AUGUSTE CHABAUD (France, 1882-1955). "Face". Oil on paper. Signed in the upper right corner. Measurements: 31 x 23 cm. Auguste Chabaud was a French painter and sculptor. He was born in Nimes. At the age of fourteen he enters the School of Fine Arts of Avignon. In 1899 he moved to Paris to continue his artistic training at the Académie Julian and the Ecole des Beaux-Arts. There he met Henri Matisse and André Derain. In 1900 he returned to his parents' vineyard in the south of France, as the business was affected by a crisis there. In 1901 he was forced to leave Paris again to secure his livelihood. He worked on a ship and got to know the West African coast. In the following years he became familiar with Parisian nightlife. In the Parisian district of Montmartre, where he had his studio, he painted various scenes of Parisian life. Chabaud's cubist phase began in 1911, where he also began to sculpt. In the following years he held numerous exhibitions, including the 1913 exhibition in New York, where his works were exhibited alongside those of artists such as Matisse, Derain, Vlaminck and Picasso. On his return from World War I, Chabaud settled in Graveson. From 1920 he lived his "blue period". He used Prussian blue as the only color in his works. From then on, he focused exclusively on the south of France. He painted scenes of rural life, peasants and the hills and paths of the Alpilles. He died in 1955 in Graveson. In 1992, the Regional Council of Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur inaugurated the Auguste Chabaud Museum in his honor.
