DES CORPS LIBRES
“Des Corps Libres – Une jeune scène française", Reiffers Art’s first exhibition of its group-wide initiatives.
This exhibition invites us to explore the body’s possibilities ౼ singular or universal; evanescent, fantastical or digital; anchored in our current world, science fiction or utopian.
From the body-object to the body-subject, from the figurative body to the imprint of a body, from a dream body to a digital avatar body, it is not just a question of freely and opening describing the body, but also of creating the possibility of looking at it in a new way, with total freedom.
The exhibition brings together an entire generation of young talent from the French scene: Ymane Chabi-Gara, Salomé Chatriot, Jean Claracq, Kenny Dunkan, Ben Elliot, Tarek Lakhrissi, Chalisée Naamani, Valentin Ranger, Sara Sadik, Pol Taburet, Sophie Varin, Julie Villard & Simon Brossard, Manon Wertenbroek and Gaspar Willmann.
Curated by Reiffers Art Initiatives committee member Thibaut Wychowanok, the exhibition's body of work questions the representation and fluctuating materiality of the body and celebrates its diversity, struggles and contemporary emancipation.
We produced an art book for the exhibition, containing a series of texts that give context to the work of 15 French artists from the new contemporary scene.
It also features a set of illustrations including images from the exhibition and details on each piece. It is not only a complete visual summary of Reiffers Art Initiatives’ first collective exhibition but also an invitation to explore the body’s possibilities.
Reiffers Art Initiatives is a foundation created to support young contemporary creation and cultural diversity.
Reiffers Art Initiatives’ mission is to support France’s new art scene and give it international visibility. It finances and gives exposure to thirty emerging artists every year, who will influence tomorrow’s contemporary art scene.
NUMÉRO ART 12
Numéro Art, the leading magazine for international contemporary art, features the most influential personalities, events and places in the contemporary creative scene.
For Numéro art, actress Camille Cottin tries her hand at a new role: muse of artist and photographer Lea Colombo, who plunges her into the heart of her flamboyant pictorial universe in a series that pays tribute to Matisse, Picasso and Warhol. Three artists celebrated this season by major exhibitions.
The French film star also talks in a long interview about her unique relationship with art, nurtured by her artist father. Numéro art also photographed the artist Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster in her recent exhibition in Madrid. Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster, one of the most respected and celebrated French artists in the world, reveals herself in an interview as the high priestess of the exhibition, which she transforms into scripted environments and fantastical experiences.
This new Numéro art also gives voice to an exciting new generation of artists including Meriem Bennani, Han Bing, Bianca Bondi, Binta Diaw and Serpas gathered in a collective exhibition "Infiltrées - 5 manières d'habiter le monde".
To be discovered, the humorous and subtle videos and installations of Meriem Bennani, one of the most influential of her generation, the searing and intense works of Ser Serpas (soon to be exhibited at the Bourse de Commerce in Paris), the eco-feminist installations of Binta Diaw, the bold and colorful paintings of Han Bing, and the mystical creations of Bianca Bondi. Five exceptional women artists exhibited by the Reiffers Art Initiativesfoundation this spring in Paris. Once again, Numéro artpays tribute to the vitality of the French art scene with the dreamy paintings of Julie Beaufils and the sensitive and poetic work of Benoît Piéron. This issue also unveils a series of unpublished and subversive paintings by Beninese artist Roméo Mivekannin. And of course, a selection of the essential exhibitions of the season and a focus on the Rencontres de la photographie d'Arles.
