Expressionist and master engraver, Édouard Goerg (1893-1969) trained a generation of artists at the Beaux-Arts de Paris. Discover his original drawings and lithographs above.
Édouard Goerg (1893-1969), born in Sydney to French parents, was a painter, engraver, and lithographer, one of the prominent figures of French Expressionism. His work, often tinged with satire and irony, questions societal flaws with incisive drawing and quintessential French elegance.
Trained in Paris, Goerg quickly turned to engraving and lithography, which enhanced the power of his line. Human figures with expressive postures and gazes, flower-women, witches, and street scenes create a universe both poetic and critical, rendered with dense blacks and intense contrasts.
As a professor of engraving at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, Goerg trained numerous artists, including Mario Avati, Paul Ambille, and Arnaud d'Hauterives. Jean Carzou also attended his studio at the Grande Chaumière.
