In het leven van Jean Dubuffet
Het hele leven1940–1944
The wine business at Bercy under the German Occupation
During the German Occupation of France Dubuffet developed his wine business at Bercy. Years later, in an autobiographical text, he boasted of having made substantial profits by supplying wine to the Wehrmacht.
1942
He resolves to devote himself to art again
In 1942 Dubuffet decided to devote himself to art again. He drew subjects from everyday life, such as people sitting in the Paris Métro or walking in the country, and painted in strong unbroken colors recalling the palette of Fauvism and the Brücke painters, often placing figures in a very cramped space.
1943
Limbour brings Jean Paulhan to his studio
In 1943 his childhood friend, the writer Georges Limbour, took Jean Paulhan to Dubuffet's studio; the artist's work was unknown at that time. Paulhan was impressed and the meeting proved a turning point; in 1944 an important relationship between the two began.
1944
First solo show at Galerie René Drouin
Dubuffet's first solo show opened in October 1944 at the Galerie René Drouin in Paris, marking his third attempt to become an established artist.
