Georges Noël

Georges Noël was a French artist, a representative of French informel.

In the mid-1950s he moved to the United States and began to create works in impasto, or, as he called them, palimpsests.

Palimpsests are old handwritten pages that have been partially scraped and then reused. Georges Noël uses the concept of palimpsest and creates his canvases with sand, crushed silica and raw pigment, giving each work a three-dimensional and energetic feel.

Georges Noël was a professor at the Minneapolis School of Art before returning to Paris.
