}} Louis Levacher (15 August 1934, Fécamp – 7 March 1983, Harfleur) was a French painter and sculptor. LineageThe Levacher family first appears in the archives of the Contremoulins region around the end of the eighteenth century and seems to have originally come from the region of Valmont. Subsequently, the older branch of the family moved to Montivilliers, and the younger branch to Criquebeuf in Caux, Yport, Saint-Valery in Caux, and finally to Fécamp. The members of this younger branch made their living as millers, then farmers, eventually becoming rope makers. Under the French Restoration, the Levachers of Fécamp gradually became merchants and ship-owners, ascending into the local local petite bourgeoisie and enjoying a quick rise in social status. The family, however, would only hold this position for little less than a century.{{citation needed|date=February 2018}} Louis Levacher's grandfather, a ship-owner and merchant also named Louis (1877–1949), was awarded the cross of Verdun and handed over the management of his business to his wife, Marguerite Grivel. His son, Louis' father (1911–1988) owned a smokehouse whose buildings still belong in part to the family. Louis' mother, Denise Thomas (1913–2003), was a seamstress from a Doudeville family that dates back to the seventeenth century. Early life and backgroundLouis (1934–1983), born five years before the start of the Second World War, was the only child of the Levacher family. During the war, Louis' parents divorced. While his grandfather's endeavors continued in spite of the war, his father's were hampered by his deployment in 1940. He married Michèle Moreau (1942–2012){{When|date=February 2019}}. Soon after his marriage, Louis had to leave for Algeria{{Why|date=February 2019}}. They had three children: two sons and a daughter. The eldest son was named "Louis", continuing the family tradition. Louis Levacher worked as a driver, as well as a painter and sculptor: it is this artistic work for which he is remembered. Art was very much a family endeavor for the Levachers: Louis and his wife Michèle worked together, creating works with a highly original, avant-garde style. Michèle exhibited her work in various places, including the Basque country. While well-recognized both in Normandy and beyond, their art did not make them rich. His daughter also specialized in collage and sculpture, exhibiting her work in the region several times. Style and techniqueLevacher used multiple techniques in his art, including painting and sculpture. His paintings, mixed figurative and abstract, often use large formats. His sculptures mix genres, with wood being used to represent saints or being formed into richly detailed totems. Exhibitions in France{{columns-list|colwidth=30em|
