Raoul Bruckert (1930–2004) was a painter, jazz musician and textile designer from Lyon, whose unique career reflects a creativity fuelled by several artistic disciplines. Trained at the École des Beaux-Arts in Mâcon, then at the École des Beaux-Arts in Lyon, from which he graduated in the decoration department in 1949, he developed a dual passion for painting and music at a very early age. As a saxophonist, he helped found the Hot Club de Lyon in 1948 – an iconic venue on the Lyon jazz scene – whilst also running a textile design studio and creating scarf patterns for Parisian haute couture houses.
In his paintings, his love of rhythm, improvisation and colour is reflected in an expressive world that gradually evolved from figurative art towards freer compositions, at times verging on abstraction.
Landscapes, scenes of everyday life, flowers and musicians are among his favourite subjects. Deeply attached to Lyon, where he lives and works, he also draws inspiration from the landscapes and colours of Roussillon, in Provence, where he spends every summer. His work has been featured in solo exhibitions at several galleries in Lyon, including La Jeune Parque in 1962, L’Œil écoute in 1964, Le Lutrin in 1967 and 1991, and the Galerie Hermès in 1994.
A distinctive figure on the Lyon art scene, Raoul Bruckert leaves behind a body of work that reflects his artistic journey: free, colourful and deeply influenced by the dialogue between the arts.
