André Joyeux (1871-1929) was a French artist, the first teacher and director of the Gia Định School of Art (Trường Mỹ thuật thực hành Gia Định), founded in 1913 in a suburb of Saigon, 12 years before Victor Tardieu established the national EBAI in Hanoi.

André, Michel Joyeux was born on April 18, 1871, in Corbeil-Essonnes and died on July 10, 1929, in Marseille.

André, Michel Joyeux studied architecture at the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, then, around 1900, went to Saigon, possibly as an architect. In Saigon, he began painting and drawing; his paintings were exhibited at the 1906 Marseille Colonial Exhibition. He later published his first book of satirical caricatures of the colonists (his fellow French colonials), such as Silhouettes Saignonnaises (22 plates, Saigon, 1909), and then in 1912 a larger book of cartoons and texts titled La Vie grande des colonies (Paris: Maurice Bauche, 1912), since translated into English under the title ’The Colonial Good Life’.

He also illustrated several more serious books for other authors. In 1911, Joyeux was appointed chief inspector of the Schools of Decorative Arts of Cochinchina and in 1913 founded the School of Applied Arts of Gia Dinh.

André Joyeux continued until 1926, followed by Jules Besson and Stéphane Brecq. In 1943, 160 students had graduated from the school. The school was merged with the Ho Chi Minh City University of Fine Arts in 1971.

Today, these works are sometimes sold at auction and sometimes achieve a very good price.
