Justin Weiler

Justin Weiler's artistic practice involves a continual re-examination of pictorial questioning and its concepts of materiality and physicality. Through patterns and figures from domestic or daily life—such as blinds, showcases, steel curtains, greenhouses, and screens—his creations investigate light through color and black. Given the notion of inside and outside, they act as monochromatic intermediaries on a visual plane, simultaneously serving as both a canvas and a window. Through empiricism, the superpositions and repetition of the covering gesture, as well as the glass architectures or canvases in space, create textures and cutouts that shift the boundaries of painting.

Originally from Paris and born in 1990, Justin Weiler lives and works between Nantes and Paris. He graduated from the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris with honors (DNSAP 2017) and was an artist-in-residence at the Académie de France in Madrid, at the Casa de Velazquez from 2019 to 2020. His work has been featured in several exhibitions in France, such as at the Collection Lambert in Avignon during ¡Viva Villa!, as well as in China, Cyprus, Canada, Dubai, and Luxembourg. In 2023, he created the window displays for Maison Saint Laurent in Paris, London, Milan, Seoul, Los Angeles, New York, Dubai, Hong Kong, and Tokyo. In 2022, the Mobilier National acquired three of his works for the creation of two rugs and a tapestry, and in 2023, he installed a monumental piece within the Palais de l’Élysée as part of the Mobilier National acquisitions.
