About Philippe Henri Noyer Philippe Noyer was born in Lyon, France in June of 1917, and grew up alongside the expansion of Surrealist art. He studied at the École des Roches, and afterwards the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Lyon. He then moved to Paris, where he studied at the Paul Colin School of Art. He married Nora Kern in 1939 and they would have four children: Denis Paul, Corinne, Laurence, and Ariel. Noyer started his painting career in 1943. That same year he met the famous Paris art dealer, Emmanuel David, who promoted world-known "School of Paris" painters from 1943 - 1950. David immediately put Noyer on contract with the prestigious Drouant-David Gallery of Paris. The Gallery gave him his first one-man show in 1947, which immediately crowned him with success. Noyer's acceptance in the United States can be attributed to Robert Goldstein, the former President of the 20th Century Fox movie company. In 1949, the Gallery gave twenty of Noyer's paintings on consignment to an American art dealer who had agreed to organize an exhibition of them in the United States. The American dealer, however, was a heavy gambler and one night, before the show, he suffered unprecedented losses and was forced to sell off the paintings without a profit. The buyer turned out to be Robert Goldstein who was so pleased with his purchase that he distributed the art to his friends, including the legendary Samuel Goldwyn, who, in turn, made Noyer's name known on the West Coast. A deep and long lasting friendship between Noyer and Goldstein ensued. In 1960, Noyer was in a difficult financial situation, Goldstein jetted Noyer from Paris to London and organized an auction at which all of Noyer's current paintings were sold to Goldstein's friends. In those following years, Noyer was commissioned to paint the portraits of dozens of personalities including Elizabeth Taylor and Dinah Shore. As his art matured, he put aside this career as a portraitist to devote himself entirely to the delicate, sophisticated, slim, long-limbed ladies who had progressively replaced children as his favorite subjects. Throughout his career, Noyer's art has always remained quite unique. He seems to have experienced every kind of modern art without being influenced by any of them. Modernist yet slightly Surrealist, he compensated for the rigor of his method by the remarkable freedom of his subjects. The elements Noyer uses in his paintings - the women, the monuments, the animals and the flowers - come alive under the brush which translates them in strictly realist terms in compositions that are the fruits of his fantasy and intellectual or literary reminiscences. Noyer died in 1985 from the consequences of a surgery he had the previous year. He showed his work in some of the world’s most prestigious galleries including Drouant-David in Paris, the Hammer Gallery in New York, Acosta in Los Angeles, Chicago’s Callard Gallery, and Gallerie 65 in Cannes. He produced more than 2000 oil paintings and watercolors, which continue to be highly sought after and collectable, and which private collections, museums, and galleries worldwide display.
