MEG, a 15-year-old painter from Quebec, realizes a dream by exhibiting eleven of her creations at the Artexpo fair in New York.
The young woman from Stoneham-et-Tewkesbury will be the youngest artist selected for the event, which will take place at Pier 36 from March 30th to April 2nd. She will be part of a contingent of 200 exhibitors from 27 countries.
This is also the first time MEG has taken its facilities outside of Canada.
MEG will unveil 11 creations that have emerged over the past few months. We find vivid colors, pure pigments and refined works that are his signature.
The wounderchild
Qualified as an abstract art prodigy, Mégane MEG Fortin began painting at the age of 7 with French-Canadian artist Maurice Louis during an introductory abstract painting workshop for children from the town of Stoneham-et-Tewkesbury.
His works were presented to the public during an exhibition at the Jean-Luc Grondin Library. His 19 canvases on display sold out within days and some made it to Europe. At the age of 9 she joined the ArtZoom International Artists Collective (CIAAZ).
His work has been exhibited in Miami, Los Angeles, and San Francisco, as well as in Europe.
MEG exhibits permanently at the Artisan Moderne gallery in Montreal and is in the permanent collection of the Musée d’art contemporain VR 3D in Longwy, France.
