Jean Mauboulès was born on 16 August 1943 in Poey-de-Lescar in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques. At the age of 19 he went to Paris where he studied architecture and took courses at the École des Beaux-Arts. Until 1966 Jean Mauboules' painting was oriented towards surrealism. In the 1960s he switched from painting to plastic design, working with glass. Since 1968 he has lived and worked in the canton of Solothurn and in Paris. Since the 1970s he has created related thematic groups of collages, reliefs, sculptures and objects. Glass, iron and steel are the most common materials, but rarely wood and stone. In 1984 he exhibited at the Kunstmuseum in Bern, followed in 1986 by a retrospective at the Kunstmuseum Solothurn. In addition to Switzerland he exhibits regularly in Germany, France, Portugal, the Netherlands and the United States. In 1987 he won the Living Works Prize of the Canton of Solothurn, in 1996 the Art Prize of the Canton of Solothurn and in 1997 was appointed Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters by the French Ministry of Culture.
