Review Quotes: "François-Marc Gagnon is the foremost scholar of Borduas and of the Automatiste movement. This first comprehensive treatment of Borduas's life and work is the product of thorough and impeccable scholarship and is unsurpassed in its comprehensiveness and detail. It will be fundamental to ongoing and future work on the artist and his historical context." Roald Nasgaard, professor emeritus, Florida State University and the author of Abstract Painting in Canada, The Automatiste Revolution and The Plasticiens and Beyond
