Présentation de l'éditeur
Alix Aymé (1894-1989)A young student of Maurice Denis leaves France in 1919 to accompany her husband on his short mission to China. This first trip will be of great importance. In spite of a difficult period of adjustment, Alix Aymé will quickly develop a passion for the Asian continent and will remain there for more than twenty years. Eager to learn and of a determined and courageous nature, she makes multiple journeys to China, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, etc., under conditions that, at the time, required a strong character. Passionate about Asiatic pictorial techniques it is to her, together with Joseph Inguimberty, that we owe the renaissance of the Vietnamese art of lacquer that she taught, from 1934 to 1939, at the School of Fine Arts of Hanoi.Influenced by Gauguin and the Nabis, she succeeded in creating a synthesis of Indochinese styles without falling into either mannerism or exoticism. Her painting is lively and delicate ; she is a fine colorist, her line elegant and precise. It is the entire sensibility of Asia that Alix Aymé makes us perceive in her work.
