Born in Paris in 1913 into a working-class family from the Creuse region, André Fougeron developed an art that transcended the political choices of his generation by placing humanity at the heart of his aesthetic research. In 1939, he joined the French Communist Party, to which he remained loyal throughout his life. The exhibition, thanks to numerous prestigious loans, offers a true retrospective of a complex and fascinating artist who developed an art that transcended the political choices of his generation and placed humanity—particularly the working class—at the heart of a remarkably coherent aesthetic and philosophical reflection.
