Fernand Dubuis

Fernand Dubuis (1908–1991) was a painter, draughtsman and printmaker. He left Valais for Paris before 1930 and encountered artists working in the wake of Cubism. His postwar paintings increasingly explored angular lines, structured planes and colour. The Valais museum’s account of Le Violoncelliste distinguishes its circa 1947 version from an earlier 1946 composition; the study listed in the 1946 BasArt exhibition is not thereby identified as the museum painting.

BasArt separately documents exhibition activity in 1946. Those catalogue connections remain; no current holding or exact object identity is inferred.
