Biographie de Richard Riverin<\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Je suis le seul artiste qu\u00e9b\u00e9cois et canadien \u00e0 obtenir le premier prix \u00e0 ArtExpo New York: Award Winner For Excellence<\/strong>, ce 11 avril 2026.\u00a0 Il y avait plus de 600 artistes-peintres de plusieurs pays, tous tr\u00e8s talentueux.<\/p>\n

J’ai aussi d\u00e9pens\u00e9 une forte somme pour faire produire 3 livres d’art \u00e0 couvercle rigide au cours\u00a0des derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es: Riverin Modern Impressions Book One, Riverin Modern Impressions Book 2 et Book 3. La pr\u00e9sence\u00a0de ces livres sur ma table lors de l’exposition a aid\u00e9, mais c’est surtout la qualit\u00e9 extraordinaire de mes peintures qui a fait mon succ\u00e8s.<\/p>\n

Je suis n\u00e9 le 2 d\u00e9cembre 1942 \u00e0 Qu\u00e9bec.<\/p>\n

Apr\u00e8s avoir obtenu un B.Sc. en chimie de l\u2019Universit\u00e9 de Sherbrooke en 1965, j\u2019ai travaill\u00e9 comme chimiste chez Peintures Laurentides \u00e0 Shawinigan.<\/p>\n

Le 18 d\u00e9cembre 1970, j\u2019ai cofond\u00e9 avec Anthony Fernandez une manufacture de peintures sp\u00e9cialis\u00e9es, Encoat Chemicals Ltd, situ\u00e9e \u00e0 Ville Saint\u2011Laurent (Montr\u00e9al).<\/p>\n

En 1975, j\u2019ai vendu ma participation \u00e0 mon associ\u00e9, et j\u2019ai acquis aupr\u00e8s de Claude Goyer, pr\u00e9sident de PanArt Lt\u00e9e, une franchise de galerie d\u2019art au Carrefour Laval. Lorsque PanArt a cess\u00e9 ses activit\u00e9s, j\u2019ai incorpor\u00e9 cette franchise sous le nom de Galerie d\u2019Art du Carrefour Laval Inc. le 19 avril 1982.<\/p>\n

En 1994, j\u2019ai obtenu un visa E\u20112 du consulat am\u00e9ricain et j\u2019ai ouvert une galerie d\u2019art \u00e0 Palm Beach Gardens, Floride.<\/p>\n

En 1998, j\u2019ai d\u00e9m\u00e9nag\u00e9 ma galerie \u00e0 Naples, en Floride, puis en 2004, je l\u2019ai relocalis\u00e9e \u00e0 Hilton Head Island, en Caroline du Sud.<\/p>\n

En 1999, confront\u00e9 \u00e0 des difficult\u00e9s financi\u00e8res, je ne pouvais plus me permettre d\u2019acheter des \u0153uvres d\u2019art \u2014 ma seule issue \u00e9tait de cr\u00e9er mes propres peintures.\u00a0Fort de 24 ans d\u2019exp\u00e9rience en tant que galeriste, je connaissais les tendances du march\u00e9 de l\u2019art et comprenais que mon travail devait surpasser celui des grands artistes repr\u00e9sent\u00e9s dans les galeries de Naples. J\u2019ai commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 peindre tous les jours, d\u00e9truisant mes toiles les unes apr\u00e8s les autres par frustration. Le talent n\u2019\u00e9tait pas au rendez-vous, mais j\u2019ai continu\u00e9 \u00e0 peindre quotidiennement, en d\u00e9testant cela, priant Dieu de m\u2019aider \u2014 et puis, un miracle s\u2019est produit. J\u2019ai commenc\u00e9 \u00e0 cr\u00e9er de v\u00e9ritables chefs-d\u2019\u0153uvre, et six mois plus tard, je suis devenu l\u2019un des artistes les plus vendus de Naples, en Floride.\u00a0<\/p>\n

De 2002 \u00e0 2014, j’ai expos\u00e9 mes \u0153uvres\u00a0\u00e0 ArtExpo New York. Chaque ann\u00e9e, j\u2019ai figur\u00e9 parmi les exposants connaissant le plus de succ\u00e8s.<\/p>\n

J’ai cess\u00e9 d’y exposer lorsque j’ai ouvert en 2014 Galerie Saint-Paul dans le Vieux-Montr\u00e9al.\u00a0Avec les deux galeries \u00e0 g\u00e9rer, je n’avais plus le temps.<\/p>\n

J’ai ferm\u00e9 les deux galeries, celles de Montr\u00e9al et de Hilton Head Island, en 2020 avec l’arriv\u00e9e de la COVID-19.<\/p>\n

Les 5 ann\u00e9es\u00a0qui ont suivi, je fus inactif.<\/p>\n

L’hiver dernier, \u00e0 l’\u00e2ge de 83 ans, j’ai recommenc\u00e9 \u00e0 peindre tous les jours en vue de ma participation \u00e0 ArtExpo\u00a0New York 2026, du 8 au 12 avril.\u00a0 J’ai lou\u00e9 un gros kiosque et j’ai pr\u00e9par\u00e9 mes peintures en peignant de noir le c\u00f4t\u00e9 des toiles, sachant que je n’aurais pas la force d’exposer ces peintures encadr\u00e9es.<\/p>\n

Je fus l’artiste vedette de l’exposition et j’ai obtenu ce premier prix.<\/p>\n

Ce succ\u00e8s m’a encourag\u00e9 \u00e0 exposer \u00e0 Spectrum Chicago (ArtExpo Chicago) en octobre prochain. J’ai r\u00e9serv\u00e9 et pay\u00e9 un gros kiosque, la chambre d’h\u00f4tel, les billets d’avion, j’ai pr\u00e9par\u00e9 et emball\u00e9 les 46 peintures que je vais exposer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sur mes sites internet, www.galeriesaintpaul.com\/fr et www.richardriverin.com, vous pourrez examiner les 600 peintures que j’y ai plac\u00e9es.\u00a0 Ma technique est unique : aucun artiste n’a peint comme moi.\u00a0Elles\u00a0sont\u00a0toutes diff\u00e9rentes mais on reconna\u00eet l’artiste dans chacune. Les collectionneurs appr\u00e9cient la spontan\u00e9it\u00e9, la texture \u00e9paisse, la diversit\u00e9, et l’harmonie des couleurs. Chacune offre une pr\u00e9sence attachante et r\u00e9confortante \u00e0 ceux et celles qui vivent avec elles au quotidien.<\/p>\n
