He studied under the master Maurice Brianchon, Jules Cavailles and François Desnoyer in the Ecole National Supérieure des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, where he befriended René Genis.

Guy Bardone, who studied at the École de Paris under Brianchon, Cavailles and Desnoyer, is characterized to this day by his own painting style, which can be seen in the tradition of his role models Bonnard and Courbet and is characterized by an old master image and a cleverly applied color scheme distinguished. His still lifes, landscapes and interiors have been exhibited worldwide and represented internationally in museums and collections.

In order to be able to describe Guy Bardone and his painting more precisely, one should refer to the influences and backgrounds that have determined what we now understand by the classical French painting school, a painting that is much more individual and intellectual than, for example, Germany for an artist to actually develop his style in person. Bardone is here as a typical representative of a generation that has obviously taken up the ideas of Bonnard and Courbet and developed for themselves. So Guy Bardone is certainly one of the "traditional" from the area of "École de Paris". The various streams of the Paris school of the post-war period have and have influenced Bardone (especially in the 60s). It is striking how much, or how much more than comparable artists, he has remained faithful to his style, a style that lives off the balance of his compositional skills but is obviously marked by the intensity of his color scheme and the intensity of his contrast media the typical "Bardone blue" correspond in the first place so much to his nature. His intense paintings were supplemented by the famous lithographs at Mourlot, where Picasso, Braque and especially Chagall worked and where Bardone's color reproduction of his landscapes has been so successful. Even the watercolors by Bardone are never pale, although here much more sensitive currents are recognizable.

Guy Bardone has been exhibited in international museums and galleries. works by Guy Bardone's works include the Musee national d'Art Moderne, Paris and the Bibliothèque nationale de France and the Musee des Beaux Arts in Grenoble, Mulhouse ... but also in international museums, such as Switzerland, Algeria, Indonesia and Japan.
