From Askart.com:
Recognized as one of the major non-figurative painters of Algerian art in the second half of the 20th century, Guermaz belongs to the generation of founders of modern Algerian painting, along with Khadda (1930-1991), Benanteur (1931) and Aksouh (1934). His abstract paintings express the artist's sensations and emotions, using tangled lines and colored patches. Abdelkader Guermaz was a student at the Oran School of Fine Arts. Between 1940 and 1955, he became interested in the figurative concept of the Peintres de la Réalité poétique. Noticed for his precocious talent by Robert Martin, his paintings rubbed shoulders at the Colline gallery in Oran with those of Algerian and European artists from Algeria, as well as those of Picasso and Bernard.
