Mitchell/Riopelle: Yves Michaud raconte

Yves Michaud, philosopher, essayist, and art critic, discusses the Mitchell/Riopelle couple. "Now that time has begun to pass—Joan Mitchell died in 1992 and Jean-Paul Riopelle in 2002—but not enough for only the legends of these 'illustrious painters' to remain, an exhibition juxtaposing two major artists of the second half of the 20th century, who passionately and tumultuously shared twenty-four years of their lives (and a little more, since I witnessed some of their meetings after their official separation), is entirely appropriate." - Yves Michaud. "Mitchell/Riopelle: A Couple in Excess" from October 12, 2017, to January 7, 2018, at the Musée national des beaux-arts du Québec. https://www.mnbaq.org/exposition/mitc...
