Bernard Morteyrol

Bernard Morteyrol lived in Paris for almost 40 years. He then came to settle in the Var, first in Aups, for 5 years, then in Villecroze where he has lived and worked since 1985. However, he did not become an artist who painted only landscapes, only the trees, the hills, the flowers and the skies of the South. He remained what he always was, a man of today, informed, open, open to others and to what is happening around him. He chose to live in a village, he appreciates and loves this life. But that doesn't mean he's withdrawn or cut off from the modern world. So, let's say for the sake of simplicity that Morteyrol is someone from the city and the countryside, from television and nature, from the authenticity of life and the artificiality of stereotypes and clichés. This "and" is important because it constitutes the sign of the addition.
