It was in 1947 that their paths first crossed, when they served on the jury of the \u00c9cole des Beaux-Arts, and then in 1948 at the Salon d\u2019Automne, where Bernard Buffet was admitted as a full member. But their true friendship was born much later, in 1974, when Brayer actively worked to have him elected to the Acad\u00e9mie des Beaux-Arts. This was achieved on January 22, 1975.
A selection of works from 1947 to 1998 offers an insight into the great variety of Bernard Buffet\u2019s work. This exhibition, An Artists\u2019 Friendship, <\/em>pays tribute to this rare relationship, marked by deep friendship and mutual admiration. To celebrate it, works by Yves Brayer echo those of Bernard Buffet, in a sensitive and silent dialogue, just as Bernard Buffet\u2019s works revisit the permanent collections.<\/p>\n\n To visit from May 7 to November 9, 2025 at the Mus\u00e9e Yves Brayer in Les Baux-de-Provence.<\/p>\n\n For all information: www.yvesbrayer.com<\/p>\n\n OPENING HOURS: ADMISSION:Virtual Tour of the Museum<\/a><\/h3>\n\n
