Artist: Jean-Paul Riopelle
This vintage exhibition poster features the art of Jean-Paul Riopelle, a Montreal-born artist who became the first Canadian painter (since James Wilson Morrice) to attain widespread international recognition. In the 1940s, his style evolved from Surrealism to Lyrical Abstraction (related to abstract expressionism), in which he used a myriad of intricate cubes and triangles of multicolored elements, faceted with a palette knife, spatula, or trowel, on often large canvases to create powerful atmospheres. His work is now largely characterized as being in the Abstract Expressionist style, and his paintings were sometimes even compared to Jackson Pollock's!
The Galerie Maeght is a French art gallery focused on modern art, founded in 1936. They were also one of the foremost Parisian printers of the time, regularly producing the lithographs for their exhibitions.
Poster is in very good condition, from a private collection and ready to frame.
