Jean-Paul Riopelle: Works from Private Collections: Exhibition
Forthcoming exhibition
-
Overview
Jean Paul Riopelle (1923–2002) stands among Canada’s most celebrated artists. His bold, gestural “mosaic” compositions of the 1950s, created with pure colour and palette knife application, placed him at the forefront of the postwar abstract movements of the mid-20th century.
The works comprising ‘Riopelle: Works From Private Collections’ have been previously sold through Masters Gallery and generously loaned by private collectors. Together they span three vital decades of the artist’s career, celebrating Riopelle’s enduring achievement as a major figure of international art while marking the upcoming 50th anniversary of Masters Gallery, founded in 1976.
