Foudral Benjamin

Benjamin Foudral has been an Art history doctoral student since 2013, under the supervision of Barthélémy Jobert at the University of Paris-Sorbonne (André-Chastel Centre). He is currently writing a thesis on the Belgian painter Léon Frederic (1856-1940) and compiling a catalogue raisonné of his work. His objective is to put this original artist’s art back in its creative context and in that of European idealism in painting. In collaboration with Thierry Laugée and Olivier Schuwer, he organised a study day on 11 April 2015 on The Refigured Christ (1848-1939) as part of the LabEx EHNE “Writing a new history of Europe”.
