*Prices in USD
A survey of the wonderfully talented Canadian artist, the late Mathieu Lefevre. Texts contributed by Hugues Charbonneau, Kim Dorland, Nicolas Mavrikakis, Jamie Angell, Fabien Loszach, Marius Tanascescu, Claudine Khelil, Tyler Benedict, Michel Boulanger, Alhena Katsof, Salim Murad and Erika Lefevre.
Lefevre's work could be 'described as satirical, idiotic and/or absurd, his art is often light-hearted and playful yet sometimes with critical undertones. Seemingly simple and straightforward, his works are the result of a purposeful misinterpretation and distortion of objects and ideas surrounding him. Often dealing with the microcosm of the contemporary art world, Lefevre raises questions as to what art can be, what it is worth and what is its role in a cultural, commercial and political setting.'
