FIAC 2011 VIP program, the fifth edition of « Chambre à part ».

03-10-2011

 

For the fifth edition of « Chambre à Part », which is part of the VIP program of Parisian contemporary art fair FIAC, Laurence Dreyfus, art advisor and curator, and Alain Borgers, director of the Shangri-La Hotel in Paris, present, from 18th to 23rd October 2011, « Lines and Figures : Conversations ». Exhibition on appointment only.

 

This exhibition is based on a reflection on figurative and abstract art, through a dialogue between Asian, and particularly Chinese, and Western contemporary art scenes.

 

Leading artists will be represented, such as Zao Wou Ki, essential artist of the exhibition, with a work on paper where abstract and calligraphy mix, Yan Pei Ming or Ai Weiwei, whose Conversations Chairs illustrate that dialogue between lines and figures.

 

A significant painting from french artist, Monique Frydman, will participate to that exchange by addressing questions of traces and imprints.

Laurence Dreyfus will also have the pleasure of showing an ash painting produced  for the exhibition specially, by the reknown artist Zhang Huan.

In comparison, Wang Keping's plain wood sculptures, with round and generous shapes, will echo the metallic and shinny sculptures of Zhan Wang.

 

Emerging values of the contemporary art market will also be represented, such as young artist Yang Yongliang, whose photographs of astonishing urban views float behind the mist of traditional chinese painting.

The visitor will discover the work of Yu Hong, a female artist living in Beijing, who will be showed at Ullens at the end of the year, through two paintings depicting characters in a gold background as well as Huang Zhiyang, whose paintings are characterized by dynamic lines and colours that sways between calligraphy and landscape.

Indonesian artist Eko Nugroho, in residency at Sandra and Amaury Mulliez in Paris (SAM Art Projects) proposes two broderies, a medium representative of his œuvre.

 

Video art will be represented by artist Wang Jianwei and photography by the elegant and refined work of Liu Yue, who is also currently displayed at the 2011 edition of the Photoquai Biennale.

An artwork from Olafur Eliasson will stress the playful relationship of light and lines, while participating to the broad diversity of mediums showed.

 

Loyal to her ambition to contribute to the breakthrough of young promising artists, Laurence Dreyfus will present emerging artists such as So Young Choi, who creates urban landscape made of recycled Denim cloth, or Charlotte Cornaton, whose video work, commissioned for the exhibition, retraces her impression of a recent trip in China.

 

The exhibition specifies and confirms the dynamic of the contemporary Chinese art scene in this dialogue with European creative practice. After a first wave of Pop influence, the second generation of artist is indeed, less politically demanding and shows more aesthetical and conceptual concerns.


Ai Weiwei, Charlotte Cornaton, Eko Nugroho, Huang Zhiyang, Liu Yue, Monique Frydman, Olafur Eliasson, So Young Choi, Wang Jianwei, Wang Keping, Yan Pei Ming, Yong Yongliang, Yu Hong, 

Zao Wou Ki, Zhan Wang, Zhang Huan and surprises.

Pictures Reframed

18-11-2009

The tour of Pictures Reframed will start in New York at the Lincoln Center on the 13th and 14th November, 2009 and will pass to the Champs Elysées’s theatre on Friday December 11th, 2009.

Composed in 1874 Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition was experimental in its day and highly visual in its content. It is one of today’s most famous pieces of classical music, a work which has been visited and revisited by countless artists over its 130 year history.

Pictures Reframed, unites two strikingly original artists- pianist Leif Ove Andsnes and visual artist Robin Rhode — in a collaborative performance which centres around Mussorgsky’s epic piano suite Pictures atan Exhibition. Known for his bold “moving” creations and performance-based videos, Robin Rhode and Leif Ove Andsnes have conceived a programme which brings together music and film in an evocative performance, featuring other solo works by Mussorgsky and Schumann, a new commission by Austrian composer Thomas Larcher and culminating in Mussorgsky’s masterpiece.

After « Chambre à Part » in the hotel Sezz in 2006, « Chambres à part II » will take place this year in La Réserve – Paris : Laurence Dreyfus proposes an exhibition of hand-picked artists, in a exceptional and prestigious setting.

Announced in the VIP program of the Fiac, « Chambres à part » presents, inside one of the apartments, a selection of works: the result of two years of two years of peregrinations, seeking contemporary talents.  

Every space of the apartment will be a surprise for the eyes, from the bathroom to the dressing-room, to the bedrooms and the kitchen. Visitors will be invited to walk around from one room to another, ending the visit in an erotic room to explore with a candle. Visits conducted by appointment only.

This exhibition will be the occasion to associate « avant-garde » art with an exceptional Parisian event.


Calcaire Monique Frydman

20-10-2008

Announced in the VIP and events program of the Fiac, the exhibition Calcaire presents the artist’s latest canvases. Monique Frydman is a major figure of French abstraction. She has built her career through her rare and coherent artistic involvement. She rigorously pursues into abstraction her quest for sensitive perception.

Monique Frydman states: « Sight, our sight, is burned by the excess of images. We see too much, and our eyes become blind ». The white paintings CALCAIRE reflect a demand for the purity and self-effacement proper to her work. Her white ethereal canvases oscillate between real and mental space. She makes painting a fundamental artistic experience by affirming her taste for the essential and the diaphanous.

The limestone refers to sedimentation and friability, as does the white in chalk. « White is the soul of chalk » Monique specifies. In this sense, this series is constructed as walls which invite us to look beyond what they seem to be.
This exhibition was necessary in order to view or re-view Monique Frydman’s work. She hasn’t exhibited in Paris for 4 years. Calcaire fits in and can be understood in the perspective of the exhibitions Traces du Sacré at the Centre Pompidou and Richard Serra’s Monumenta at the Grand Palais, both exhibitions which question the beautiful and the sublime.
