Jean-Jacques Morvan
Born : 1928Died : 2005Documented citizenships : France
French painter Jean-Jacques Morvan, born in Paris in 1928 and deceased in 2005, also works as an actor, journalist, critic and singer-songwriter. After entering the École nationale supérieure des arts décoratifs in 1945, he presents his first solo exhibition in Paris at the Galerie La Boétie in 1951. He is selected for the prix de la Critique in 1951 and 1956, as well as for the prize of the magazine *Le Peintre* in 1956.
The sea is explicitly addressed in two solo exhibitions in Paris, held at the Galerie Bellechasse in 1958 and then at the Galerie Espace in 1959. In 1961, the Musée des Jacobins in Morlaix devotes *Dix ans de peinture* to him. From 1959, Morvan divides his time between Paris, Brittany and Saumane-de-Vaucluse, where he sets up his studio in a former oil mill. As an official painter of the French Navy, he is notably featured at the Musée d’art de Toulon in 1992 in the exhibition *Mers et océans*; in 2000, the Musée de la résistance in Amsterdam hosts an exhibition devoted to his painting, *Un cri sans voix – Départ et répression*.
This profile brings together identity references for Jean-Jacques Morvan and paintings, drawings and works on paper documented in auction catalogues.
