Jacques Germain

Work and color

A keen sense of chromaticism, a taste for vibrant, luminous brushstrokes.

Like Georges Mathieu, Jean Miotte and Gérard Schneider, Jacques Germain is a major player in lyrical abstract art in the post-war period. Major and singular. His strongly structured compositions bear witness to a "Bahaussian" heritage. He was a pupil of Josef Albers and Vassily Kandinsky.

Jacques Germain's research into color is also specific to his work. From 1947 onwards, Jacques Germain produced a body of work spanning almost fifty years, manifesting a sensitivity to color and movement.

From his 1955 paintings, a series of colored surfaces, to the small areas of pure impressionist color, to the explosion of tones and feasts of color of the late 70s and early 80s, Jacques Germain liberates color and makes it the structuring element of the painting.
In contrast to pictorial movements such as constructivism or geometric abstraction, in which color is circumscribed within geometric figures.
