Bernard Buffet

Buffet was born in Paris, France, and studied art there at the Ã‰cole Nationale SupÃ©rieure des Beaux-Arts (National School of the Fine Arts) and worked in the studio of the painter EugÃ¨ne Narbonne. Among his classmates were Maurice Boitel and Louis Vuillermoz. Sustained by the picture-dealer Maurice Garnier, Buffet produced religious pieces, landscapes, portraits and still-lifes. In 1946, he had his first painting shown, a self-portrait, at the Salon des Moins de Trente Ans at the Galerie Beaux-Arts. He had at least one major exhibition every year. Buffet illustrated "Les Chants de Maldoror" written by Comte de LautrÃ©amont in 1952. In 1955, he was awarded the first prize by the magazine Connaissance des arts, which named the 10 best post-war artists. In 1958, at the age of 30, the first retrospective of his work was held at the Galerie Charpentier. Pierre BergÃ© was Buffet's live-in lover until BergÃ© left Buffet for Yves Saint Laurent.
