Throughout his career, Edouard Pignon practices a resolutely figurative painting, blaming abstract art to suppress the reality. The subjects of his paintings often evoke his political commitment, however, without practicing "socialist realism". Man of character who wants to be free, Edouard Pignon, a friend of Picasso, married to the art critic Helen Parmelin, constantly refuses any commitment to any movement or academy. Artist always against the stream, primarily a colorist, his works are present in most major museums in France and abroad.
To help create a museum in Marles-les-Mines, Edouard Pignon donates forty of his paintings, drawings and lithographs, as well as works by his friend Picasso (In 1951-1952, Picasso and Pignon shared a workshop in Vallauris).
