Haas works with paper not as a support, but as the material for his work. An original silhouette emerges from a painted, folded, crumpled, stretched and scratched material. Its anonymity makes it a universal representation of humanity in action, arm raised in the air.

Michel Haas (1934-2019)
Michel Haas was born in Paris in 1934. He studied philosophy before turning to the visual arts […] Michel Haas draws his inspiration from the world around him. Living in Paris, he paints life in the city: people captured in moments of life in scenes from everyday life, men, couples, cyclists, animals, men drinking, musicians, dancers, trees, flowers, everything that makes up life.
