ROGER LERSY (1920–2004) Piano Lithograph Signed and dated lower left: R. LERCY / 58 Numbered lower right: 46 / 150 Height: 55 cm - Width: 44.5 cm (visible area) History: This lithograph was created for Roger Lersy’s exhibition at the Galerie Fricker from May 9 to June 7, 1958, at 177 Boulevard Haussmann Roger Lersy is a painter, mosaic artist, sculptor, interior designer, and composer. He began learning the piano at a very young age and studied for three years at the School of Applied Arts. His work is characterized by the creation of stained-glass windows, sculptures, and mosaics, while his musical output is devoted to chamber and orchestral music, as well as some film and stage scores. His visual art is closely linked to his musical works. Roger Lersy himself said: “For me, music is an extension of painting, which in turn becomes an extension of music.” His aesthetic is based on the notion of harmony among the arts to achieve the harmony of Art itself. This is particularly evident in the series of twenty-nine *Vitraux* for clarinet, saxophone, cello, and percussion at the Church of Saint Laurent in Longlaville. He exhibited his paintings in various galleries in Paris and abroad between 1954 and 1988, and the Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris holds several of his works.
