The Dominguez Art Gallery is proud to present one of Canada's most prominent artists, Martin Beaupre.
Since the age of fourteen, Mr. Beaupre, an autodidact painter, has been strongly influenced by the culture and heritage of Asia and by the art techniques of the region's masters. Mr. Beaupre’s artistic goal is to offer us works that would speak to our inner energy; his success is widely appreciated and celebrated. Acclaimed by prominent Canadian art galleries, interior designers, private collectors and auction dealers, Martin’s art offers the perfect balance of energy, serenity and harmony that is so lacking in the spaces we occupy both at home and work.
Martin has described that the continuity of his meditation practice and of his studies have led him to achieve a marriage of both art and energy.
Without exception, there are two major inspirations to Martin's art: the first, is Asian calligraphy inspired by Zenga, a technique practiced by the Buddhist monks’ intent on remaining in a state of awareness; the latter, is from the highly influential Japanese Zen monasteries of the Muromachi Period in the fourteenth and fifteen centuries.
Martin’s latest works reveal his feelings during his last trip to Japan. The brilliant composition of cherry trees suspended on a floating horizon and of Buddhist monks seemingly walking to the Nirvana magnificently describes the artistic knowledge of the painter. Martin Beaupre’s paintings invite us to slide into a deeper stage of our dreams and to join our inner energy.
