Notes

"Between 1952 and 1958, Buffet’s works were exhibited at the Salon des Jeunes Peintres, the Salon des Tuileries, the Salon des Peintres témoins de leurs temps (Salon of painters of contemporary life) and the Venice Biennale. His paintings would be seen in Geneva, Zurich, Venice, New York, London, Milan, Rome, Amsterdam and at the Galerie Lucien Blanc in Aix-en-Provençe. In short, he was fast becoming an international figure whose distinctive style found patrons everywhere. Throughout this flurry of exhibitions, Buffet would present his work on a specific theme every February at the Galerie Drouant-David and Galerie Visconti."
