Les Automatistes: A Canadian group of painters active between 1946 and 1951, whose work has been variously described as Surrealist, Action Painting, or Lyrical Abstraction.

OBS

Les Automatistes were a group of Québécois artistic dissidents from Montreal, Quebec. The movement was founded in the early 1940s by painter Paul-Émile Borduas. "Les Automatistes" were so called because they were influenced by Surrealism and its theory of automatism.
