Vanitas III - Limited Edition 1 of 75 Print

Born in 1954 in Quebec, Canada, Paul Bliveau attained his Bachelor's degree in Visual Arts from Laval University in 1977. Recognized for his expertise in drawing, engraving and painting he has since then had more than sixty solo exhibitions across Canada and the United States. The recipient of numerous prizes in visual arts and of multiple grants from the Canada Council as well as the Ministre des Affaires Culturelles du Qubec has taken part in several commitees and juries as specialist in the visual arts.

"By openly integrating into the compositions an iconography from the past and proceeding through citation and retrospection, he reveals the phenomenon of metamorphosis upon which imagination itself is based. In this way he brings to light the very principles of the mechanics of creation. Imagination, which consists as it were in the transfer of a perceptible representation onto an image belonging to another reality, thus sees itself in the presented. Consequently it is not the images themselves but the unique process of creative development which accords Paul Bliveau's works their originality." (Dany Quine, L'oeuvre du temps)
