Rare oil  painting from Pierre Wemaëre.  Wemaëre was a pupil at Fernand Léger's school, L’Académie de l’Art contemporain, where his fellow pupils included a person to whom he remained a steadfast friend, the Danish artist Asger Jørgensen (who later changed his last name to Jorn). Unlike Jorn, Wemaëre wanted to preserve the existing social order - the army, the Church - but they have profound respect for each other's political opinions. Their friendship and partnership lasted until Jorn's death in 1973, and Wemaëre was introduced to the Danish art world by Jorn. Wemaëre has often been described as a weaver, that is not true, he was a painter even if not a member of CoBrA.One of Wemaëre's and Jorn's first common projects was to enlarge Léger's sketch painting "Le Transport des forces" for the world exhibition in Paris in 1937. Then, Wemaëre and Jorn came into conflict with Léger's preoccupation with the aesthetics of the Machine Age in their search for innovation and their interest in the spontaneous form of abstract painting.In 1938 Wemaëre and Jorn exhibited together at Galleri Dam & Fønss in Copenhagen. During his stay in Copenhagen Wemaëre visited the African collection of Carl Nutzhorn Kjersmeier (now at the National Museum of Denmark). When back in Paris , influenced by so-called "primitive art", Wemaëre executed "totem-paintings".
