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

His pictorial and spatial language has evolved over time through a multitude of formal and chromatic explorations that, even today, enrich his entire approach. Indeed, in retrospect, one observes the formidable diversity that characterizes his long artistic reflection. A journey that, without abstracting it, largely transcends the sole aesthetic dimension.

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

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