Jean-Michel Coulon (1920-2014) spent his life creating, drawing and painting in a near-absolute secrecy. When he died, his family discovered a full and unpublished work of more than 800 paintings and collages - the collages exclusively realized from the 2000s.
Abstract painter, member of the second School of Paris, Coulon became close to artists as Nicolas de Staël, André Lanskoy, Maria Elena Vieira da Silva and Arpad Szenes. A solo exhibition of his works was organized at the Galerie Jeanne Bucher, then in New York. After that, he declined almost all exhibition offers from the 1950s to the end of his life.
This monograph allows discovering the work of this artist admired by his peers but who seemed to refuse any kind of public acknowledgment during his life.
