compared to the extensive information about American artists.
Paul Conte was born in Nice, France, in 1947, and still lives and works there. In the summer of 2012, he was decorating the walls of a Saint-Paul de Vence chapel. Conte defines himself as a “peintre à programme”, by which he means that he needs a subject matter outside of painting itself to build an oeuvre and awaken memories.
His universe is peopled with angels, gods, heroes and saints, reminiscent of a long heritage of religious and history painting.
