MARCEL BARBEAU
AANFM, CAS, QMG, RCA, SAAVQ, SAPQ
(1925-2016)

​Marcel Barbeau was born in Montreal and studied under Paul-Emile Borduas along with
Jean-Paul Riopelle at Ecole du Meuble. 
He was an original member of Les Automatistes in 1946.  This was a movement
where members were less concerned with planning out their compositions but paint automatically
without preconceived direction for the piece.  
​He later branched out into sculpture, performance art and film.
In 1964 he received the Zack Award, Canadian Painting Biennial, Canadian Royal Academy; Governor General's Award; Louis-Philippe-Herbert Award and many other awards as well as many Canada Council grants.
