Pierre Larivière

Pierre Larivière (1884? -1932) was a French anarchist writer, illustrator and painter.[1]

Prior to the First World War Larivière contributed to several anarchist publications, such as Jean Grave's Les Temps Nouveaux.[2] He was drafted during the war and served in the 27th company of the 369th line regiment. He corresponded with Grave during 914-15, but this stopped in January 1915 when he disagreed with Grave's support for Kropotkin's view that the war was a war of liberation. Rather, he supported the pacifist views of Romain Rolland.[2]

In May 1922 he attended the International Congress of Progressive Artists and signed the "Founding Proclamation of the Union of Progressive International Artists".[3]
