Painter
Lise Boisseau and friends take over the MAC
by CHRISTINE

Lise
Boisseau describes her paintings as “questioning the traditional
structure of pictorial space.” And how does she go about this inquiry?
“I work blind,” is her answer. “I begin something then
I mask off an area. I paint some more then I mask again. In the end
I discover what happened and I either accept it or refuse it.”
Boisseau has teamed up with Michel Daigneault and David Urban for Dialogues,
an upcoming exhibit at the Musée d’art contemporain (Feb.
27–April 21). “We are three abstract painters who approach
painting in a completely different manner,” she says of the show.
“David references pre-modern painting, I respond to modern American
painting, while Michel’s work feeds off the post-modern. When you
see the three styles together it’s a real shock to the eyes.”
