Jean Paul Riopelle (1923-2002) is one of the most important Canadian artists of the twentieth century. Attracted to painting from a young age, he enrolled in the art program at the École du meuble de Montréal in 1943, where he met the painter Paul-Émile Borduas (1905-1960). This was a decisive step in Riopelle’s life, as he would join the important group of Quebec artists, the Automatistes, and be one of the signatories of the famous 1948 manifesto: Refus global. Riopelle later settled in Paris, where he became the only Canadian painter recognized in Europe and the rest of the world. Stylistically linked to some of the most important movements of his time, Riopelle developed a rich and varied body of work that constitutes his main legacy, oscillating in a completely new way between abstraction and figuration.
