HENRI PLISSON

If Lucien Simon had not been his first teacher, one could write of Henri Plisson that he was the spiritual son of Paul Signac, whose free, vivid and colourful touch Henri tirelessly admired. But he had more than one string to his bow: ceramics, which taught him about transparency. Thus, in the course of his very long life, he developed a palette both classic and modern, whatever the medium was. Nowadays, his works can be found in the Museum of Fine Arts of Boston, the Mohamed Mahmoud Khalil Museum of Cairo, the Sainte-Croix Museum of Poitiers, the Museum of Menton, the Museum of Modern Art of Paris and in different public places.
