Kittie Bruneau, RCA〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.rca-arc.ca/en/about_members/since1880.asp )〕 is a Canadian painter and printmaker living in Quebec. ==Life and Work== Bruneau was born in Montreal in 1929.〔〔 〕 She studied at École des beaux-arts de Montréal from 1946 to 1949.〔 She studied for a year at the Montreal School of Arts under the supervision of Ghitta Caiserman-Roth.〔 As a young woman, Bruneau was torn between the visual arts and dance. Following her studies, she travelled to Paris where she spent the next ten years.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.museevirtuel-virtualmuseum.ca/edu/ViewLoitLo.do?method=preview&lang=EN&id=5149 )〕 While in Europe, she danced in the corps de ballet for the Ballets de Rouen, and the Ballets de l’étoile of Maurice Béjart.〔 In 1961, Bruneau moved to Bonaventure Island near Percé, Quebec where she lived and worked until 1972.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://web.archive.org/web/20120304234447/http://www.musee-chafaud.com/annee_en.php?nom=5 )〕 At that time, the Province of Quebec evicted all residents in order to depopulate the island. Her island studio is preserved as part of the Île-Bonaventure-et-du-Rocher-Percé National Park.〔 Since then she has worked each summer in a studio on Pointe-Saint-Pierre, a few kilometers from Bonaventure.〔 Bruneau has a direct approach, using bright colours and a free gestural manner to portray figures and objects combined in compositions that have their roots in the world of poetry and dream.〔 She paints with the canvases on the floor, walking over them as she works.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oigZyPpTT2k )〕 Her work aligns with surrealism, with some aspects of automatism. Other artists who explore this territory include in Quebec, Alfred Pellan and Jean Dallaire; and internationally, Joan Miró, Paul Klee, and Wassily Kandinsky.〔 Through her career, Bruneau has been awarded support for her work, including: *ten large paintings of the Gaspé, Canada Council, 1964.〔 *studies in printmaking at Centre de recherches graphiques de Montréal, Ministère des Affaires culturelles du Québec, 1965.〔 *six weeks at Arcosanti in Arizona under the direction of Paolo Soleri (1972)〔 *studies in woodcut with Tōshi Yoshida in Tokyo (1985)〔 *production of prints at l'Atelier du Scarabée, with Bonnie Baxter, in Val-David, Quebec.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bonniebaxter.com/INFO/InfoPage.html )〕 She has collaborated with Leonard Cohen, Claude Haeffely, Françoise Bujold and other poets to produce work that combines literature and the visual arts.〔 Between 1982 and 1992, she painted seven murals in various places in Quebec.〔 Bruneau's work is represented in the collections of the National Gallery of Canada,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.gallery.ca/en/see/collections/artist.php?iartistid=768 )〕 Canada Council Art Bank,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.artbank.ca/en/Loans/Searchable%20List%20of%20Works.aspx )〕 Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec, and the Montreal Museum of Contemporary Art.
