Gromaire Marcel (gromér), *1892, fr. malíř.

" A la déformation, dit-il, j'oppose l'affirmation de l'objet ". Son originalité, dans ses premičres oeuvres, se définit par la puissance monumentale des formes, ŕ travers ses différents thčmes : la vie des ports, les travaux rustiques, les filles nues, qu'il a traités avec un accent d'humanité direct et passionné. Par la suite, aprčs un voyage en Amérique, il s'est intéressé au paysage urbain, qu'il a traduit par des couleurs pus vibrantes et un dessin plus schématisé, qui donnent ŕ ses visions de New-York et de Paris un accent lyrique et un aspect qui se rapproche de l'art du vitrail. Le Musée National d'Art Moderne conserve de lui les Lignes de la main (1935), La Foręt (1937), le Vagabond (1939). Parmi les peintres français de la seconde génération du sičcle, Gromaire apparaît comme le plus original et le plus puissant par l'accent profondément humain qu'il a su exprimer en un style franchement moderne.
