Jean-Pierre Lagrue

Art Brokerage: Jean Pierre Lagrue French Artist: b. 1939. Born in Paris, France in 1939, artist Jean Pierre Lagrue studied at the École des Beaux-Arts and under artist Raymond Legueult and sculptor Hubert Yencesse. Lagrue's style is defined as "naïve-expressioniste". He expresses his view of life according to his sensibility and discards many established conditions in art. Lagrue is renowned as a rare multi-talented artist - dancer and painter. His paintings reflect vibrancy of color, movement, balance, imagination and charm as was associated with his art of dance. His versatility is remarkable- from his "characters" such as "The Gentle Servant of the Fries" to the vibrant cafes filled with people at the "Bistrot Mazarine" or "La Closeri de Lilas", to the humorous yet profound "Destiny Captures the Fragile Equilibrium of Love" where the motorcyclist captures the ballet-dancer lovers and carries them on the tightrope! His imagination and talent are remarkable! Listings wanted.
