Genevieve L'Heureux
"Adrift IV #3 of 10" -- Architectural black and white etching

2017

About the Item

Aquatint etching printed on Somerset satin white 300g Geneviève L'Heureux was born in Montréal, Canada and now lives in San Francisco, CA. She practiced, then taught architecture for several years before developing a passion for printmaking in Rome, as a 2001 recipient of the Canadian Rome Prize. Printmaking has been her main occupation since 2012. Her preferred techniques include etching, aquatint, mezzotint, and chine collé. Geneviève’s work has been selected for several national and international juried exhibitions in the US and abroad. Among others, she has exhibited at the De Young Museum, San Francisco, the Royal Arsenal, London, the Katonah Museum of Art, NY, the Marin Museum of Contemporary Art, CA, and the International Print Center New York. She was part of print Biennials in Douro, Portugal, and Atlanta, GA. Her work has also been shown at PrintAustin, the Print Club of Rochester, and at many other galleries. Her artistic work, whether drawing or print, geometrical or figurative, attempts to express what belongs to the senses, to touch our humanity with evocative and emotional work. She challenges the well accepted theory that contrasting concepts (dark/light, mass/lightness, line/surface), stand as polar opposites and, consequently, that we live in a world of extremes and exclusion. The intentional oscillation between opposing concepts mirrors our human condition. The work is destabilizing in that it brings us away from the comfort of established norms and strict definitions and closer to our fundamental nature: one of ambivalence and continuous transformation. Geneviève is a member of the California Society of Printmakers and Boston Printmakers and has her studio in the Mission in San Francisco.
