Visual Art Forum: Manuel Mathieu

Please join us online for our final Visual Art Forum lecture of the fall 2021 series with Montréal artist Manuel Mathieu on Wednesday, November 10th at 4:00 pm PST. All talks are open to the public and all are welcome to attend. Closed captioning is available.

Haiti-born, Montreal-based multidisciplinary artist, Manuel Mathieu is known for his paintings, which investigate themes of historical violence, erasure, as well as Haitian visual cultures of physicality, nature, and religious symbolism.

Marrying abstract and figurative techniques, his compositions carve out space for us to reflect on Haiti’s transformative history while inviting us to consider the different futures the act of remembering creates.

Drawing from a wide-range of subjects, Manuel’s practice combines his Haitian heritage and his formal arts education, which culminated in an MFA Degree from Goldsmiths, University of London.

Presented by the Audain Faculty of Art at Emily Carr University of Art + Design and the FRMS 300: Art Forums course.
