Catalogue Note
Fille et petite fille de peintres d'origine suisse, Renée Vautier se forme sans maître attitré, suivant les conseils de Bourdelle, Pompon, ou Hernandez et devient sculpteur, utilisant le grès ou la terre cuite. Séduite par les formes naturelles des pierres brutes, elle utilise les galets, l'ardoise, le gypse, l'agathe ou encore l'améthyste pour réaliser des animaux fantastiques ou des compositions abstraites.
La galerie Vallois a consacré une exposition à Renée Vautier en 2003.
The daughter and granddaughter of painters of Swiss lineage, Renée Vautier was a self-taught artist who followed the advice of Bourdelle, Pompon and Hernandez and became a sculptor, working in stoneware and terracotta. Inspired by the natural beauty and form of rough stones, she used pebbles, slate, gypsum, agate or amethyst to create abstract compositions or fantastic animals.
