Master printmaker,
born in Marseille, he learned the techniques of classic
engraving in 1936 in Paris. In 1960, he added to
the classic processes the technique of etching with carborundum
invented by his friend Henri Goetz. In the years
1969-73 Papart taught printmaking at the University of
Paris VIII-Vincennes. He continues to make his own
plates and to supervise the hand printing of his prints.
One of the
most intriguing intellectual concepts which Papart achieves
in his two-dimensional, semi-cubistic style is a "window"
through which the viewer senses the past or future, or
even another time or place. This development has
become more pronounced since 1981 and in recent years
it is seen even more graphically in such works as Circle,
Indian Summer, Dreams, and Silent Woman.
It has been said the Papart does not "paint,"
he "composes." His compositions come
together in a symphony of line, shape and color.
Papart contends
that he never attributes any specific meaning to his work.
He feels that each painting has its own meaning and needs
no interpretation from him. Papart's paintings,
in his own words, "force the viewer to think, and
it is for the viewer to respond to the art based on his
own personal experiences."
