Robert Marchessault | Les Murs Vivant | Advance Preview

September 10 - October 5, 2026
Bau-Xi Gallery | Dufferin
1384 Dufferin Street, Toronto

Opening Reception: Saturday, September 12, 2 - 4 PM | Artist in Attendance

This September, Bau-Xi Gallery | Dufferin presents Les Murs Vivant, a new series by Robert Marchessault inspired by the vertical gardens he encountered in Aix-en-Provence. Building on his longstanding paintings of trees and foliage, Marchessault distills the landscape to its essential forms, eliminating trunks and branches to focus on the movement, rhythm, and energy of dense fields of greenery. Reflecting his own approach to gardening, these paintings explore the pleasure of arranging and observing the natural world, inviting the viewer’s eye to move through each composition as one might through a garden.

All artworks are now available for acquisition. To secure a piece, please contact us at 416-977-0600 or toronto@bau-xi.com.
