from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jacques Dupin (born March 4, 1927 in Privas , † October 27, 2012 in Paris ) was a French poet , writer and art critic .

life and work

Jacques Dupin was the son of Pierre Dupin, the medical director of a mental hospital, and Léonie Dupin, née Descamps. He spent his childhood in the Ardèche department . After graduating from Baccalauréat in 1944, he went to Paris, where he studied law, art history and political science. He came into contact with art through visits to museums, such as the Louvre , the Musée National d'Art Moderne and art galleries. He dealt with contemporary poetry and surrealism , read Franz Kafka , Maurice Blanchot and William Faulkner . He met René Char , who wrote a foreword for Dupin's first publication in 1950, Cendrier du voyage . Although he was seen as its successor, it developed in opposite directions from work to work. His texts aroused the admiration of authors and artists such as Antoni Tàpies ; Paul Auster translated his poems into English.

Dupin has worked for many galleries, mainly the Maeght Foundation and the Lelong Gallery. The work meant that he met many artists of modern art , such as Alberto Giacometti and Joan Miró , whose biographies he wrote.

Dupin received the National Prize for Poetry in 1988. In 2009 the Fundació Joan Miró in Barcelona dedicated an exhibition to Dupin entitled Miro - Dupin. Art i poesia .
