PAUL-HENRI BOURGUIGNON
Mid-century modernist Paul-Henri Bourguignon (1906-1988) has had seven
successful solo shows since his estate came to Ventana. Born in Brussels and
educated at the Académie des Beaux-Arts and the Université Libre de Bruxelles,
Bourguignon was the art critic for the Brussels newspaper Le Phare Dimanche in the
1940s. That experience combined with extensive travels in Europe, Africa, and the
Americas provided the foundation for his impressive career from 1950 until his
death in 1988. (Estate represented by VFA since 2013.)
