Charles Camoin (23 September 1879 – 20 May 1965) was
a French expressionist landscape painter associated with the Fauves.
Born in
Marseille, France, Camoin met Henri Matisse in Gustave Moreau's class at the
Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris. Matisse and his friends (including Camoin, Henri
Manguin, Albert Marquet, Georges Rouault, André Derain and Maurice de
Vlaminck), formed the original group of artists labeled the Fauves (meaning
"the wild beasts") for their wild, expressionist-like use of color.
Camoin always remained close to Matisse. He painted a portrait of Matisse,
which is in the permanent collection of the Pompidou Museum in Paris.
Charles Camoin's works have been widely shown in France and
are in such major collections as the Musée d'Art Moderne de la ville de Paris
in addition to the Centre Georges Pompidou and many of the French regional
museums. In 1955, he was awarded the Prix du President de la Republique at the
Biennale of Menton. He died in Paris on 20 May 1965. More on Charles Camoin
