Johan Van Mullem exhibits at Musées royaux des Beaux-Arts de Belgique.

A project supported by Loo&Lou Foundation

Published on April 7, 2023

From 31 March to 23 July, the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium (RMFAB) present For Love’s S(n)ake! an exhibition by Belgian artist Johan Van Mullem. 

By inviting Johan Van Mullem to the heart of their collection of Ancient Art, the Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium establish their role of catalyst to pass on history to the widest audience possible, therefor actively embodying their support for the contemporary creation that puts down its roots in Brussels. 

Originally from Bruges and now a Brussels’ citizen, Johan Van Mullem stands as a true national flagship and a renowned multidisciplinary artist. He will be the only Belgian contemporary artist to be exhibited at the RMFAB this year, and the exhibition is the perfect opportunity to build bridges with his native country. As the only Belgian contemporary artist to be exhibited at the RMFAB in 2023, he meets his country through this exhibition. 

By questioning our changing society in his own individual way, he finds his place within the Remedies exhibitions’ program. Confronted with the ills and symptoms of our humanity, Johan Van Mullem’s art tends to offer a therapeutic path and seems to suggest possible remedies by encouraging us to slow down, reflect and meditate. 

For Love’s S(n)ake! reveals never before shown pieces as well as the latest work produced by the Brussels artist. The body of works on display contrasts with what the public knows of the artist’s work, namely his depictions of phantasmagoric faces, reflecting on what lies within, presented notably during his monographic exhibition at the Musée d’Ixelles in 2016-2017. 

A transition has taken place in recent years from portraits to nature. The health crisis and successive lockdowns have had a catalytic effect on his practice. Forced to slow down, the artist rediscovered his (inner) garden, a new horizon that inspired him to create universes more oriented towards the exterior. The vegetal dimension calls for serendipity and the artist’s colour palette blooms through the dreamy landscapes. The overall effect culminates in a peculiar luminescence enhanced by the use of printing and etching inks. 

Between emotions and memory, between movement and light, some fifty new works, sometimes of an impressive format, open up a timeframe far from any urgency, and offer the public a new perspective, inscribing contemporary creation in its historical roots.

Jean Claude Wouters presents his new exhibition at the ALIEN Art Centre in Taiwan

Published on November 16, 2022

Artist photographer Jean Claude Wouters presents “Light of Void” at the Alien Art Centre in Taiwan, alongside artist Arman from November 23, 2022 to March 9, 2023.

The title of the current exhibition Light of Void, includes purposely the word “light”. It is presently this special light Wouters’ works speak about. “I draw with light, I don’t make a copy of reality”, Wouters says. In japanese photography is translated by shashin, two ideograms meaning copy/reality. In most occasions, photography is used as “a copy of reality”, rather than “drawing with light”. I prefer to think of the photography of the beginnings, in the XIX century, with its special painting feeling.” All the technics Wouters use are very traditional photographic ones and it is a fact that most of them are disappearing quickly pushed out by the new digital technology for photography. In a few years from now, Wouters might not be able to create more the art pieces he makes today that we can see in this current exhibition, while the special mat baryte paper he uses has already became difficult to find. We won’t see anywhere else such a refined nuance of greys like in Wouters’ work– which are never black and white but merely a unique greyish.

Elisabeth Daynès intervenes in the Symposium “Images de l’homme fossile” at the Collège de France

Published on June 16, 2022

Elisabeth Daynès participates in the symposium “Images de l’homme fossile” organized by the Collège de France on Friday June 17, 2022. She will talk about “The Search for Lost Identities”. As an artist, Elisabeth Daynès brings reflection about identity, the significance of the skull, and the face, from our origins, to today, until the future. Her art toys discontinuously with science because science plays a big role in our imaginary. 

The symposium focuses on the multiple images of the fossil man : 

“From the beginning, research on human evolution and prehistory has had a double function. On the one hand, they have developed as new scientific disciplines, at the borders of biology and human sciences. On the other hand, they provided, in the West at least, the substance of a new account of origins that could replace that which the Bible had delivered for centuries.

This mythological and narrative dimension undoubtedly explains in part the fascination that this field of knowledge has always held for the public. Very quickly, the literature and the plastic arts took possession of the “prehistoric” theme, while the scientific knowledge remained still embryonic. A phantasmal prehistory has always rubbed shoulders with the one that archaeologists and paleontologists were trying to reconstitute. The border between the two remained porous and, in their attempts to fill the gaps in the fossil record, the researchers themselves were never free of subjectivity.

