About the Item

From the beginning of my practice, I have maintained a feminist perspective and a questioning of modernism. Conceptual queries and artistic explorations have taken several aesthetic and formal paths, be it the environmental structures of the 1980’s, the text-based painting installations Miss Lonelyhearts and The Black Notebooks or the recent Flatland series of shaped, abstract panels. I have never sought to develop a consistent voice, as I question the deeply embedded modernist notion of artistic originality. However, based on stylistic conventions and the work of artists from the past, plus the use of strategies of chance, the work becomes my own. As well, I seek to re-examine aspects of that which is disparaged such as ornament and the decorative and validate them as contributing to the history of abstract art as it emerged in modernism. All of my conceptual queries reflect concerns of continuing social significance, such as the voice of women in society and, more specifically, women’s cultural production and the binary polarities of thought that dominate our current social, cultural and political discourses. I have sought to articulate these issues in a visual language that engages the viewer and causes them to question their perceptual and intellectual assumptions. Brigitte Radecki was born in Germany, immigrated to Canada as a child and currently lives and works in Montreal and Cape Breton Island, Canada. She received her BFA and MFA from Concordia University in Montreal and has shown her work throughout Canada, as well as Europe (Lyon, France; Erfurt, Germany) and the US (Dallas, Texas). She has been a recipient of several grants. Her work is in private as well as corporate, and public collections such as the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts, Canada Council Art Bank, Air Canada and the National Bank of Canada.
