About the Item

Cubist painting by painter Josif Iliu born in 1919 in Romania, Iliu exposes and produces theater sets in Bucharest. He first emigrated to Italy and then to Paris in 1949. He joined the mouvement of geometric abstraction and exhibited at the Salon of New Realities and Paris galleries, notably with Dumitresco and Istrati. But it is in Montreal (Quebec) where he settled in 1953 that Iliu will developed powerful monumental artworks (reliefs, sculptures, mosaics) designed for contemporary architecture. His art combines metallic, monumentality and light sensitivity (the Imperial Bank of Canada, Hall Peel Center, C.I.L. Building in Toronto ...). Works of the 1949s at the gallery.
