“What is essential in my latest paintings is the character,” Lemieux asserts. “The landscape serves as a backdrop. You could have had a land without human beings, you would have had the same landscapes. What changes everything is man. It is the place of beings in the universe that matters. The character takes root in the landscape.” (Michèle Granbois, Jean Paul Lemieux. His Life and Work, p. 63).
