[Tania Lebedeff]

Click here for works by Tania Lebedeff.

Tania Lebedeff was born in Germany, 1949. She received a diploma from the Massachusetts Southern University in 1989, a Bachelor of Arts Education of the UQAM - University of Quebec at Montreal - in 1971 and a diploma from the School of Fine Arts in Montreal in 1970.
  
  The quest continues pictorial Tania Lebedeff and favors a creative process where the constant transformation plays a crucial role. Driven by an insatiable curiosity to discover itself deep resonance, it is reflected in its visual language. It tries to create images that could liberate the eye of the conditioning that alienates. It eliminates the too well known and takes the viewer on the edge of the visible and the invisible, the known and the unknown. So many pictures ... so many ... so many probes mirrors ... so many questions ... so many mysteries. Tania Lebedeff explores a gestural freedom in rich, vibrant, figurative or abstract compositions contained or beyond the frame. His works express the life, its chaos, its beats, its contradictions and enigmas.
  
  Tania Lebedeff Receives First Prize in painting Table cultural Richelieu Valley in 2000 and Honorable Mention in the Demidov Foundation Montreal in 1998. In 2002, his work was selected for exhibition in Tokyo and Mishima in Japan before being presented to the Museum of Mont-St-Hilaire.
