In the early twentieth century when the fundamental concepts of art are questioned, Suzanne Tourte attended an unrestrained competition between artists who are seeking new ways of expression: audacity of Fauvism, Cubism assertion, birth of abstraction, expressionism and aggressiveness as other ... then the "return to order" in World War II. At the heart of this turmoil, Suzanne Tourte has created his own universe. His early works are figurative frankly. It then evolved into a period called "windings to" where the contours of his characters is identified by a stroke.
