  • Biography from Millon & Associes

    André Sureda, a French artist, was a gifted student of William Bouguereau and Gabriel Ferrier at the Beaux-Arts in Paris. He first exhibited with Les Artistes français in 1894 and discovered Algeria in 1896 while visiting his sister. Sureda joined the French Orientalists in 1900 and devoted himself entirely to the Maghreb from 1910 onwards, returning every year to Algeria. He lived in Tlemcen from 1911 until the end of the war, studying the Deià Jewish communities and painting Berber women in Morocco. Settling in Paris after 1922, he continued to exhibit his North African works, which were highly regarded by leading critics.
