Jean Fautrier (1898-1964) was a French painter, engraver, and sculptor. A major figure in modern art, he is considered one of the pioneers of lyrical abstraction of the School of Paris (alongside Pierre Soulages, Hans Hartung, Olivier Debré, etc.).
Deeply affected by Nazi atrocities against civilians, he created the famous Hostages series. A friend of André Malraux and Georges Bataille, Jean Fautrier embodies one of the major trends in art of the second half of the 20th century, straddling figuration and abstraction.
His work is featured in major museums, such as the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Centre Pompidou in Paris, and the Tate in London.
