Guy Dessapt
Born in the countryside of France in 1938, Guy Dessapt's youthful interest in painting culminated with professional training at the highly acclaimed the Arts Decoratifs School in Paris. Subjects originate from Dessapt's lifelong passion for travel are depicted through the merging of these visual experiences with his strikingly idiosyncratic impressionist style.
Guy Dessapt's paintings are strong in composition, rich in texture and exhibit a dazzling sense of color. His controlled use of oils produces a unique, layered interplay of dimension and theme. Like the Impressionists before him, Dessapt plays with the effects of natural light on the surface of different objects in nature. His canvases depict a place in time, changing in color and hue as time passes before him.
In Japan, Guy Dessapt is considered part of the Paris School which includes such renowned artists as Marc Chagall, Jean-Paul Cassigneul, Rouls Icart, Bernard Buffet and George Laporte. His works are highly prized by art connoisseurs worldwide.
