Summary:

Pierre Soulages, born December 24, 1919 in Rodez (Aveyron), lives and works between Paris and Sète (Hérault). A major figure in the abstract, it is recognized as one of the greatest painters of the current French scene for his work running through the second half of the XX th and beginning of the XXI thcentury. "Soulages chooses very young color that carries all the others: black. He remains very attached to it, so that it participates in his artistic identity. Major in its art, it declines, according to the tools with which it is applied, on smooth or rough surfaces, which reveal a multiple and unsuspected light. "Interested in Prehistory and Romanesque art," Soulages develops its creation outside of any stylistic group, according to a solitary and free approach ".
