Based in New York and Montreal, Yves Tessier is an artist known for lyrical, humorous and vivid contemporary scenes.
Tessier is one of nine artists represented by McBride Contemporain scheduled to show at the upcoming Plural Art Fair in Montreal (April 12 to 14). His latest solo exhibition, at Shrine, NY just ended (here)
A natural born storyteller, Tessier uses casein paint on aluminum and wood to create flattened narrative scenes of situations and characters that have been sourced from real-world observation, television and the internet, and his imagination.
