LE DESSIN, CE MESSAGER
from April 20th to May 19th 202418 rue de la Calade — Arles
Festival du dessin Behind the striking graphic spectacle of these drawn works, at first glance so different from one another, lies the sensibility of those who are caught in the mesh of the appearance of things. Sometimes inspired by photography, sometimes by documentary or radically imaginary, these artists invite us to a feast for the eyes and the mind, offering us their unfiltered, unrestrained reappropriation of the world.
Artists Antoine CAPITANI, Jean-Michel JAQUET, Kiki PICASSO, Christian ROUX
Curators Pavel SCHMIDT, Florent BASILETTI
LA REVUE L’AMOUR : A LA GLOIRE DU DESSIN
from April 20th to May 19th 202418 rue de la Calade — Arles
Festival du dessin On October 14, 2021, a new literary and artistic magazine appeared in bookshops: L'Amour. Singular voices - those of writers, essayists, scientists and artists of different generations and nationalities - expressed themselves freely, accompanied by an equal number of new and established illustrators. “Life, art and poetry are crying out for new supporters, says its creator, Frédéric Pajak, in the first editorial. As in an “Auberge espagnole”, they share what they have. That's what L'Amour is all about.” Around a hundred drawings, taken from various issues of the magazine, retrace this bold project.
Curator Francis VOLKEN
