Pierre Bettencourt

Pierre Bettencourt (1917-2006) was a French writer, publisher, and printer. He was born in Neuilly-sur-Seine, France and was the son of the founder of the cosmetics company L'Oreal, but chose a career in the arts rather than business.

Bettencourt was involved in the French literary scene and was associated with the Surrealist and Lettrist movements. He published works by several notable French writers, including Georges Bataille, Jean-Paul Sartre, and André Breton. He was also a printer and produced fine art prints and books, many of which were illustrated by prominent artists such as Max Ernst, Joan Miró, and Francis Bacon.
