Une certaine scène française: Juliette Agnel, Marco Barbon, Adrien Boyer, Flore and Guillaume Zuili

28 November 2020 - 30 January 2021
Overview
What links the photographs of Juliette Agnel, Marco Barbon, Adrien Boyer, FLORE and Guillaume Zuili? A taste for documentary? A curiosity for history? An interest in the relationship between text and image? Neither a “closed scene”, nor a “school”, our new hanging shows a panorama of the diversity of the photographic writings of the gallery’s French artists. The plastic experimentations around the color of the series ” Présences ” by Adrien Boyer dialogue here with the work on the materiality of the photographic prints by Marco Barbon, FLORE and Guillaume Zuili. The original Polaroids of the series ” Asmara ” by Marco Barbon refer to the pigmentary prints from Polaroids by the photographer FLORE. The last silver “lith” prints of Guillaume Zuili sign the return to France of this naturalized American artist who draws his inspiration from the black novel. Finally, recent images by colorist Adrien Boyer pay tribute to the Polaroids by Luigi Ghirri and the paintings of Giorgio de Chirico. The exhibition “Une certaine scène française” (A Certain French Scene) is not an assessment, but rather an image of an “open photographic scene” that reflects the gallery’s role in promoting French artists.
