Rémy Lejeune

15 years old, decision is made to move to Paris in order to join the Académe Charpentier and get prepared for the admission competition to l'École nationale supérieure des Métiers d'Art.

Marcel Sauvage, a French art critic writes a laudatory review about his works entitled The power and diversity of drawing.

[1] He participates in a group show, Pointe et burin [2] (galerie Vendôme), his first engravings are exhibited at the Club du Panthéon (Paris).

This title is due to R. Forgas (painter and professor) intervening with Jean Cardot (sculptor and member of the Institut de France ) focusing on the talent of Rémy Lejeune.

Rémy Lejeune is thus one of the first -if not the first- draftsman of his generation to devote himself to realism and surrealism, through the moving purity of line and form, as well as the sensual and spiritual brilliance of the motifs.
