He was born on March 12, 1888 in La Havre, France as the brother of the well-known French Fauvist painter Raoul Dufy, who would serve as a mentor to Dufy throughout his career. Though he had no formal training, he decided to become a painter after seeing a gallery exhibition of Modern Art in La Havre—he had his first show in 1914 at Galerie Berthe Weill. For almost 30 years, Dufy was employed at a porcelain manufacturer hand-painting decorative designs of animals and flowers, for which he would win a gold medal at the 1925 L’exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs—the very exhibition where the term Art Deco was first coined. Dufy was for a time the next-door neighbor to Georges Braque, who would encourage the younger artist to experiment with Cubism. He died on May 12, 1964 in La Boissière, France.“ --- SUBSCRIBE: Facebook: Facebook Group ’LearnMoreFromMasters’: Instagram: Contact: LearnFromMasters01@ LIST OF ARTISTS already posted on LearnFromMasters: --- MUSIC: Kevin MacLeod = Meditation Impromptu (01/02/03) Meditation Impromptu 01/02/03 by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution license () Source: Artist: --- Thank you! #LearnFromMasters #FrenchPainter #Impressionism #OnlineArtGallery #CollectionOfPaintings #ArtHistory #JeanDufy
