RIVAGES

altblog — Lara Gasparotto — Rivages

I basically do what I’ve always done: I photograph what’s around me, my surroundings, my life, my travels. It’s a celebration of life, freedom, and liberty, in a way. But in a little while I’ll start something totally new because I want to take my photography a step further. I’m flying to New Orleans, L.A., Panama and wherever my travels will take me. I’ve mostly been photographing in Europe and I need some new inspirations and want to create some new structures in my images. It will be good to see something new for four months. Lara Gasparotto, 24.08.2012, interview by Sarah Schug in The Word Magazine.  During the exhibition her new book will be introduced, that holds the same title Rivages.

Asger Carlsen — Finlow

Asger Carlsen pourrait se dire sculpteur et exploite la photo comme une matière première, élastique, malléable, généreuse, qui lui pardonne tout. L’image n’est plus qu’une surface pareille à une peau qu’il manipule. Aucune trace de son passage et pourtant le résultat suinte de sa signature.

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.

LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE GOT HERE FIRST

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.
