Eugène Paul, known as Gen Paul, was born in Paris in 1895, where he died in 1975. Born into a working-class family, he taught himself to paint, bathing his work in scenes from his daily life in Montmartre: balls and views of Paris, which earned him the distinction of being one of the many “Montmartre painters” with whom he rubbed shoulders, like Utrillo.
Gen Paul developed a style with multiple influences, marked by the avant-gardists of the turn of the century - Toulouse-Lautrec and Van Gogh in particular - as well as by his contemporaries - his friend Juan Gris, Picasso's cubism, Vlaminck's color and touch. Skillfully distorting the reality he observes, sometimes to the point of excess, using vivid colors with eloquent symbolic tones, Gen Paul is often considered an expressionist painter, whose impasto painterly style, coupled with a highly expressive gestural intensity, brings him closer to the art of Chaïm Soutine.
