Jean-Jacques Gailliard was an avant-garde artist born in Belgium. He attended the Academie des Beaux-Arts in Brussels where he lived nearly his entire life. He was able to travel with his father all over Europe early in his career, and in 1920, spent four years in Paris. His earliest works were inspired by theology and mythology, such as one of his best known works “The Child Oedipus” or “Oedipe Enfant.”

Gailliard was a believer in “Swedenborgianism,” a theosophy founded by Emanuel Swedenborg that is contrived of the idea of a universal religion. In turn, Gailliards faith and beliefs are evident in much of his work, and he even decorated a Swedenborg chapel in Brussels.

Gailliard was considered an Abstract artist, and continued to paint religious-themed compositions his entire life. However, Gailliard’s religious or theological paintings are in a more post-Impressionistic style. He was somehow able to successfully work dually in Abstract and Figurative styles, and was even linked to the roots of Belgian Surrealism.

Gailliard is remembered as one of Belgium’s finest Abstract artist, and today his paintings are housed all over Europe, and perhaps even in your own home.
