Jean Dewasne was born in 1921 in Helemmes-Lille, the son of an engineer.

After extensive classical and musical studies, Jean Dewasne had an epiphany during a visit to the 1937 international exhibition 'Arts and Techniques Applied to Living Modern Life'. He enrolled at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where he spent two years visiting architectural studios before devoting himself to painting.

His first exhibition took place in 1941 at the Esquisse Gallery.

He made his first abstract work in 1943 and advocated abstraction with Hartung, de Staël, Poliakoff, Arp, etc.

In 1946, together with Auguste Herbin, he took part in the emergence of the Salon des Réalités Nouvelles, where he won the Kandinsky Prize.

Jean Dewasne resigned from the Salon des Réalités Nouvelles in 1949.

In 1950 he published the 'Treatise on Flat Painting'. In the same year he founded the Atelier d'Art Abstrait in Paris together with Edgard Pillet and thus contributed to the development of this art.

His first anti-sculptures appeared in 1953.

In 1962 and 1968 he took part in the French Pavilion of the Venice Biennale together with Arman, Piotr Kowalski and Nicolas Schoffer.

In 1966 the first retrospective took place in the Kunsthalle in Bern.

In 1970, Jean Dewasne advised the architects to use the colours of the facade of the Centre Pompidou to create a huge anti-sculpture.

In 1981 he was involved in the foundation of the Oupeinpo (L'Ouvroir de peinturepositielle, founded in 1980)

In 1991 he was elected a member of the Academy of Fine Arts in the chair of Hans Hartung.

He died in Paris in 1999.
