Fauchere has had numerous solo exhibitions throughout France since the early 1980's and in more recent years further afield in Germany, USA and Singapore. His work is included in many private collections worldwide and a number of public institutions in France.

 

His impressionistic rendering of the markets of Paris continues to gain him admiration throughout the world. His ability to capture the movement within his subjects and intensity of light and colour brought to his paintings have won him many prizes and much acclaim.

 

Claude Fauchere was born in Paris in 1936. He studied at the College des Arts Appilques at the Ecole Superieure Nationale des Metiers d'Art and later became a member of the Jury of the French Artists Society and of the Salon d'Automne. Still it is his love of painting that inspires him. "I try to make the viewer participate in my enjoyment, in the pleasure of creating. Let us not forget that painting like music and literature is first of all an evocative pleasure".
