Manuel Mathieu’s Autoportrait, 2017. PHOTO: COURTESY OF THE ARTIS
Born in Haiti and now based in Montréal, Mathieu completed his MFA from Goldsmith’s just last year and currently has a solo exhibition at London’s Tiwani Contemporary, on view through December 22. At this year’s ABMB, Kavi Gupta is including two of the artist’s recent paintings in their booth and will present the artist’s first North American solo show in February. Moving fluidly between figurative and abstract gestures, Mathieu’s paintings—which are priced between $15,000 and $20,000—are at once personal and political.
