El fantasma de Tennessee
Ends in about 1 month: May 23 → July 26
You, I drink you dry.
I lick you, I eat you. I devour you. My belly is stretched tight
like a drum,
my eyes struggle to hold back the tears
of my pleasure. You penetrate me
to the core. I possess you, I cover you. I preserve you. Under a bell jar, I hold you, I
digest you. I assimilate you, you become me.

Aurélien Froment, Armineh Negahdari — Un oiseau passe. Je le suis
Ends in about 1 month: March 20 → May 17
It is substitution, or rather transmutation, that connects the practices of the two artists chosen for this exhibition. There is something of a constant transformation, the possibility of a perpetually fluid state, in each of their work.

Ends in 17 days: January 9 → March 15
“I have lived within a lyrical poem, like anyone possessed.”
Pier Paolo Pasolini
"Skin hunger. Sometimes it seemed that my skin ached like an empty belly. The fine hairs below my navel seemed to reach up, wanting to touch something. My mouth would open when I slept and my tongue would push at the air, reaching, re…

Charlotte Moth — par les lueurs
Ends in 13 days: October 12 → December 21
Charlotte Moth has a fondness for mirrors. They help her look at what surrounds her through reflections or dim glows. These indirect modes, and especially the lightness akin to Perseus, who often guided Calvino, are Charlotte Moth’s great allies.

“ I remember when women wore jabots on their blouses. Sometimes these jabots were quite ornate and were taken off when the blouse was sent to the laundry. Then you would find the jabots in drawers and hanging from belt racks like little creatures that hibernated when they didn’t have anything to be attached to. ” Pat…

Ernesto Sartori — Scaffalando
Past: May 24 → July 20
Ernesto Sartori continues his experiments with paintings which he makes while thinking of “planet-forms” or erasers rounded by wear. He envisions them as smooth and, to achieve this, he sands the wooden support to round it off. He imagines a 90° vision or, in any case, a geometry that is, as always, unconventional, wi…

Armineh Negahdari — parfois un peu beaucoup
Past: September 7 → October 7, 2023
Armineh Negahdari and Lola Gonzalèz express very directly what they feel. What they have in common is the precious time they spend listening to themselves, with the aim of seeing themselves and the world as it is, rather than as we would like to see it. With Armineh, this desire to connect deeply with life involves in…

Marie Cool Fabio Balducci — Spiaggiamento
Past: September 14 → October 28, 2017
L’œuvre de Marie Cool Fabio Balducci est superbement aphone. Qui peut savoir comment fonctionnent deux personnes occupées en permanence à partager leur intensité extrême à travers l’acte de créer ? De cette intensité naît une étrange chaîne de visions qui oscillent entre le secret et une éventuelle révélation.

Laura Lamiel — Un ange en filigrane
Past: February 9 → April 1, 2017
Dans le recueil « Printemps noir » d’Henry Miller se trouve une courte nouvelle, « Je porte un ange en filigrane ! », que Laura Lamiel a annexé récemment à sa bibliothèque. Ce texte a vite trouvé sa place dans nos dernières conversations autour des œuvres que nous souhaitions montrer. Cette exposition est une totalité organisée de façon à inclure le dynamisme d’un processus créatif qui toujours trouve de nouvelles possibilités pour observer une réalité se faire et se défaire sans trêve.

Ian Kiaer
Past: September 12 → November 9, 2013
Ian Kiaer develops a model of a work laid bare, rehabilitating and breaking in its own way the notion of enjoyment. His personal field lies on the questions submitted to cultural considerations decoded time after time by the critics, moving on to the personal expression of a certain illegibility, capable of apprehending the spectator.

Ernesto Sartori — Quand deux deviennent un
Past: March 1 → April 22, 2013
The exhibition When two become one gives Ernesto Sartori the possibility to affirm his position as an author. Motivated by what we could call a logical revolt, he coalesces the rationality of the calculations of prospective architecture with the narrative chaos of a fanciful universe.

Past: September 13 → November 3, 2012
The exhibition _Villa Surprise_ gathers different works made from similar principles of connections and juxtapositions. They pursue a discussion about the complex relations in-between photography and sculpture. The works in the exhibition contribute to tighten those bonds and to define the parts played by the different media that the artist uses.
