Marcel Lempereur-Haut (1898, Liège – 1986, Lille) was a Belgian painter. He took drawing lessons at the Liège Academy of Fine Arts where he obtained a diploma in surveying and, after World War I he worked as a technical draughtsman.
In 1920, he joined the group publishing the Anthologie art magazine.[1] He started his artistic career by producing book illustrations and prints, mostly inspired by cubism. He produced his first abstract art in 1921, and in 1922 befriended František Kupka.[2] From 1932, he participated in the exhibitions of the musicalist artists.
He lived in Paris from 1945 to 1958, and participated in the exhibitions of the Salon des Réalités Nouvelles.[3] At this stage, his work mainly comprised combinations of circles, spirals and stars. His later works were mostly decorative.
Lempereur-Haut continued to paint into at least his late seventies, limiting himself to crayons on cardboard after a cataract operation in 1976 restricted his vision.[4] A retrospective exhibition of his work was held in Lille in 1985.[5]
