Excellent- More about Manuel Mathieu (Bilingual edition): World Discovered Under Other Skies
The first comprehensive publication on Haitian Canadian artist Manuel Mathieu explores how Haiti has informed his work, reflecting on the complex revolutionary history and the erasure of memories of the Duvalier dictatorships. Mathieu's vibrant paintings blur the boundaries between the personal and the political, merging abstraction with figuration and abrading his work with found photographs. He considers Haitis quest for self-determination as a prism reflecting a global longing for freedom and grassroots resistance to imperialist and capitalist exploits.

Publisher: Hatje Cantz
Elucidating the multi-layered explorations of Haitian Canadian artist Manuel Mathieu, this first comprehensive publication delves into the profound influence of Haiti on Mathieu's artistic journey over the past few years. Reflecting on the complex revolutionary history of his family homeland, by unearthing its traumatized subconscious and the erasure of memories of the oppressive and violent Duvalier dictatorships, Mathieu's vibrant paintings blur the boundaries between the personal and the political. Through the fusion of abstraction and figuration, Mathieu abrades his work, derived from found photographs, by rubbing and scraping off layers of paint, before reintroducing impastoed snarls of color. Positioned at the fault lines of political and environmental crises, Mathieu considers Haiti's quest for self-determination as a prism reflecting a global longing for freedom and grassroots resistance to imperialist and capitalist exploits.
