From studies blending the fine arts and architecture, he kept throughout his life a rigorously structured artistic line, highly drawn graphic works and a marked predilection for bright colors. This aesthetic approach allowed him to develop a particularly impressive and varied body of work throughout his career. During the second half of the 20th century, his talent was abundantly expressed through commercial advertising and cultural illustration. He designed numerous large-scale advertising campaigns as well as memorable institutional posters, notably for the airline Air Gabon or for occupational hazard prevention. His work deeply left its mark on the world of popular music from the 1950s to the 1980s. Indeed he designed the jackets and album covers for icons of French chanson such as Johnny Hallyday and Eddie Mitchell. Paralleling his commissioned works, Maxime Dufour built a remarkable personal pictorial output. His creations on canvas or on cardboard, often signed by his forename "MAXIME", evolve toward abstract compositions and acrylics with strong geometric forms. Regularly presented at public auctions in France, his paintings continue to testify to the richness of his colorful and rigorous visual universe.
