Riopelle : à la rencontre des territoires nordiques et des cultures autochtones

By : Musée des beaux-arts de Montréal et T B A

GRANDS PRIX DU DESIGN – 14th edition

Discipline : Interior Design

Categories : Culture, Sport & Leisure / Museum & Gallery : Bronze Certification

The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts (MMFA) presents a major exhibition dedicated to Jean Paul Riopelle (1923-2002), a towering figure in Canadian, Quebec and international modern art. Based on original research, the exhibition explores the artist’s interest in the North and Indigenous cultures, with nearly 160 works and more than 150 artefacts and archival documents. It sheds new light on the artist’s work during the 1950s and 1970s by retracing the travels and influences that fed his fascination with northern regions and North American Indigenous communities.The exhibition Riopelle: The Call of Northern Landscapes and Indigenous Cultures reveals an artist imbued with the surrealists’ interest in non-Western arts, as inspired by his friend and collector Georges Duthuit and the writings of anthropologists and ethnologists such as Marius Barbeau, Jean Malaurie and Claude Lévi-Strauss.
