Item Overview

Description

Acrylique sur toile, étiquette de la Galerie du Siècle au dos anciennement Galerie des Plasticiens. Acrylic on canvas, Label of La Galerie du Siècle on the back previously Galerie des Plasticiens. 39 3 / 4” x 32” • 100.96 x 81.28 cm Initié à l’art moderne par Paul-Emile Borduas, et membre fondateur des Automatistes, Marcel Barbeau fût le premier à expérimenter l’expressionnisme au Canada avec Jean-Paul Riopelle. Après l’échec de son marriage avec Suzanne Meloche, il mêne un mode de vie nomade au travers du Québec, du Canada, de la France et des Etats-Unis. Cette pièce, intitulée à raison “lumière noire” et probablement réalisée quand il était à Paris, captive par sa simplicité et la force de ses lignes et de ses couleurs sombres mais ouvertes. Introduced to Modern Art by Paul-Emile Borduas and founding member of the Automatists, Marcel Barbeau was the first to experiment with expressionism in Canada with Jean-Paul Riopelle. After the failure of his union with Suzanne Meloche, he has lived a nomad life through Quebec, Canada, France and the United-States. This piece, cleverly titled “Lumière Noire” (Black Light), probably created while he was in Paris, hypnotises through its simplicity, the strength of its lines and the use of a dark but open palette.
