Guillaume Jean-Lefebvre’s Inspiring Story Of Resilience And Philanthropy

By: Get News

Guillaume Jean-Lefebvre is an ambitious French artist and entrepreneur who has faced immense challenges, but has found a way to overcome them and reach success. After moving to Paris at the age of 17, far from his family, a major depression led him to attempt suicide at 18 years old. The attempt resulted in a coma and various sequelae, requiring him to relearn how to walk again. Despite this, Guillaume was determined not to let his struggles define him, and has instead used them as motivation for his philanthropic efforts.

His story remained hidden for many years before he began using it as inspiration for his work, aiming to help those struggling with depression feel less alone and unashamed of their feelings. Guillaume's personal photography website allows visitors a glimpse into his past and current works. 

In 2018, Guillaume moved from Paris to New York City in pursuit of an artistic career. This ambition paid off when one of his paintings was autographed by the famous American actor Billy Porter during the "Ali Forney Center" gala at Cipriani's Wall Street auction. The painting sold for eight thousand dollars towards the one million dollar goal that was raised that year—a range of stars such as Lindsay Lohan, Jussie Smollet, and Lady Gaga attended and supported the event. Grateful, Guillaume does not forget to thank Darian James, who allowed him to have access to this event upon his arrival in New York.

Aside from painting, Guillaume owns Eclair Magazine—a luxury art, fashion, beauty, and editorial magazine that seeks out both established celebrities and emerging artists alike.

Every month Eclair Magazine features an exclusive interview with either a French or American celebrity in their “Portrait Of The Month” section; notable personalities include Jason Bell (renowned photographer who has worked with Angelina Jolie, Kate Winslet, Natalie Portman, Nicole Kidman and many more), Helene Segara, Camille Lellouche, Joyce Jonathan, Lorie Pester (beloved French singers), Dan Payne (actor in Correctives Measure alongside Bruce Willis), Wendy Starland (who discovered Lady Gaga), Justin Hires (best known for starring on MacGyver), Zibby Allen (best known for her role in Virgin River), Braeden De La Garza (Demi Lovato’s cousin).
