Slash videos : Philippe d'Hémery

Magazine  /  Reportage With this first reportage, Slash opens its Videos section and offers an insight into the secretive world of collectors. The first in a series which is currently being developed, we invite you into the depths of a collection as surprising as it is exceptional: Elisabeth and Philippe d'Hémery's collection where contemporary art has emerged from a natural disaster.

(French only) Binary Waves (les ondes binaires) est une installation cinétique du collectif bruxellois LAb]au}.

Lilian Daubisse

Lilian Daubisse — Solo Show

“Like the Tibetan Buddhist monks when they work to make a mandala of sand, Lilian Daubisse transforms common materials into precious objects. Objects of curiosity, the works are moving in their poetry and enigmatic beauty. They invite us to dream, to travel and to explore the sense.” — Sylvain Carré

 
L’Asile des photographies - Lafayette Anticipations

L’Asile des photographies

In 2009, photographer Mathieu Pernot and historian Philippe Artières were invited by the art center Le Point du Jour to create works using the archives of the Psychiatric Hospital Le Bon Sauveur, located in Picauville (Manche). This exhibition at la Maison Rouge presents the work realised by these artists and writers based on these archives.

Lafayette Anticipations
 
Eternel Retour - Perception Park Gallery

Eternel Retour

This exhibition groups works which give pride of pace to light. Yet light is not presented as a symbol related to cycles (being both the beginning and the end point). We are far from this cyclical conception where everything has been said and therefore is repeated. Here it is a question of believing in novelty, letting oneself be dazzled by the work.

Coming Out - A2Z Art Gallery

Coming Out — Exposition de Mikostic et Fabien Swyngedauw

(French only) Pour la deuxième exposition à la galerie A2Z art, Mikostic invite son compère de toujours, Fabien Swyngedauw. L’art du camouflage dans la jungle urbaine. Le résultat de nombreuses années d’offrande visuelle à un public sans que celui ci ne puisse réaliser à quel point ce petit changement ait pu bouleverser leur approche de l’art.

Les impressionnistes en privé - Musée Marmottan Monet

Les impressionnistes en privé — 100 chefs-d’œuvre de collections particulières

(French only) Cette exposition offre l’opportunité unique au public de découvrir des tableaux pour la plupart jamais vus. Une centaine de chefs-d’œuvre impressionnistes constitue un ensemble d’exception. « Les Impressionnistes en privé » témoigne de la présence et de l’engouement toujours vifs des maîtres impressionnistes au sein des collections privées.

Konstantin Grcic - Kreo Gallery

Konstantin Grcic — Man Machine

Clearly, Konstantin Grcic is a designer who thrives on challenges whatever the technical constraints or time required for a project to unfold. For his new furniture collection Man Machine taken from the name of the 1978 album by legendary group Kraftwerk he has worked exclusively in glass.

Kreo Gallery
 
Berlinde De Bruyckere & Philippe Vandenberg - Lafayette Anticipations

Berlinde De Bruyckere & Philippe Vandenberg — Il me faut tout oublier

(French only) Cette exposition réunit le travail de deux artistes belges de générations différentes : une sculpteur, Berlinde De Bruyckere (née en 1964 à Gand) et un peintre, Philippe Vandenberg (1952, Gand — 2009, Bruxelles), quasiment jamais exposé en France. Berlinde De Bruyckere a choisi d’assurer exceptionnellement le commi…

Herta Müller - Berthet – Aittouarès Gallery

Herta Müller — Sillages

Herta Müller’s painting can be distinguished by a pallet of light colours, a waxed background of delicate shades, where space prevails, punctuated by signs. Where the colour is fuller and stronger, the path of the brush becomes deliberately more visible, always perfectly controlled.

Berthet – Aittouarès Gallery
 
Tout, est ce que nous avons toujours voulu - Espace Khiasma

Tout, est ce que nous avons toujours voulu

This project presents the art created by ten artists working with adolescents. A veritable collaborative process between artists and students, it bears witness to a protocol of experimentation that encourages moving beyond preestablished situations, transgressing traditional hierarchies of knowledge in the educational environment as well as questions of authorship.

Espace Khiasma
 
L’état du ciel - Palais de Tokyo

L’état du ciel — Première partie

"L’état du ciel” is a homage to many artists, poets and philosophers reflections on the physical, moral and political factors that shape our world. Over the course of a season at the Palais de Tokyo, it will present over ten proposals or exhibitions centering on that theme.

Palais de Tokyo
 
Philippe Mayaux - Loevenbruck Gallery

Philippe Mayaux — Æntre

Philippe Mayaux is unusual because he never lets his judgement come to rest on the definitive character of things. He takes them from the world without a fixed hierarchy, but follows the principles that govern his way of torturing materials of all kinds and his convoluted science of their religion, a kind of extension of Robert Filliou’s principle of equivalence.

Il Mondo di Fausto Melotti - Karsten Greve Gallery

Il Mondo di Fausto Melotti

Fausto Melotti is among those spirits in the history of art and thought who does not allow themselves to be defined by a specific category such as “sculptor” or “poet”. An engineer by training and artist by vocation, Melotti spans a historic period where, in the Italy of industrial innovations and memories of more or less recent wars, abstraction would only be recognized a few decades after its earliest onset.

Karsten Greve Gallery
 
Maleonn - Magda Danysz Gallery

Maleonn — Studio mobile

World-wide famous, the shanghaiese artist Maleonn shows for the first time in Paris his “Studio Mobile” series which is the result of his journey through the whole China in 2012. This exhibition gives a true picture of the society at a given time, in all its diversity, full of excitement between photographs from another time.

Magda Danysz Gallery
 
Esther Ferrer - MAC VAL Musée d'art contemporain du Val-de-Marne

Esther Ferrer — Face B. Image / Autoportrait

Superstructures - Le 6b

Superstructures

Bearing on the challenges raised by trying to free oneself of gravity and inertia, this exhibition has been designed in the image of the works of architecture or the large ships which are named “superstructures”. Used in the singular, “superstructure” is a term which defines the moral, religious and artistic order of society: symbolic power in general.
