To keep in mind

Denis Frémond, born in Le Havre into a wealthy family, received a Calvinist education. After studying at the École Boulle in Paris, he briefly turned away from painting to focus on drama before definitively returning to painting in 1976. He first explored a whimsical style, gaining recognition in the 1980s as a press illustrator and comic book author, notably for Pilote and L’Écho des savanes. In 1991, Frémond dedicated himself exclusively to painting, influenced by Johannes Vermeer, whose unique use of light inspires his work. His pieces, often compared to novels by Patrick Modiano for their familiar oddness and nostalgia, are imbued with dreamlike qualities, combining real elements to create subtly unreal scenes. Among his other notable influences are Sigmund Freud and Maurice Ravel, the latter being particularly referenced in his painting "Portrait en Gaspard de la nuit," a tribute to Ravel's famous piano triptych.
