Paul Louis Denis Bellot (born, Paris 7 June 1876 - Montreal 5 July 1944) was a French monk and modern architect. ==Biography== He became an architect in 1900 having studied at the École des Beaux-Arts. In 1902 he became a monk of the Benedictines of Solesmes. These monks were in exile in England, and Bellot began building Quarr Abbey on the Isle of Wight. In the Netherlands Bellot designed St. Paul's Abbey, Oosterhout, for the Order. He designed several churches in the Netherlands, France, Belgium, Canada and Portugal. Most of these are built largely of concrete or brick which were his preferred materials. Bellot was a member of L'Arche, an organisation whose goal it was to use modern materials and art for religious purposes. In Canada, where he moved in 1937, he influenced several architects (i.e. Dom Claude-Marie Côté, also a Benedictine monk, and Adrien Dufresne, a layperson)〔http://home.tiscali.nl/~ti125673/Dufresne.htm〕 and his architectural influence became known as "Bellotism". His ideas are expounded in ''Propos d'un bâtisseur du Bon Dieu'' which was published posthumously in 1949; it is based on lectures he gave in Canada in 1934.〔Willis, Peter (1996) ''Dom Paul Bellot, architect and monk, and the publication of "Propos d'un bâtisseur du Bon Dieu" 1949.''
