Alain Godon
Alain Godon is a French painter and sculptor. Biography Alain Godon was born 1 November 1964 in Bourges, France, and learned to draw at the age of 11 in Achicourt, France, at the side of his artist uncle. In 1985 he moved to Paris and then to Brighton (England), earning his living as a pavement graffiti artist. In 1988 in the French ski resort of Courchevel, he began the first period of what he refers to as "Infantine Art". By 1989 he had moved to Saint Tropez and started to paint his first oils on canvas.

In 2009, Alain Godon founded the "Rendez-vous Annuel des Artistes de Demain" (The Annual Festival for Artis ...
