Considered to be one of the most important abstract painters of the second half of the 20th century, Martin Barré is the subject of a major retrospective in the Centre Pompidou. This exhibition follows on from those devoted to the abstract artists Pierre Soulages, Simon Hantaï, Jesus Rafaël Soto, François Morellet and, recently, Ellsworth Kelly.
The radical work of Martin Barré is one of the most ambitious of his time. Bringing together 66 paintings from 1955 to 1992, this exhibition includes twelve of the twenty or so canvases featured in the Centre Pompidou’s collection.
