About Jean Fusaro

  • Biography

    Jean Fusaro was born June 19th, 1925 in Marseilles, France and currently lives and works in Lyon. He was a student at the School of Fine Arts in Lyon for five years and became a teacher there until 1970.

    He holds an important place in what has been called the School of Lyon, which includes painters such as Andre Cottavoz (1922-2012), Jean Couty (1907-1991), Jacques Truphemus (b. 1922) and others.

    His style, influenced by the School of Paris and Pierre Bonnard, is lively and colorful, with a touch of willful naivete, often reminding one of Raoul Dufy.

    He has appeared often at the Salon d'Automne in Paris and has had many one-man shows around the world including in London, Paris and Tokyo.
