Reiffers Art Initiatives - "Mark Handforth" Exhibition
Mark Handforth inaugurates the Acacias Art Center with new works specially designed for its new spaces.
From his studio in Miami, the heir of the Pop Art generation has worked on one of his signature twists on everyday objects and urban furniture.
Created in collaboration with curator Timothée Chaillou and in partnership with the New York gallery Gavin Brown, the exhibition proposes to explore the theme of light in the artist's work. Bridging Pop Art and Minimalism, the British artist occupies the space with monumental and luminous works that playfully divert everyday objects. Often interwoven with phosphorescent lights, his sculptures intersect with the lights of Paris rooftops visible under the glass roof of the Acacias Art Center.
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.
