Jorge Molder has from the 70s developed a photographic œuvre situated between dream and meta-reality. He explores the depths of memory by acting out certain scenes, underlying which are certain cinematographic, literary and pictorial references.

Bernard Bouche Gallery

France, Germany and Russia are justifiably considered as the principal centres of avant-garde photography during the two world-wars. All the same, during the same period, Czechoslovakia was also seeing the development of a large number of original works which were a significant contribution to the development of photographic art.

All of Marie Dorigny’s photos reveal a woman impassioned by equality. An authentic ‘Passionara’ of the politically engaged image. Her images, which have won numerous awards and denounce the unacceptable borderless violence of our societies, have become key works.

Drawing from a personal multi-epoch spanning collection of images accumulated through the years covering anonymous individuals, unknowns, forgotten authors or amateurs or from the press, Michel Frizot, a historian of photography, displays a perspective which goes against the grain of the criteria espoused by history, art and excellence.

Patrick Javault receives the artist Sarah Morris on the occasion of her exhibition ‘Once a Thief’ at the Air de Paris gallery. For around 15 years, Sarah Morris has lead a double life of painter and film maker. Her urban portraits and avant-garde documentaries reflect on the nexus of power and creation.

For more than thirty years, Ernest Pignon-Ernest has covered the city walls with his images. His powerful large scale drawings bring back to the surface traces of a history, of a buried past, of a hidden subject that jars with the contemporary world, with everyday life.

“All of my work is linked to the ideas of action and sculpture. To make a sculpture is an action. To gaze upon a sculpture is an action. The actions in my videos often make reference to sculpture and materials. My sculptures often imply movement.”
— Luciana Lamothe

Alberta Pane Gallery

Paris Photo, the first international fair dedicated to the medium of photography, hosts an international selection of 143 galleries and 26 publishers demonstrating the vitality of the global photographic scene from the nineteenth century until now.

Diary features 10 new paintings, created at the Villa Lena Foundation this fall specifically for this occasion. The ten works can be considered as Yanai’s most personal and intimate work to date. “Sad things in happy colors” as he has recently stated. Moments of subtle tragedies, rejection, loneliness, and foreign alienation dominate the show.

“While preparing the route of my next American trip in 2012, I spotted on the map a town called “Truth or Consequences” (…) I had never been so intrigued by a city’s name”. — Ronan Guillou

(French only) Les Wooden Books ne sont pas des livres-objet, mais les « corrélatifs objectifs » des romans qu’ils évoquent; des objets dont la présence permet de faire naître une certaine émotion.

(French only) Philip Vormwald a choisi pour cette exposition un titre issu d’une réplique du film allemand « Kamikaze ». Dans ce film, Rainer Werner Fassbinder interprète, quelques mois avant sa mort, un agent de l’ordre menant l’enquête dans une société dystocique. Le monde de Vormwald est un monde cinématique qui appelle de multiples références et relit tout de façon vitaminée.

Baraudou Schriqui Galerie

From an aesthetical standpoint, Min’s works are all about formal beauty, especially of Nature without artificiality.
|
La Galerie Particulière

Paul Seawright is internationally renowned for his photographic work in areas of conflict. Exhibited for the first time here at the CCI, these photographs are put in context by a selection from previous projects in Afghanistan and Northern Ireland.

As a solitary journey into the heart of urban solitude and its periphery, particularly that of Montreal, Serge Clément’s work irresistibly draws the viewer into an intimate relationship to the image. The present always seems to be referring back to the memory of a fleeting instant charged with an emotion that is as intense as it is vague.
|
Centre culturel canadien

|
|
For her second exhibition, Claudia Larcher offers an artistic work directly related to architecture. The variety of works is unusually presented: inspired by Kurt Schwitters Merzbau and the work of the “Wiener Werkstätte”, she transforms the space into a Gesamtkunstwerk, integrating and designing also the walls, floor and ceiling.
|
22,48 m² Gallery

Richard Jackson is one of the main figures in American Contemporary Art since the 1970s. Influenced by Abstract Expressionism and Action Painting, Richard Jackson has always sought the performative dimension of painting and to stretch its potentialities, especially by turning its technical conventions upside down.

For this new solo exhibition by Georges Rousse, the Gallery Catherine Putman has chosen a series of photographs and drawings around a star motif which appeared in his work in 2013. The exhibition presents, through a selection of watercolours and photographs, three very different accomplishments.

As a painter, Marie-Anita Gaube constructs worlds and universes which have all the instability of a fleeting memory or fairy-tale obsession. Her paintings are the result of process which interweaves references gleaned from daily iconographic research which are then composed according to a method of montage similar to surrealist collage.
|
Progress Gallery
|
|
|
This new exhibition is an extension of Brandt’s ongoing efforts in exploring historical image making techniques. The nature of woodblock printing being a process of cutting, leaving impressions and printing what remains, led Brandt to think about those who left impressions on him, resulting in a series of works representing the fingerprints of influential artists.

Praz-Delavallade Gallery

|
|
(French only) Calques, fragments, débris. C’est peut-être dans sa propre structure que nous devrions fouiller la vérité intrinsèque des œuvres de Giancarlo Scaglia qui nous interpellent aujourd’hui. Morceaux disloqués de l’ancienne île-prison d’ El Fronton, scène de l’un des massacres paradigmatiques qui ont secoué notre République de Weimar péruvienne.

Our primitive fears related to the night and darkness are so strong that we seem to have always sought to minimize them in time and space. Laurent Mareschal, hosted for a residency in Synesthésie in 2014-2015, is interested in the question of this fight against the darkness.
