"The one week only"

 

Lorsqu’un thème commun lie la céramique à la sérigraphie,…

cela donne naissance à une exposition aussi percutante que pertinente.

Entre esthétisme et réflexion intellectuelle la céramiste Safia Hijos vous laisse le choix, ironique ou lyrique?

Entre fantasme et récit la sérigraphiste Alix Le Grouyellec témoigne d'un Japon dévasté.

 

Exposition du 17/12/13 au 24/12/13
Heure d’ouverture du mardi au samedi de 14H00 à 18H00
Vernissage en présence des artistes le 17/12/13 de 18H00 à 20H00

SHOZO MICHIKAWA 6-28 November Erskine, Hall & Coe is pleased to present a new exhibition by esteemed artist Shozo Michikawa comprising of 40 new works, demonstrating his ingenuity, dexterity and mastery of clay. The exhibition will be installed by Shozo Michikawa, and will include an Ikebana arrangement that will be composed by Ikebana master, Koho Wada. - - - Each one of these pots is a marriage of the material worked by Shozo Michikawa, and then shaped, coloured, twisted, sliced and pierced. Some have height and others stay earthborn. Some are touching, carrying an emotion, or attracting the hand and eye, and so asking to be lifted and closely viewed. Here time present and time past, have come together. An inheritance is clear, but so is freshness of the new. The East has come to the West – a  most serendipitous union. Nature is the source of Michikawa’s pots. As is natural he takes what is at hand, reworks it and creates a new generation. On show, are the children and grandchildren of his previous works. Here is the familiar, enlivened by his fresh inventions, his dancing wit and his deep reverence for the past. The colours, warmth-in-tone, seem placed without serious premeditation. And yet we know, they are as the potter decreed, subject always to nature herself. Michikawa claims little credit for himself. He finds inspiration without searching, as surely as the sun rises. Angus Stewart - - - Gallery opening hours during the exhibition: 10am-6pm, Monday to Saturday - - - Erskine, Hall & Coe Ltd, 15 Royal Arcade, 28 Old Bond Street, London W1S 4SP +44 (0) 20 7491 1706 | mail@erskinehallcoe.com | www.erskinehallcoe.com You have received this email as a result of signing up to the Erskine, Hall & Coe mailing list.

Adrian Villar Rojas at the Serpentine Gallery

Great show by Adrian Villar Rojas at The Serpentine London. Huge clay sculptures crackes before before our eyes.

"Kurt Cobain, kissing kittens and tray upon tray of apples ... artist Adrián Villar Rojas wants to recreate the whole world in clay – then watch it crumble before his eyes. Ahead of his forthcoming show, the first in the Serpentine's new Sackler Gallery, we get exclusive access to his workshop"
(The Guardian)
http://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/gallery/2013/sep/19/adrian-villar-rojas-planet-clay-exhibition#/?picture=417650068&index=1

The new Serpentine Sackler Gallery opens with an extraordinary site-specific installation by the young Argentinian artist Adrián Villar Rojas, in which the space has been re-imagined as a fossilised world of ruins and ancient monuments
From a sculpture of a mummified Kurt Cobain to a crumbling elephant, 33 year-old Villar Rojas combines pop culture, science fiction and quantum mechanics with the natural world to create a contemporary Pompeii. Fabricated almost entirely out of mud, clay and brick, this grey and dusty vision of the future offers a fantastical comment on the fragility of the world’s ecology.