This account of origins touches us probably too closely to escape religious, philosophical and sometimes even political presuppositions. Each historical period has produced its own prehistory and human evolution, in accordance with the spirit of the time.

During this symposium, paleoanthropologists and historians of science will discuss the representations of fossil men and Paleolithic societies as they are produced by scientific works, then delivered to the public.”

Published on April 4, 2022

From March 26 to June 26, 2022, Fred Kleinberg joins a group of artists at the Capazza Gallery for their new exhibition, Coexister. 

Galerie Capazza is pleased to present this group exhibition that mixes represented and guest artists, and is in partnership with Galerie Arts d’Australie – Stéphane Jacob. 

“Coexist. Pursue this idea and observe how many waves it will raise, how the radiations will reach the darkest shores. Coexist. To practice, to invite distant colleagues and artists, to propose an opening of the paths towards creation. Coexist. Works with four hands, works that evoke humanity. To coexist with nature, with the passing of time, with the interal or external storm. Several hundred answers have been made for this theme. To coexist in the discovery of the artworks, to pass, to exchange, to share, to be moved, to wonder…”
– Laura et Denis Capazza-Durand

On the occasion of this group exhibition, Fred Kleinberg will present paintings from his Reborn series, produced between 2012 and 201. In his own words, this series “focuses on the power of the landscape, on the horizon, ramification, fluidity, change, and transformation. Nature wants to be speculum, mirror of the impulses and the instincts of the man.”

Exhibition “Ne me consolez pas…” at l’Abbaye de Flaran

Flaran Abbey invites you to discover the exhibition of Lydie Arickx (contemporary painting).

After studying at the Ecole supérieure d’Arts graphiques Penninghen, Lydie Arickx (1954-), a painter and sculptor of Flemish origin, has been taking part in international exhibitions and events since the 1980s. Recognised as one of the great French contemporary artists and supporting a militant approach to contemporary art made up of perpetual experimentation, it seemed natural that she should be welcomed at the Flaran Departmental Heritage Centre. This flagship exhibition of the summer offers, in the Cistercian spaces of the abbey church, not a retrospective but a refined communion with the place. These twenty painted and sculpted works from 1998 to 2018, with their unfeigned expressiveness, are a striking reflection of his multiple works.

Opening hours of the exhibition at Flaran Abbey :
Until October 17, 2021: daily / 9:30-12:30 and 14:00-18:00

Public performances during the exhibition “Arborescences”  

Château de Chambord

Performances from May 19 to 25, 2021 from 4pm – 6pm
With the support of the Loo & Lou Foundation

Published on May 14, 2021

The Arborescences exhibition at the Château de Chambord will be preceded by a residency during which Lydie Arickx will propose a public performance lasting several weeks. The artist regularly organises cultural events on major national stages (Art Sénat in 2001…) combining contemporary art and performance (creativity courses for schools, companies, hospitals…; cultural events, exhibitions, etc.) and it is quite natural that she will propose a performance during the spring residency which will precede the installation of the exhibition. For a week, under the watchful eye of schoolchildren who have come specifically but also of visitors, the artist will work on a gigantic 8 x 5.50 m canvas previously printed with Botticelli’s Spring. The result will be an integral part of the exhibition and will be visible to the public from 30 May.

Public performances from May 19 to 25, 2021, 4pm-6pm, on the second floor of the castle (included in the entrance fee)

The catalogue of Joël Person’s exhibition at the Haras du Pin available for sale at the gallery

Published on 22 June 2021

Dear friends ,

We are pleased to announce that the catalogue of Joël Person‘s exhibition at the Haras du Pin Sous le ventre d’un cheval emballé is now available for sale at the gallery!

Foreword

The Haras National du Pin is pleased to welcome the exhibition of Joël Person. His nervous and delicate charcoal drawings lead us to a horse’s movements, from their morphology to the artist’s memories.

The exhibition “Joël Person, Sous le ventre d’un cheval emballé” (Joël Person, Under the belly of a wrapped horse) is aimed at all audiences and takes them on a sensitive journey to the heart of the equine world. Person’s universe has found the ideal setting in this place. Heritage and creation are definitely faithful allies in the service of the Orne and the people of Orne, especially young people.

