Gen Paul (1895-1975) Born as Eugène Paul in a house in Montmartre on the Rue Lepic painted by Van Gogh, he began drawing and painting as a child.

His father died when he was only ten years old and Gen Paul was trained to work in decorative furnishings. He served in the French army during World War I and was wounded twice, losing one of his legs. During his convalescence, he returned to painting, and at Le Bateau-Lavoir he became friends with Juan Gris who helped him a great deal.

Claude Venard (1913-1999) Venard was born in France 1913, he dedicated himself fully to painting at the age of seventeen he studied at the École des Arts Appliques for six years, having fled the Académie des Beaux-Arts after just 48 hours. In 1938 he signed the Rupture manifesto and participated in the first exhibition of the influential group Forces Nouvelles, alongside Gruber and Tal-Coat at the Galerie BillietVorms. A close affinity subsequently developed among these painters and together they were instrumental in forging the aesthetic of the immediate post-war period of the Ecole de Paris. Venard quickly became known for his rich impasto and varying texture.

Venard received critical acclaim and was personally championed by Andre Salmon and Waldemar George, who described his painting as “Apocalyptic art! Beings and everyday things suddenly regain their meaning. Emotional values are once more felt”

Samuel Edmond Waller (1850-1903) Old English country life strongly attracted his imagination, and furnished him with the romantic incidents which formed the subjects of his most notable pictures, and their backgrounds were frequently taken from Elizabethan houses in his native county or elsewhere in England.

Many of his pictures are well known as reproductions and engravings throughout the English-speaking world. The originals are in many cases in private ownership in America and Australia as well as in England. Waller’s great knowledge of horses and his skill in representing them gave his work much vogue among sportsmen. He took great pains in studying animals, and related some of his experiences in articles contributed to the ‘Art Journal’ (1893-6). His pictures usually tell a story effectively and dramatically, and has been described as both a Victorian and a narrative artist.

Andre Lanskoy (1903 - 1976) Lanskoy was born in Moscow, but left Russia after the Russian Revolution, moving to Paris in 1921. He studied at the famously progressive Académie de la Grande Chaumière, painting portraits and still lifes in vivid colors with thick applications of paint, inspired by Vincent van Gogh, Chaïm Soutine, and Henri Matisse. He was accepted into the Paris Salon d’Automne and exhibited with them in the mid-1920s, where his work was noticed by German art critic and dealer Wilhelm Uhde, who arranged his first solo exhibition.

In the 1930s, Lanskoy abandoned his representational works for abstraction, influenced by the paintings of Wassily Kandinsky and Paul Klee. He concentrated on creating patterns and rhythms of color and light in his works, and also produced collaged and mosaic pieces, illustrated books, and designed tapestries. Beginning in the 1950s, Lanskoy exhibited his work internationally to critical acclaim, at institutions including the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., the Centre Pompidou in Paris, the Royal Academy of Arts in London, and documenta in Kassel, Germany. He died in 1976 in Paris..
