Richard Taittinger Gallery NEW YORK — We are thrilled to present our first solo show of Morgan Tschiember at Richard Taittinger Gallery. We have been representing her for three years now, following the group show Monochrome 1957-2017 curated by Gregory Lang. In addition, we have exhibited her work consecutively for three years at Art Paris (2022, 2023, and 2024). We are particularly excited about this current upcoming show I Poisoned Myself.

Morgane Tschiember is a French artist whose work transcends the boundaries between sculpture, painting and installation. Born in 1976 in Brest, she trained at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris. The artist is distinguished by its exploration of materiality, transformation and the encounter between chaos and order. Morgane is distinguished by her bold use of unconventional materials such as resin, wax, foam, glass and metal, creating sculptures and installations that defy traditional norms of form and structure. Her work takes the manipulation of physical matter as a starting point for metaphysical questioning. Morgane Tschiember shared her studio with Olivier Mosset for 5 years and has done several residencies, including 1 year at ISCP (New York, NY), Fawu Price residency (Los Angeles, CA), Kultur ensemble (Palermo, Italy).

She has exhibited in institutions such as: Fondation Yves Saint-Laurent, Fondation Pernod Ricard, MACVAL, Musée des Beaux arts de Dôle (France), MOCA of Tucson (Arizona, USA), Vilnius Contemporary Art Center (Lithuania), Elevation Biennale in Gstaad (Switzerland), Oaxaca MACO Museum (Mexico), Riso Palazzo Museum of Palermo (Italy).

Her work is part of many prestigious collections in the USA: Andy Warhol Foundation (New York, NY), Design Center of the Americas (Miami, FL), 21C Museum (Louisville, KY) ; in Europe: MAMCO (Geneva, CH), CAB Foundation (Brussels, BE), CNAP, MACVAL, Dior, Société Générale, Francois Pinault, Yves Saint-Laurent (Paris, FR); and currently: FIAF French Institute Alliance Française (New York, NY)
