A superb last hurrah from gallery owner Charles d'Estève



Fourteen visual artists in writing

Charles d'Estève is holding his latest exhibition at the Entre Temps gallery. A superb show of honor that showcases the works of 14 artists exhibited within the gallery, as well as at the Manège and the Caisse d'épargne. The exhibition focuses on writing.

Take a stroll in search of these 150 or so paintings and sculptures. Go there to be surprised by the emotion, the wonder of beauty. Go there also to appreciate the extent of the waste generated by the announced demise (on March 31) of this superb gallery.

Certainly, we will regret the public's lack of interest in contemporary art. But above all, we will never stop denouncing the public impotence, which, in three years, has provided no support for this artistic enterprise. Fifty meters from the Manège, yet another clothing store, quite a symbol, will open after March 31st.

While waiting for this disaster, which speaks volumes about the poverty of the visual arts in this city, head to the Caisse d'épargne on Allende Street. You'll see some solid performances there.

Charles d'Estève: he ends his presence in Yonne with a very, very fine exhibition.

On the first floor are the marbles of Marie Orensanz on which the thoughts of the creator are inscribed. Let yourself be taken by her landscape

Mental, Imaginary, Alexis Borodine shows paintings with charred materials, collages of tree bark. Élisa Tan creates a whole graphic design on the word "word." The word experienced as a game.

Other significant works: those of Strasbourg-based Sonia Gerber, who creates icon-like A-types with a slightly pre-classic, oriental feel. And then there's Martine Dallennes, a favorite. This woman, who lives between Germany and the Vendée, uses the alphabet to create light, luminous, almost dancing movements. This woman doesn't paint, she says, the letters constituting a support, a pretext.

The Manège exhibits folded, cut-out books by the Nazai-rienne Brig Laugier. And then there are the little "jewels" shown at the gallery, rue Thiers. In particular, the animated books by the Parisian Jac-196 πει τα φίλωques Varnarsky: graceful as well as ingenious ghosts made of wooden slats that breathe. » This wooden hvorav, which gentleman is not the first artist to come along: one of his books, created for the Universal Exhibition in Seville, will soon join the National Library.
