Still lifes by Pierre Lefebvre

Pierre Lefebvre is a Canadian artist born in 1954 in Quebec. A master of portraits and landscapes, Lefebvre also turns to the genre of still life. Apples, lemons, strawberries, pears – these are the simple and delicious heroes of Lefebvre’s still life paintings. They are placed in the space of the tabletop, grouped confidently and amicably, expressing calm stability and harmony. The combination of different angles and points of perception in one composition leads to an interesting generalization, a departure from the everyday and bustle of everyday life. Lefebvre shows himself to be an exquisite colorist: perfectly selected coloristic solutions balance rational geometry and flatness in the interpretation of the shape of the object.
