“Painting by nature is a luminous language.”<\/span><\/h4>\n

This quote by Robert Deluanay serves as an excellent precursor to his relationship to his art form. Hearing this way in which he speaks about his art–the mere idea of a “luminous language”–can thrill a viewer without having had a look at his creations. Even further, Deluanay does not dissapoint any expectations upon first viewings.<\/p>\n

Self Portrait, Oil on Canvas. This painting is an excellent example of his cube-like strokes and use of blank canvas space.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Deluanay started out his career influenced by “Neo-Impressionism,” a subsection of art that includes pointillism and division-ism.\u00a0 His defining characteristics of his style is his unique “mosaic” type interpretations, often leaving areas of canvas blank while using squares to depict his subjects. Later in his career the mosaic style grew into a complex relationship between abstract ideas and geometric interpretations.\u00a0Later in his career, Deluanay was accredited with pioneering his own versions of color theory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He was born in 1885 in a well off family but ended up being turned over to his aunt and uncle. He was raised near Bourges for the rest of his life. As many modern artists were, he was heavily inspired by Cezanne and Vasily Kandinsky.<\/p>\n

His works that were the most recognized were his series that were commonly displayed in galleries and salons across France. He was familiar with\u00a0Galerie Barbazanges, of Paris, and the\u00a0Salon d\u2019Automne. One can infer from his prolific showings that he was well recieved within the art world, regardless if the public was able to fully appreciate the intensity behind his work. He was supported by many important figures in the art community, those who built him up through personal relationships and through business opportunities.\u00a0 Without a doubt he was supported and respected by his contemporaries, and with good reason.<\/p>\n
