Join Fine Arts students and alumni online to hear acclaimed Canadian artist and proud Concordian Marc Séguin, BFA 95, share his experience on the international cultural scene and discuss the life of an artist during these unprecedented times.
Ottawa-born Marc Séguin splits his time between his home in Montreal and his Brooklyn, New York studio.
Touching on themes of the politically backwards, the environmentally compromised and the socially divided, his work reveals deeper truths about the nature of humanity through images that are not only thought provoking, but beautifully elegiac.
Since 2000, the Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal, the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec have all acquired major works by Marc Séguin. His prints and paintings are found in numerous Canadian corporate collections and those of major private Canadian and American collectors.
To date, Marc Séguin has held more than 20 solo shows and participated in many more group exhibitions and art fairs around the world, including Madrid, Barcelona, Venice, Berlin, Cologne, New York, Miami, Chicago, Brussels and Namur.
Marc Séguin has also published 3 critically acclaimed fiction novels – La foi du braconnier, Hollywood and Nord Alice – translated in English and German. Stealing Alice is his first feature film. His documentary The State of the Farm was released in September 2017.
