André Brasilier is a French painter, watercolourist, lithographer and ceramist. Born in Saumur en 1929 in the Maine-et-Loire region, his first subjects are the animals of the countryside and horses in particular, as symbols of life according to him. They remain present in his work throughout his career. Following studies at the Beaux-Arts de Paris and the Villa Medicis, he benefits from numerous exhibitions from 1959 onwards, while contributing to diverse projects such as the construction of theatre sets and more recently the decoration of a chapel in Correze in 2008.

Brasilier does not consider his art as realism, but primarily as "transfigurative", expressing the real in his own way. His work is now presented in numerous major collections, including the Musée des Beaux Arts of Nantes, the Deutsche Bank Art Collection and the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum in the United States.
