Alexandre Mairet
Born in 1880.
Died in 1947.
Alexandre Mairet was an artist whose work is situated within the Geneva art scene. A painter, printmaker and illustrator, he contributed to periodicals with anarchist and communist leanings, thereby expressing his political commitment through his art. His activity in Geneva marked his career, although details of his professional trajectory remain partially obscure.
The duality of his artistic and political commitment raises questions about the influence of his convictions on his creative production.
