Life and career

[edit | edit source]

Born in Rémilly on 3 December 1938, Lapointe attended secondary school in Metz[2] and subsequently the École nationale supérieure d'art et de design de Nancy (fr). From 1963 to 1965, he was a student at the École supérieure des arts décoratifs de Strasbourg.[3] In 1967, he became a teacher at the latter school, where he founded the illustration workshop.[4] He also taught a generation of illustrators, such as Béhé (fr),[5] Laurent Hirn (fr),[6] Jean-François Kieffer (fr),[7] Nadine Brass (fr),[8] Étienne Jung (fr),[9] Jérôme Jouvray (fr),[10] and Blutch.[11] In 1972, his workshop exhibited a collection of his works.[12]

In 1971, Lapointe illustrated his first book, Pierre l'ébouriffé.[2] He collaborated with Bayard Presse, Okapi (fr), Phosphore (fr), and J'aime lire in the 1970s and 80s to showcase his illustrations.[2] He also illustrated novels published by Éditions Gallimard, such as the French editions of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Adventures of Huckleberry Finn.[13] He also created a collection for the publishing house, titled "Les secrets de l'image".[3] In 1982, Lapointe won the Premio Grafico Fiera at the Bologna Children's Book Fair for the collection.[14] In 1996, a book fair in Bordeaux organized the exhibition Mettre en scène une feuille blanche, dedicated to Lapointe's works of the 1970s.[15] In 2016, the Association des artistes indépendants d'Alsace organized an exhibition in his honor at the Maison des Arts de Strasbourg titled Personnages en quête d'histoire.[16]

Lapointe died in Valréas on 6 October 2024, at the age of 85.[17]
