André Gisson was a French-born American painter known for his Impressionist and Post-Impressionist style of art. He was born André Gittelson on October 9, 1921, in Paris, France, and later adopted the pseudonym "Gisson" as his professional artist’s name. Gisson’s works often depicted scenes of everyday life, landscapes, still life, and portraits, and they were characterized by their vibrant colors, loose brushwork, and a sense of atmospheric light.
Gisson moved to the United States in the 1940s, where he continued to paint and eventually gained recognition for his art. He became a U.S. citizen and settled in New York City, where he maintained a successful career as an artist.
