"Marcel Barbeau's artistic career now spans over 70 years of creation. Painter, sculptor, dancer, 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 evolves over time into a multitude of formal and chromatic explorations which, even today, enrich his entire approach. Indeed. With hindsight, we observe the tremendous diversity that characterizes his long artistic reflection. A journey that, without abstracting it, largely transcends the purely aesthetic dimension.

Original, daring, a great lover of contemporary dance and music, Marcel Barbeau never remained in his comfort zone. Over the years and periods, he constantly sought out new creative territories. In 2013, he was awarded the Paul-Émile-Borduas prize, the highest distinction for a visual artist in Quebec.

Marcel Barbeau is undeniably one of the great living artists of our modernity. Moreover, recent years have been particularly fertile in awards of all kinds, throughout the country." Robert Bernier
