Rythmes et Vibrations — Adnan, Brown, De Maria, Förg, Jones, Scully, Uslé, Verdier
Past: June 4 → July 24, 2020
Right from the start of abstract art, there was a split between two lines, indicating seemingly opposed tendencies: on the one hand a structured and economical art, often proscribing curves, seeming to privilege the cerebral and programmatic, and on the other, a warmer and more informal art in which spontaneity and sensitivity imposed their rhythm.

Kiki Smith — Homecoming
Past: October 10 → November 16, 2019
Kiki Smith’s work oscillates between light and darkness, slipping from the peacefulness of domesticated nature to an untameable animality in order to enter the world of the night, that specific moment where pleasure and fear combine. She reveals our most unfathomable fears, which haunt the deepest reaches of our intimacy and that we strive to keep hidden.

Giving basic graphic symbols their full power as primitive writings, has always been one of the objectives of the paintings of Antoni Tàpies.

Choices Paris — NextLevel Galerie
Past: May 21 → 22, 2016
San Francisco-based artist John Chiara (born in 1971) pushes the boundaries of the photographic medium through his choice of process and the mastery of its possibilities. His approach is distinguished by its incredible physicality and recalls the early days of the medium when artists dealt with heavy, awkward equipment and endured long exposure and development times. Chiara’s giant cameras, which he designed and built himself, are transported to locations on a flatbed trailer to produce one-of-a-kind large-scale prints. The design of the cameras, which is much like daguerreotype box cameras, allows the artist to simultaneously shoot and perform his darkroom work while images are recorded directly onto oversized photosensitive paper (not film). This process, which Chiara first discovered as a student in 1999, invites anomalies in his final prints and adds to the mystery and lyricism of his pictures.

Sean Scully — Doric
Past: May 15 → July 11, 2014
“Doric” is a cycle of large works that measure the same format, made up of various combinations of grey, black and cream and consist of three large panels assembled together. Sean Scully designed this ensemble in homage to Greece, indeed, in his own words, as a “love letter" to Greece, “a country to which we owe so much”.

Past: November 14, 2013 → January 11, 2014
Lin Tianmiao makes works that question Chinese society and its relationship with the antagonisms that run through it: past/present; masculine/feminine; tradition/globalization.

Juan Uslé — De la luz silenciosa
Past: November 8, 2012 → January 12, 2013
Juan Uslé is a sensitive and private artist who avoids the madding crowds and likes to be able to concentrate. Although apparently abstract, his painting is sustained by the observation of reality, a meditation on the artists he admires, and it oscillates between a romantic nocturnal pole and a baroque and brightly coloured solar pole.

Ana Mendieta — Blood and Fire
Past: September 8 → October 8, 2011
Lorsque Ana Mendieta meurt à New York en novembre 1985, cette jeune artiste de 36 ans n’est connue que d’un cercle restreint. Son œuvre radicale n’a été exposée que de façon relativement confidentielle depuis 1976 et c’est l’exposition du New Museum of Contemporary Art, en 1987 à New York, qui commence à mettre en lumière la force de ce travail.

Jan Voss — De la pluie et du beau temps
Past: May 19 → July 9, 2011
L’univers pictural de Jan Voss se déploie sur le papier. Ses aquarelles témoignent d’une joyeuse liberté des mouvements, des signes et des couleurs peuplent les toiles dans des dimensions parfois monumentales.
Le titre de l’exposition est à l’image de l’œuvre et de l’artiste lui-même. Son insouciance et sa modestie sont comme portées en étendard.

Kounellis accepte le défi d’une exposition personnelle où il réagit, cinquante ans plus tard, à trois Peintures de feu de Klein qu’il a tout loisir d’installer parmi de nouvelles œuvres créées pour l’occasion. Ce n’est ni un hommage, ni une exposition de groupe, mais un dialogue par-delà les années.

Antoni Tàpies — Nouvelles peintures
Past: February 3 → April 2, 2011
A 87 ans, l’inspiration et l’énergie d’Antoni Tàpies ne sont pas taries. Jouant des matières, bois nu, poudre de marbre, couvertures ou tissus collés, mariant son habituel vocabulaire de signes abstraits, de lettres, chiffres, croix, graffitis à une figuration récurrente, le grand peintre catalan est plus libre que jamais.

Günther Förg — Come, or the stellar tide will slip away
Past: November 25, 2010 → January 29, 2011
S’il est un trait qui caractérise avant tout la peinture de Günther Förg, c’est la liberté. L’artiste n’est d’aucune école, d’aucune tendance, d’aucune chapelle : il peut peindre des fenêtres, des entrelacs, des paysages, des compositions quasi monochromes, ou bien encore ces constellations de touches colorées très vives.

Karel Appel — Gazing Heads

En 1974, Karel Appel réalise une suite de douze peintures sur papier qu’il intitule « Gazing Head ».
Il découpe un cadre, une fenêtre dans un papier brillant à effet de miroir qu’il colle sur une feuille. Puis il peint vivement une tête très colorée. une bobine, pourrait-on dire, qui surgit dans le cadre et dévisage le spectateur.
