Career

Hurtubise was born on February 28, 1939, in Montreal, and studied painting at the École des beaux-arts de Montréal. Already by 1960, at age 21, he had his first major show at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts.[2][3] He spent much of the 1960s living in New York City and becoming part of the abstract expressionist scene there.[1] His art at that time combined geometric forms with splashed paint, and he experimented with fluorescent colors and neon light art.[1][2] In the early 1970s his compositions were based on square forms, but by the late 1970s they shifted to linear patterns that resembled abstract landscapes.[1] His later work featured "deep-black pools, rivers and geometric forms that often mask upside-down maps and text."[2]

His many awards included the grand prize for painting at the 1965 Concours Artistique du Québec, the Victor Martyn Lynch-Staunton Award of the Canada Council for the Arts in 1992,[4] and the Prix Paul-Émile-Borduas from the Québec government in 2000.[2]

Following his daughter`s death in 1980, he sold his Montreal home and travelled. He moved to Nova Scotia in 1983,[2] and died on December 27, 2014, near Inverness, Nova Scotia, on Cape Breton Island.[1]
