ALBERT CHUBAC 1925 2008 Recognised as one of the iconic leaders in the French Modern & Post War Contemporary Art movement; Artist of Geometric Poetry. Similar to his contemporary Joan Miro, Albert Chubac was one of the pioneers to emphasize on the use of primary colours, simple lines and two-dimensional geometric shapes. He became fascinated with optical research and applications and the effect it had on the human physic. His art work gives frank enjoyment of that which is simple and coloured - similar to children s toys of an early age, not sophisticated but with a pleasure of the brightness of pure colours, and to the clear volumes of primary geometry.
