From 12th February to 31st March 2022
Back on the Parisian artistic scene after a departure in the south of France, Murielle Vanhove offers us her latest paintings between movement and color. Feathers appear, flying around shimmering, twirling fabrics. Murielle combines pigments with a perfect mastery of the complementarity of warm and cold tones.
In her work of research between abstraction and figuration, the dresses are based on abstract flat areas. Murielle Vanhove’s work sparkles and caresses. His women are beautiful and romantic, they are free, they move and live intensely.
Stéphane Gautier, still passionate about his Happy Bear, hits the mark by creating a new sculpture in the effigy of his iconic character. He dresses it for the winter and for the rest of the year! For this unprecedented work, the artist bends to the game of patient work of folding and swaps the golden coat of his iconic bear for an integral combination of banknotes. Now his name is Lucky Bear. The bear, in his coat of dollars, immediately captures our flabbergasted gaze by the intersection between the ancestral dimensions of the art of origami and the use of paper dollars, the absolute symbol of modern consumer society. As always, the artist surfs on different levels of reading, between the endearing figure of the object, the gnashing of teeth or enthusiasm in the face of the representation of our capitalist society. Some see Lucky Bear as King Midas imprisoned under its bell, others associate it with a symbol of success. It is certain that Le Lucky Bear by Stéphane Gautier has a lot to teach us…about ourselves. While referring us to our own vision of the world, it offers us valuable support for reflection, and all this for a mere handful of dollars 🙂
