Marcel Barbeau pushes color to new harmonies. The painter will say: “I did a lot of research, I mix all the colors myself. Even if I dare a lot, I am sure that it holds. » Some will examine the works of Barbeau as and find them dissonant and atonal. To this, the painter will respond in the affirmative and add: “For me, it is harmonious when I do it: it is another form of harmony, one of contrast and not a harmony of nuances. ".
