ALPHONSE QUIZET
French, 1885-1955

Born in Paris, Alphonse Leon Quizet became an important member of the School of Montmartre.This designation refers to a group of painters dwelling in the area of Montmartre, France, in the early twentieth century rather than a specific school of painting. The description connotes the camaraderie of this bohemian area of pre-war Paris and the spirit of friendship and artistic communion shared amongst these friends, made-up primarily of Jewish immigrants, who gave a multiplicity of styles to the Modernist movement.Quizet exhibited in the National, Independent, and Autumn salons of the city.Maurice Utrillo considered Quizet his guide, teacher, and councilor.
