Marcel Barbeau, Les Chagrins de l’Azur 14 x 18 in / 35.56 x 45.72 cm

Marcel Barbeau, Les Chagrins de l’Azur 14x18 in / 35.56x45.72 cm expresses a subtle melancholy through shades of blue and delicate acrylic touches. The work reflects on emotions and tranquility.

"Marcel Barbeau's artistic career now spans over 70 years of creation. Painter, sculptor, dancer, performer, his contribution to our recent art history and our modernity is undeniable. And this extends far beyond his automatist period.

His pictorial and spatial language has evolved over time into a multitude of formal and chromatic explorations that, even today, enrich his entire approach. Indeed. In retrospect, we observe the tremendous diversity that characterizes his long artistic reflection. A journey that, without abstracting it, largely transcends the purely aesthetic dimension.

Original, audacious, a great admirer of contemporary dance and music, Marcel Barbeau never stayed in his comfort zone. Over the years and periods, he constantly sought out new creative territories.

Recipient in 2013 of the Paul-Émile-Borduas prize, the most important distinction for a visual artist in Quebec, Marcel Barbeau is undoubtedly one of the great artists of our modernity still living. Moreover, recent years have been particularly fruitful in awards of all kinds, throughout the country." Robert Bernier
