This is is not a book showcases the entire collection of books published and produced by Rosascape since its establishment in 2009. The very title of the exhibition suggests an understanding of the book as a space for the creation and exhibition of a work in its own right — as a total redefinition of the very nature of the book.

What is extraordinary about neurones is that they are essentials to us and yet go beyond our senses. The Brainbow imagery system makes neuronal connections visible : they appear as pixels, color dots that nothing but piling up and looking from a distance can reveal as a consistent whole.

(French only) Alun Williams est un peintre d’histoire. Mais il ne peint pas des couronnements royaux comme David ou des scènes de guerre comme Gros. Alun Williams raconte l’histoire de la peinture. Il nous invite à regarder l’art avec légèreté, en se « délestant » du poids de l’histoire.

The Louvre invites Wim Delvoye to intervene at various locations within the museum and nearby: under the Pyramid, in the Napoleon III apartments, in the Gothic galleries of the Department of Decorative Arts, and in the Tuileries gardens. Wim Delvoye is the second artist, after Tony Cragg in 2011, to create a new, monumental sculpture.

The paintings by Guillaume Bresson combine formal harmony and narrative quirkiness, making the artist a worthy heir of the literary and cinematographic avant-gardes. The exhibition broadens processes and sources of creativity, emphasising friction between the representations and space-time.

Gathering François Génot, Muriel Moreau and Line Orcière in the same exhibition was obvious. Their work follow a thread of similar sensitivities, which are always developed in contact with nature, then refined and sharp when drawing.

(French only) On pourrait considérer deux type de vécus : celui de l’Extérieur et celui de l’Intérieur.
Dans mon travail de sculpture, j’apporte une « charge » à l’œuvre en cours de réalisation, charge qui est soit purement mentale (incantation sérieuse ou loufoque, projection de pensée…), soit par l’introduction d’une « relique », d’un petit rien visible ou caché — Skall

(French only) Yuhsin U Chang envisage la matière organique comme médium abondant de potentiels d’expressions, et autant de possibilités de métamorphose. Les matières utilisées, inertes, brutes, résiduelles, rejetées, dépréciées se transforment, dans la perspective d’un devenir. Sculptures fragiles mais dynamiques, elles semblent se mouvoir et s’altérer avec le temps.

(French only) L’exposition réunit une vingtaine d’artistes et interroge autour de trois axes les « usages et convivialité » posant la question du paysage urbain ou familier voir intime, ainsi que l’idée de la temporalité dans la question de l’usage. L’exposition propose tour à tour aux publics d’être regardeurs, acteurs et usagers.

In his monochrome sculptures, white, black, red or blue, Marcello Cinque experiments new materials such as elastic paint and sponge rubber. This material, being able to wrap and roll around itself as if squeezed out of a thick tube of paint, can create real “post-lunar” forms which nullify the laws of gravity.

Pièce Unique Gallery

After the success of the exhibition “The Garden of Exile” in 2010, which invited visitors to take part in a metaphysical meditation on the themes of creation, desire and captivity, the Belgian artist Thomas Lerooy continues to probe the inner frontiers of human experience with two sculptures and a set of new drawings on the theme of memory, “Souvenir”.

Ryan Boatright, Richard Galpin and Katie Goodwin play with colour. Some works take colour as a conceptual starting point; others just play joyfully with the bright stuff.

(French only) L’exposition ainsi que la programmation de performances No Sport, s’attachent à faire de l’échec un principe moteur de la création et de la réception esthétique et à ne pas distinguer la constitution d’un objet ou d’une exposition de son exécution et de sa perception, conjuguant l’expérience esthétique à celle de la vie.

By reinventing an obsolete low-tech sound wave generator in this all-digital age, Bzzz ! serves as a commentary on the history of technology and a tribute to unprocessed, unsampled analog sound : in a word, the raw sound of electricity.

You have to know how to get things over and done with. Bring everything out. Or put everything back in, who knows? For Mrzyk & Moriceau everything starts with the drawing all their three-dimensional works return to. Literally.

Air de Paris Gallery

For her second exhibition at Air de Paris, Leonor Antunes is presenting a series of new sculptures based on the measurements of specific Modernist buildings. Works that are reversals of reversals: nothing less than taking the anti-Modernist gambit.

The work of Albert Moser, a creator as lacking in learning as he is guarded, is a major discovery. Now that his work is revealed, the eternal question arises again of how such work, designed and stored in secret, should be received. Next, Moser’s creations forcefully pose questions about the problem of photography in outsider art.

America always looks ahead. Here there is no history, no heritage or past to weigh down the now. “Teenagers are the future,” say the Americans. And, objectively, itʼs perfectly true. Larry Clark was one of the first to be fascinated by and attempt to relive this period that he always felt he missed out on. Young artists on the US scene always look to teenagers.

For his third show at Praz-Delavallade Gallery, Adi Nes presents a selection of photographs from his new series The Village. As in previous bodies of work, Adi Nes evokes the notions of identity and masculinity, however The Village distinguishes itself by being situated in the open country, and more importantly by its references to Greek tragedy.

(French only) Les nouvelles sculptures présentées par Stephen Maas peuvent se réunir sous le signe du déplacement et de la transformation. Déplacements de mots, de lettres, de matériaux et de formes, mais aussi d’usages et de positions. Autant d’occasions de provoquer, d’observer et de retenir des états de matière et de signification paradoxaux.

The agricultural theatre is a study day organised by Betonsalon and dedicated to exploring the political, socio-economic and ecological stakes of the production, transformation and distribution of agriculture, historically and today.

Ananas addresses and untangles the various strands of the global spider web that makes up a multinational fruit company. Taking Ananas as a starting point, a number of specialists have been invited to give a history of these well-travelled plants and to comment on the various issues of their industrial production.

Morgane Tschiember explores the performative qualities of materials, whether with added value or worthless — metal, foam, glass, plastic — which she subjects to all kinds of impacts. Each of her works conceals a series of various efficient actions which form a sort of subtext for it. She unveils the “making” at work behind the forms she produces.

The exhibition Ici, organised in parallel with the exhibition Là-bas at the Maison européenne de la photographie, allows us to discover intriguing spaces, the far off, places which are far and beyond what we know but which somehow seem localisable.
