Mariette Teisserenc, born in Grand-Couronne ( Seine-Maritime, France), on March 3, 1940, is a French visual artist, painter and engraver. [1] [2] [3] She is also known as "Teisse" or "Teisse-Renc".
Trained as a Graphic designer at Düsseldorf's School of Decorative Arts (1967–1972), [1] [4] she gave up a career in the advertising industry in 1978 to dedicate herself to her artistic practice.
As an abstract painter and advocate for recognition of women artists in France and abroad, [5] [6] [7] she was the President of the French women artists' group " Art et Regard des Femmes ". [8] [9]
Her work is characterized by clean shapes, strong lines and the invariable use of the colour black. It expresses tensions between forms and the search for equilibrium. [10]
In 1969, Teisserenc was awarded a Second Prize for Graphic-Design from the company Henkel & Cie GmbH ( Düsseldorf, West-Germany). In 1971, she received first prize from the Nordwestdeutsche Austellungsgesellschaft mbH (NOWEA, Messe Düsseldorf). In 1983, she received a silver medal from the Bilan de l'Art Contemporain Foundation ( Melun-Almont, France). [1]
In 1996, the Association française d’action artistique (part of the French Foreign Affairs Ministry) and the Ministry for Indigenous Affairs of Quebec awarded her a grant to travel to the Nunavik region and study the use of the ulu, a knife specific to Inuit women. She exhibited the results of her work in 1998 at Riverin-Arlogos Gallery, Eastman, Canada. [11]
In 2012, Teisserenc designed the stained glass windows of Saint-Peter and Saint-Paul Church in Brûlon-sur-Sarthe, France. [12]
