Jean Philippe Dallaire, painter, illustrator, professor (b at Hull, Quebec 9 June 1916, died at Vence, France 27 Nov 1965). Raised in a working-class family of 15, he started drawing at age 11. Though he registered in various art classes, he was mostly self-taught. In October 1938, with the support of a Quebec government grant, Dallaire went to Paris, where he attended the Atelier d'art sacre, the Lhote studio and worked in his Montmartre studio. He became familiar with the work of Picasso and the surrealists and met Alfred Pellan. Under the German Occupation (1940-44) he was prisoner at St-Denis. He taught painting at the Ecole des beaux-arts in Quebec City 1946-52, worked for the NATIONAL FILM BOARD in Ottawa 1952-57, mostly illustrating animated films, then lived and painted in Montreal from 1957-59. In 1959 he went to Europe to stay. He died of heart failure, thus ending prematurely a brilliant career. Dallaire's works show varied stylistic influences and are always recognized by their draftmanship and spontaneity in subject and use of colour.
