About the Item

Lithograph on vélin de Lana paper. Inscription: Unsigned and unnumbered, as issued. Good condition. Notes: From the folio, tête edition, Consacré à Jean-Paul Riopelle, Derrière le miroir, N° 171, 1968. Published by Maeght Éditeur, Paris; printed by Maeght Imprimeur, Paris, April 5, 1968, in an edition of 150. Excerpted from the folio (translated from French), The tête edition of this issue of "Behind the Mirror", dedicated to Jean-Paul Riopelle and including 10 original lithographs is limited to 150 examples on vélin de Lana, numbered and signed by the artist. Printing was finished on April 5, 1968 on presses d'Arte à Paris. JEAN-PAUL RIOPELLE (1923-2002) was a Canadian painter and sculptor from Quebec. He had one of the longest and most important international careers of the sixteen signatories of the Refus Global, the 1948 manifesto that announced the Quebecois artistic community's refusal of clericalism and provincialism. He is best known for his abstract painting style, in particular his "mosaic" works of the 1950s when he famously abandoned the paintbrush, using only a palette knife to apply paint to canvas, giving his works a distinctive sculptural quality. He became the first Canadian painter since James Wilson Morrice to attain widespread international recognition and high praise, both during his career and after his death. He was a leading artist of French Lyrical Abstraction.
