MELANIE AUTHIER
Note:
Montreal born Melanie Authier’s landscapes present us with complex and contradictory projections on how we view the world around us. Lushly presented and teeming with energy, her work is at once reassuring, picturesque and subtly confrontational. Widely exhibited throughout Canada, Authier’s work is in numerous public and corporate collections. In addition, she has been the recipient of many awards including the Premier’s Award for Excellence in Ontario 2010, an Honourable Mention Award in the RBC Painting Competition in 2007 and the Guido Molinari Studio Arts Award. Most recently, the National Gallery of Canada has purchased Authier’s work.
