INVITATION presents eight contemporary European artists, a Danish, a Belgian and six French: Nadia Plesner, David Évrard, Baptiste Debombourg, Thomas Fougeirol, Michel Gouery, David Marin, Jérôme Rappanello, Raphaëlle Ricol.

INVITATION, the exhibition, combines the diversity and complexity of these artists and their practices, ceramic and silver photography, oil and collage, without chronology nor thematic .

All of them have in common a formal research that explores and offers an opening, a particular perception of our contemporary condition.

With various sets of materials, colors, shapes, writing, language, INVITATION is a live poetic journey, a slam.

INVITATION is neither monographic or monochrome.INVITATIONis similar to a conversation both serious and light, surprisingly, unbridled, as an instant edge. INVITATION lead to a reflection on contemporary issues, sometimes hard, without cynicism or casually. INVITATION, even with his works that are ornaments, has a meaning in this city that would different in any other European salon, here it is a little more spicy and agitated.

INVITATION présente huit artistes contemporains européens, une danoise, un belge et six français : Nadia Plesner, David Évrard, Baptiste Debombourg, Thomas Fougeirol, Michel Gouéry, David Marin, Jérôme Rappanello, Raphaëlle Ricol.

L’exposition INVITATION mêle ces artistes et leurs pratiques, aussi diverses que complexes, de la céramique à la photographie argentique, de l’huile au collage, sans chronologie ni thématiques.

Tous ont en commun une recherche formelle qui explore et propose une ouverture, une perception particulière de notre condition contemporaine.

Grâce aux différents jeux de matières, de couleur, de forme, d’écriture, de langage, INVITATION est un parcours poétique vivant, slamé.

INVITATION n’est ni monographique, ni monochrome. INVITATION s’apparente à une conversation à la fois grave et légère, surprenante, débridée, tel un instantané à fleur de peau. INVITATION porte à la réflexion sur des sujets contemporains, parfois difficiles, sans cynisme ni désinvolture. INVITATION, même avec ses œuvres qui sont ornements, a un sens dans cette ville qui serait tout autre dans un salon européen, ici c’est un peu plus épicé et agité.
