Michel DelacroixMichel Delacroix is an acclaimed master of the naïf tradition and one of the most popular artists in the world today. Delacroix has devoted five decades to painting what he calls "the Paris of then," the magical place where he was born, spent his boyhood, and where he continues to live. Delacroix’s Paris is the dream-like place the city became in the 1940's, during the Occupation, when "we suddenly jumped fifty years into the past. No more cars in the streets, very few lights. Paris suddenly became quiet and dark, and though people were afraid, there was a brotherhood and spirit that was delightful." For Delacroix, then a child of seven and spared by his age from understanding "the cruelties and absurdities" of war, it was "the one great adventure of my life." It is to this special Paris that Delacroix has returned over and over again. These works, renowned for their graceful balance of "the earthy and the urban, the cosmic and the ordinary," have captivated private collectors, museums and ordinary people alike throughout the world, earning the artist both universal acclaim and numerous awards.
