altblog – Pieter van der Schaaf – Glassbox
«Depuis mon arrivée à Paris, je photographie des pierres sur les chantiers et dans les rues en travaux, particulièrement des pierres sur des palettes. Ce qui m’intéresse, c’est la manière dont elles sont emballées : les palettes et les attaches soulignent l’aspect temporaire de leur présence. Je vois les fragments présentés sur les palettes comme des pièces d’un puzzle, des parties d’une image impossible à reconstituer.» Pieter van der Schaaf

altblog – Delphine Burtin
«By hijacking objects from their everyday use and reassigning their significance, the arbitrary combinatory game generated by Delphine Burtin results in a surprising photographic language, in which objects we thought we knew become unfamiliar and the incongruous associations they set in train undermine our conventional representations.»

altblog — Josue Rauscher
Josué Rauscher: J’aime la sculpture quand elle est monolithique et massive mais j’aime encore  plus qu’elle soit légère, disjointe, précaire, vulnérable. En abordant les matériaux et les techniques de façon empirique et sans m’interdire les maladresses, je fabrique des objets qui sont pour moi des bribes, des indices, des fragments de récits que je dispose ensuite dans l’espace.

EXAMINATION OF THE ORIGINS

Filed under: Art contemporain | Tags: , , |

altblog – Isa Melsheimer
The installation’s sculptural elements were conceived based on the features of Quartz’s space, juxtaposed with the architectural shapes of some of Turin’s buildings. Isa Melsheimer explains, « The idea behind the title is my interest in some of Turin’s housing, such as in the Falchera district, and the buildings of Enzo Venturelli, Carlo Mollino, Luigi Nervi, Gabetti and Isola. I think the look of many of these buildings is quite special, very « modern. »

altblog – Béla Pablo Janssen


Les artistes de l’exposition manipulent et bousculent les fonctions de l’image au regard de sa circulation massive, pour explorer ses dysfonctionnements, la vacuité toujours grandissante de sa logique de surenchère. Sélection de sites Internet: Stefania Batoeva, Béla Pablo Janssen, Aude Pariset, Loup Sarion, and Adrien Vescovi.

Galerie Jeanrochdard, Bruxelles. 24.01.2015 – 21.02.2105.


THE BEGINNING

Altblog – Ola Rindel – children between trees
Ola Rindal uses different dimensions and printing methods for each photograph, which is enough to deny the setting up of any linear narrative. The image, far from revealing its secrets, expresses itself with an uncertainty that eventually makes intensely present what is never represented.”
(Frédéric BONNET, For Galerie Catherine Bastide, 2010).

BETWEEN THE FLASHES OF THE LIGHTHOUSE

Filed under: Photographie | Tags: , , |

Maanantai Collective – Between the Flashes of the Lighthouse
Between the Flashes of the Lighthouse is an extension of the series Nine Nameless Mountains, realized by Maanantai Collective in August 2014, 2 years later the first trip to Lofoten. In reference to the exhibition title, the dark moments between the flashes were indeed a sign of the possibility to step into the unknown, the unexpected and the prolific part of the creative process. The new works of Maanantai are playing with subtlety and drive with the direct experimentation of visual perception.
