André Tondu. Happy Life exhibition
from 12 December 2015 to 23 January 2016
André Tondu, painter of “Happy Life”? André Tondu, painter of the beautiful azure of the skies, of the green of lawns, of trees and horizons, of happy notes which seem to pierce through foliage, of gentle air, warm without a doubt, which circulates from canvas to canvas? Yes, of course, for André Tondu was a little bit of a magician…
For years, this creator born in Jura in 1903, then awarded the prestigious Prix de Rome in 1931, gave a rare charm to nudes, bouquets, still life, genre scenes.
The Cristel Editeur d’Art Centre gathered 35 of his works for the “André Tondu. Happy Life” exhibition in Saint-Malo.
