Bernard Cadène was born in 1942 in Aveyronnais in France. He could be musician, like his father as well as his grand father, after practicing violin during ten years and then bass. Nevertheless, after his high-school diploma, he chose to study art. In 1960, he joined the Ecole des Beaux-Arts of Toulouse. While studying, Bernard Cadène didn’t stop music, on the contrary, almost having a double life: student during the day, musician during the night. At the end of his studies, Bernard Cadène earned the right to be an art teacher and he earned the famous Lefranc price in 9966.
Cadène worked as an art teacher for a few years just before choosing to resign, even without his family support. He missed artistic and musical creation. However, neither painting nor music is profitable. Also, Bernard Cadène, as a father and husband, had worked in the publicity sector for 20 years.
In 1985, his passion for painting becomes too strong and Bernard Cadène decided to stop little by little his career. Few years later, he became famous and exhibited all over the world.
