Méïr Srebriansky (b. 1976 in Strasbourg, France) is an abstract painter based in New York City. He earned his BFA from École Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs in Strasbourg. In France, influenced by French and American New Wave cinema, he painted a series called “Wasted Pictures” which were based on blurred film stills. It was then that his paintings started entering the world of abstraction. Moving beyond oil and acrylic, the artist incorporates resin in his painting practice. Now, reoccurring shapes, often derived from his figurative drawings, colors, and both two and three dimensional forms guide his labor-intensive process driven by popular culture, science, and the depths of his own imagination. Srebriansky has participated in residencies at Vermont Studio Center and Con Artist NYC. He has exhibited in the United States, Europe, and Asia at the Belskie Museum, Closter; European Parliament, Strasbourg; 81 Leonard Gallery, New York; East End Culture Club, Southampton NY; HK Walls, Hong Kong; one of his murals is permanently on view at The Mes Hall. Meir has an installation in the lobby of the HSBC Tower across the street from Bryant Park in New York City. He was included in Friend of the Artist Vol. 11. Srebriansky continues to actively make work out of his studio at Mana Contemporary in Jersey City.
