Biography

He was born in Paris and studied at the Académie Julian with Pierre Bonnard and Édouard Vuillard. He was a member of Les Nabis from its 1889 founding. Other members included Bonnard, Vuillard, Félix Vallotton, Maurice Denis, Paul Sérusier, and Émile Bernard. Ibels took part in Les Nabis’ exhibitions at Le Barc de Boutteville gallery. With Vuillard and Denis he soon caught the public eye and earned the nickname ‘le Nabis journaliste’.[1]

He contributed to several publications on anarchism.[2]

Ibels collaborated with Toulouse-Lautrec and became involved in avant-garde theater.[3]
