Is a French expressionist painter. He was also a gouachist, draftsman, engraver and lithographer. Friend of Louis-Ferdinand Céline, Gen Paul is a self-taught artist, sometimes qualified as a reductive "painter of Montmartre". He was introduced to engraving by Eugène Delâtre. Gen Paul painted his first paintings between 1919 and 1924 under the pseudonym Paul Trelade. His early works seem to reflect many cross-influences, including those of his friends in Montmartre, but he quickly developed a personality tinged with an expressionism that reflected influences as varied as those of Toulouse-Lautrec, van Gogh and Cezanne, and before them Goya , Velasquez, El Greco. Gen Paul's works seem gay and full of optimism, nourished by a passion for life and an interest in the simplicity of everyday life.