— Christophe de Balorre, President of the Etablissement Publique du Haras national du Pin 

Equus asinus

Joël Person is neither the first nor the last to draw horses. Numerous artists have devoted themselves to them, showing them alone and frozen in a pose, or else mounted by a rider too dignified, twisted in their nobility. I know nothing about the equestrian world and I don’t want to know anything about it: I am content to examine the drawings – my friend, the writer Paul Nizon, considers the horse to be “the taxi of man”. Poor beast, to be worked at mercy, “beast of burden” as we still say. What I see in Joël’s drawings, apart from the appeal to realism – which may seem outdated and even old-fashioned, whereas it is only timeless – is the enigma that emerges from these large equids drowned in pencil and charcoal.

— Frédéric Pajak

The book contains the works from the exhibition, as well as texts on the artist’s work, an interview, and a biography.

This catalogue is available for purchase at the gallery for 14.60€ ! Please contact us by email or phone (+33) 01 42 03 97 if you would like more information about the book.

The term “expressionist” that is often attached to the work of Lydie Arickx is reductive. It is true that her work distorts the figure, twists the material and gives an account of the violence of the world. But her constant search for new materials and new forms nourishes her work beyond any label, in order to express fears, swallows, harsh joys or miraculous apparitions, sometimes with a touching gentleness. Whether she uses canvas, concrete, earth, metal, fabric, 3D prints, concrete or ash, Lydie Arickx transmits an unparalleled energy that makes her one of the most inventive and engaging artists. After her projects at the Cordeliers convent, the La Piscine museum, the Conciergerie and Biron, she will be offering a sensual and powerful exhibition at Chambord for four months, which will lead to a reflection on life and its forms, highlighting the porosity between the medium, the plant and the animal, each form inhabited by a breath that even death cannot complete, but simply entertain.

Arborescences will present around 150 works (drawings, paintings, sculptures, installations, etc.) by the artist. Many of them were created specifically for the exhibition. The event will run from 30 May to 17 October, health conditions permitting. Two public performances by the artist will take place on the afternoons of 12 and 23 April on the second floor of the castle.

The “1 Immeuble, 1 Oeuvre” art program was launched in 2015 under the aegis of the Ministry of Culture, with the immediate support of the FPI, which has been accompanying its development for the past 5 years. Today, more and more FPI members are voluntarily committing, by signing the ministerial charter, to finance the acquisition or production of a work from an artist for each of their real estate programs.

In Thiais, Benoît Luyckx’s bronze sculpture faces Vinci Immobilier’s 1930s-inspired housing. The work invites the imagination and poetry through its purity of form and grace.

Release of the book Impermanence by Catherine Wilkening

Published on 11 March 2021

Dear friends ,

We are pleased to announce the imminent release of the book Impermanence by Catherine Wilkening.

“Twenty years ago, to an actress who was proudly showing off photos of her sculptures during a film shoot, I replied: “I’ve been sculpting for years too, but in my head… I take some clay and I throw it on a wall, I create shapes, I imagine… in my head.” It’s as if I was waiting for something to happen, a shock, to allow me to give flesh to my dream, to dare to put my hands in the material. Since then I have never stopped sculpting, challenging my curiosity further and further, creating dozens of sculptures, more and more audacious, both in size and in structure…”

– Catherine Wilkening

This book offers magnificent impressions of the artist’s sculptural work over two decades as well as texts written by critic Philippe Godin.

This singular object will be available for purchase from Tuesday 16 March at the gallery for €25!

Do not hesitate to contact us by email or phone (+33) 01 42 03 97 if you want more information about the book Impermanence.

published 24th September 2020

The Árvore Residence Award was created in 2019 and aims to promote ceramics as an autonomous language of contemporary artistic creation. One of this initiative’s objectives is to support the continued study of creative and research work of visual artists in this field.

In 2020 the Prize for Artistic Residency – JUSTMAD was awarded, which in its editions has a program of artistic residencies oriented towards artistic creation. Thus, after a meeting with members of the management of Árvore – Cooperativa de Actividades Artísticas, CRL and Semíramis Gonzalez, artistic director of the contemporary art fair JUSTMAD, which took place last February in Madrid, they decided to reward the French artist Louise Frydman.

The pieces produced during the artist’s residency will be part of the artist’s solo exhibition in rooms 2 and 3 of the Árvore from 10 to 31 October 2020.
