Summary

First lavishly illustrated publication presenting a side-by-side vision of the two painters despite their 25 years spent together and their respective fame.0This important catalogue is intended as a reference work that synthesizes the creative relationship that united Joan Mitchell (1925-1992), an American painter most often associated with the 1950s New York School?s second generation of abstract expressionists and Jean-Paul Riopelle (1923-2002), thereby relating the 25-or-so years of shared life (1955-1979) of this extraordinary couple over 25 years of production. Written by period and Mitchell and Riopelle specialists, the catalogue will be a tool for readers to hone their appreciation of these two major bodies of work from the second half of the 20th century. It will also highlight the formal, aesthetic and biographical ties that fuelled their respective creative practice.00Exhibition: Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec, Canada (12.10.2017-07.01.2018) / Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto, Canada (02.-05.2018) / Fonds Hélène & Édouard Leclerd pour la Culture, Landerneau, France (12.2018-03.2019).
