Mathieu Bonardet

Adjunct Faculty

Artist, and educator based in Paris.

Education
Fine Arts studies (drawing) at École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts of Paris (DNSAP – Master Degree) and a semester (exchange program) in the MFA program of Hunter College of New York.

Work Experience
His body of work leads draftsmanship beyond the limits defined by the space of a sheet of paper: his practice initially brought him to film or photograph actions (notably in the photographic series and video Ligne(s), 2011 which was featured on the cover of ROVEN magazine in 2014, then exhibited at the König Galerie in Berlin in 2017, or in the selection of Drawing Now in 2019) before directing his attention to volume. His work currently oscillates between drawing and sculpture, which feed off each other — a conversation between graphite, and steel.
