Life
Life
The son of a veterinarian, self-taught, his tastes for art and literature earned him a paternal anathema. At 19 years he met Gaëtane Lamarche-Vadel whose name he joined to his. A graduate from the École pratique des hautes études in art sociology (1970), he subsequently taught at the Paris-I Panthéon-Sorbonne University and then at ICART in 1979. A poet and short stories writer, Bernard Lamarche-Vadel composed a work of art critic in the 1970s and founded the magazine Artistes. He also organized numerous exhibitions ("Jean Degottex. Rétrospective", 1978, musée d'Art moderne (ARC), Paris / « Finir en beauté », juin 1981) He committed suicide in 2000 aged 50, in his castle of La Rongère. His photographic collection was stored at Musée Nicéphore-Niépce in Chalon-sur-Saône. An exhibition devoted to his work of art critic was presented in 2009 by the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris.
