Xippas is pleased to announce that Quartier quadrillé, 2023, a painting by Mathieu Cherkit, has entered the Museum of Modern Art of Paris (MAM) Collection.

A prominent voice in the new generation of French figurative painters, Cherkit creates richly textured oil paintings that depict the interior of his own home, a recurring setting that becomes a stage for memory, imagination, and introspection.

Blending multiple perspectives, vivid colors, and sculptural layers of paint, his work challenges traditional spatial conventions to construct deeply personal, immersive environments. With this acquisition, Cherkit’s singular vision now enters one of France’s most important public collections.
