Gaston Sébire was born on August 18th, 1920 in Saint-Samson, Calvados in northwestern France, and grew up in Bretteville-sur-Odon. He began to paint around eighteen years old, studying at the Maitrise Sainte Evode in Rouen. Sébire joined the Post Office to make ends meet, working at night and painting during the day. In 1951 Sébire moved to Paris, and one year later held his first exhibition at the Galerie Visconti. In 1953 the Marquis of Cuevas asked him to design the costumes and scenery of L’Ange gris, a ballet based on orchestrations of Claude Debussy’s Suite bergamasque by André Caplet and Gustave Cloëz. During that same year Sébire won both the Prix de la Critique and the Prix Casa Valasquez, the latter giving him the opportunity to spend a year and a half working in Spain. Winning the Greenshields Foundation Prize in 1957 allowed him to continue this study for another two years. In 1960 Sébire returned to Normandy, and his works from this period show influence from the Neo-Realist movement. He continued to participate in many group exhibitions in Paris, including the Salon of Independants beginning in 1956, the Salon of Tuileres and the Comparisons Salon beginning in 1962, and the Salon des Artistes Francais beginning in 1964. His work also appeared in many international shows in London, Munich, Tokyo, and Washington, D.C. In 1966 Sébire won the Grand Prix of the Biennale of Trouville, and two years later he was awarded the Gold Medal of the Salon des Artistes Francais as well as the Medal of Honour of the Salon de la Marine. In 1975 he became the official painter of the Marine National French Navy, and began to concentrate more on lithography. In 1985 a retrospective of the artist’s figurative paintings was presented at the Musee de la Marine in Paris. The Amateurs Rouennais d’Art published a literary work including his biography and more than 200 of his pieces in 1994. He passed away in 2001.
