Martin Barré, abstract painter, 1924 - 1993.

His paintings are mostly white, off-white or clear, with only a few lines or arrows. He painted with tubes, wooden sticks or aerosol paints, all in search of reduction and concentration. The artist created entire series of works and geometric assemblies. Barré brought together triangles, squares and rectangles, sometimes truncated or tinted, and hung then according to their geometric shape. He also produced photographic installations.
