Realization of the work “La Plage” by Pascale Marthine Tayou, MonteRossa Vineyard, Brescia. Collaboration with Galleria Continua and BelleArti Brescia.
Born in Nkongsamba, Cameroon in 1966. Lives and works in Ghent, Belgium and Yaoundé, Cameroon. Ever since the beginning of the 1990’s and his participation in Documenta 11 (2002) in Kassel and at the Venice Biennale (2005 and 2009). His works not only mediate in this sense between cultures or set man and nature in ambivalent relations to each other but are produced in the knowledge that they are social, cultural, or political constructions. His work is deliberately mobile, elusive of pre-established schema, heterogeneous. It is always closely linked to the idea of travel and of coming into contact with what is other to self and is so spontaneous that it almost seems casual. The objects, sculptures, installations, drawings and videos produced by Tayou have a recurrent feature in common: they dwell upon an individual moving through the world and exploring the issue of the global village. And it is in this context that Tayou negotiates his African origins and related expectations.
Collaboration with Campoli Presti Gallery on the production of Nick Mauss Installation for
Christian Bérard, Excentrique Bébé by Chri- stian Bérard at the Nouveau Musée National Monaco.
Nick Mauss (New York, 1980) lives and works in New York. The American/German artist
Nick Mauss has formed his work through a finely tuned sensory register, with drawing at the
centre of a praxis which otherwise eludes all simple categorizations. Expanding the medium
of drawing through multiple registers at the same time, Mauss’ approach to drawing fuses
peripatetically to other possible formats, including sculpture, publications, the format of the
exhibition, and writing.
Creation of garments for Thomias Radin’s performance for the POLY exhibition. A Fluid Show during Berlin Art Week.
Thomias Radin was born in 1993 in Abymes, Guadeloupe. He received his BFA and MFA from the University of Rennes 2 in 2015 and 2018. The artist lives and works in Berlin. Regardless of the medium, Radin’s practice is centered in an embodied knowledge formed by his background in dance as well as by growing up between the Caribbean Island of Guadeloupe and France. For Radin, the Black subjects of his paintings, sculptures, performances, and films are carriers of memory and movement.
