MENDELSON JOE

Mendelson Joe is a Canadian artistic tour de force. Prolific as a musician/songwriter/performing artist, M. Joe is best known for his colourful output as an iconic painter of most original landscapes and portraits. He is literally a group of one in a class by himself.

Joe's paintings are collected by some of Canada's most prominent art patrons, including media visionary Moses Znaimer, rock musician
Neil Peart, philanthropist M. Joan Chalmers, and famed children's entertainer Raffi Cavoukian.

In 2005, Toronto publisher ECW Press published Joe's third book, a collection of fifty portraits titled Joe's Toronto.

Mendelson Joe sees the world with clarity, shares his vision with us through his art [...]. He is fearless and radical. As someone who has felt his bite in my ass, I know how important he is.
