One of Canada's most famous painters, Riopelle first came to prominence as a member of the Automatistes, a group of progressive writers and artists in Quebec. Led by Paul-Émile Borduas, other painters associated with the movement included Marcel Barbeau, Marcelle Ferron, Pierre Gauvreau, Fernand Leduc and Jean-Paul Mousseau.
In 1947 he moved to Paris and went on to became an important member of the informal group of expatriate artists known as the Ecole de Paris, which also included Marc Chagall and Natalia Goncharova.
He remained a Canadian art world icon, and received the Order of Canada in 1969. He eventually returned to Canada in the 1990's.
