                LEON GARD

                                        (1901-1979)

      FIFTY YEARS OF PAINTING AND COMBAT

                                        AGAINST

                     PAINTING NON-FIGURATIVE

 

  "One holds for truth what is commonly marked, officially, even if the falseness of the thing is obvious. Also, the current opinion is it always a little suspect, in theory, to the rigorous arguers ", said Leon gard.

   Apart from making known the painter Leon Gard, this site is intended for all those which are not satisfied by the evolution of art since a hundred years or which wonder about the reality of the genius of certain great names as of the value of the theories which accompanied this evolution, as on the role that play the commercial speculation, the media and modern publicity for the perenniality of the ones and others.

   With through the writings of the painter Leon Gard, we invite them to reconsider, even to discover this long page of history of the modern art and to perhaps have of it a clearer idea  -- beyond the prejudices and conformism of nonconformism supplied with certain intellectual spheres.

   We urge them, in addition, to make us share of their own reflexions.
