Louis van Lint was born 1909 in Brussels. From 1934 until 1938 he studied
at the Academy of Art at St. Joostten-Noode and in 1939 he was one of
the founders of the art group La Route Libre. In 1945 he viewed an exhibition
in Brussels held by the french group Jeune Peinture, and mainly Bazaine
from this group inspired him to start painting abstract.
Together with other Belgian artists he founded the group Jeune Peinture
Belge. In 1949 this group got in contact with Cobra, and many painters
including Louis van Lint joined the spontanious art movement. Louis van
Lint lived and worked during Cobra time in the Cobra house in Rue du Marais,
and he exhibited at many Cobra exhibitions, one of these being the last
in Liegé in 1951.
