Jean-Philippe Dallaire, born in Hull in 1916, died in 1965 at the age of 49. Jean-Philippe Dallaire studied art at the \u00c9cole technique de Hull and at Toronto\u2019s Central Technical School from 1932 to 1935. In 1938\u20131939, he continued his studies, first at the \u00c9cole des Beaux-Arts de Montr\u00e9al, then at the Ateliers d\u2019Art Sacr\u00e9 and the Acad\u00e9mie Andr\u00e9 Lhote in Paris. After the German occupation of Paris, Jean Dallaire and his wife were sent to an internment camp. His wife was released six months later, but his own internment lasted longer, and this experience is said to have had a profound influence on his work. After the war, he returned to Canada and taught at the \u00c9cole des Beaux-Arts in Quebec City from 1945 to 1952. He was hired by the National Film Board as an illustrator for still films, first in Ottawa (from 1952 to 1956), then in Montreal (from 1956 to 1958). He also maintained his artist\u2019s studio, created large canvases reflecting echoes of analytical cubism, and received commissions for tapestry designs. Jean Dallaire held several solo exhibitions in France and Canada and was awarded a painting prize from the province of Quebec in 1938. He lived in Vence, in the south of France, until his death.<\/p>\n","demarche_artistique":"","grille":false},"yoast_head":"\n
