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.
