SPLASH, CAN AND COCK

Filed under: Art contemporain | Tags: |

altblog – Carl PalmSplash, Can And Cock is an art exhibition display behind the window, during winter 2013-14. It plays with the light and the interior/exterior relations. Pieces seem to lay behind the glass to be enjoyed by the passer-bys. Illuminated from the inside, the piece creates warmth and also questions the setting of any shop window or private space open to the outside. Jakup Auce’s new work (Kimberly Clark, 2013) was created for the occasion, while Carl Palm’s piece (Plage de Bureau, 2013) has been travelling for the last months. Curated by Sonia Dermience and Alberto García del Castillo.

Komplot, Bruxelles.  30.10.2013 > 15.03.2014.


L’ÈRE VULGAIRE PASSERA

Filed under: Photographie | Tags: , |

altblog – Slava MogutinIn 1792, revolutionary France establishes the Republican calendar and thereby puts an end to the subsequently called “ère vulgaire” (EV). In 1989, another Revolution eliminates Stalinism in Russia and East Germany. This is the beginning of a new era for the youth of Eastern Europe but also for the West where the awareness of an historic paradigm shift raises.
The exhibition “l’ère vulgaire passera” shows the work of four photographers who echo this major shift: Aleksandr Schumow, Andreas Fux, Slava Mogutin & Brian Kenny.
Guest curator : Patrik Schedler.

Galerie Esther Woerdehoff (Pop-Up, 16 rue du Perche), Paris. 28.11.2013 > 21.12.2013.


REFERENCE POINTS

Filed under: Art contemporain, Photographie | Tags: , , |

altblog – Nicolas Lamas - Partial ViewThe work of Nicolas Lamas is based on a process reflection about space, time, culture and science. Exploring different scientific fields such as astronomy or physics, Lamas formalizes his questioning using various media, playing on codes of monstration, comparing objects which seem a priori to be opposites, to elicit meaning and drama. The young Peruvian artist based in Belgium creates a world crammed with possibilities, creating permanent interactions, ellipses, attractions and repulsions, inversions between horizontality and verticality, incompatibilities between vacuum and matter, distortions of logic.

altblog – Dominique Somers and Egon Van Herreweghe - 01altblog – Dominique Somers and Egon Van Herreweghe -02New duo-exhibition with collaborative and individual work by the artists Dominique Somers and Egon Van Herreweghe in Stilll. The content consists of images reproduced from other books, all belonging to the library of the Antwerp FotoMuseum. By using different modes to reproduce these finds – scanning, photocopying, photographing – the original visual material is manipulated once more. Imperfections of image surface and duplicating techniques are marked. Point of departure was the creation of a book, a jury price given to the artist during Art Brussels at the POPPOSITIONS off fair.

Stilll is a gallery working with artist who use photography as a medium. Expect sculpture, painting, drawing, performance, video… from a photographical point of view.

Stilll, Antwerpen. 06.12.2013 > 18.01.2014.
