Le « Salon » bénéficie d’une longue histoire dans l’art occidental. De ses débuts à Paris en 1667 à l’art contemporain et aux collectifs de danse/performance  à New-York, le concept a été adopté et s’est transformé, passant des maisons d’élites à la rue. Bien qu’il ait pris différentes voies ensuite, un élément reste caractéristique, l’artiste, actif et accessible, participant  et échangeant avec ses amis et le public dans une configuration intime. La série de LAB BAL BAL du CCN – Ballet de Lorraine propose justement ce type d’événements !

Avec: Gilbert1 – artiste plasticien, Etienne C – musicien, Unzip – DJ et les danseurs du CCN – Ballet de Lorraine, en partenariat avec l’association le MUR Nancy.

The “Salon” has enjoyed a long history in western art. From its beginnings in Paris in 1667 to contemporary art and dance/performance collectives in New York, the concept has been adopted and transformed passing the elitist’s maison to the street. Though it has taken many different paths, there is one defining element, the active/participating/accessible artist exchanging with friends and public in an intimate setting. The CCN Ballet de Lorraine’s LAB BLA BAL series proposes just such an event. Artist Gilbert1 (Association Le Mur), musician Etienne C, DJ Unzip, and the dancers of the CCN – Ballet de Lorraine invite you in the making of a spontaneous event!

With: Gilbert1 – visual artist, Etienne C – musician, Unzip – DJ and dancers of CCN – Ballet de Lorraine, in collaboration with le MUR Nancy.

Gilbert1 “Falling to pieces”

Solo exhibition at Punto618 Art Gallery (Turin, Italy)

From 13th December 2015 to 17th January 2016

15.12.15 Venaria Reale (TO), Italy –  The exhibition, opened on Sunday 13^th December, will be open until 17th January at Punto618 Art Gallery in Via Cesare Battisti 2 in Venaria.

Gilbert1, coming from graffiti culture, is a visual French artist working in the streets and in abandoned places as much as in his studio. Having devoted himself to calligraphy and typography for a long time, he now expresses himself through abstract and unstructured figures which represents tracks of a decadent society, using different techniques such as painting, screenprint, sculpture, installation, video. He has developed an apparently chaotic universe, raw and authentic, dynamic and powerful, related to a search for movement, and some deformation of space, which symbolizes a kind of emergency.

The Gilbert1’s work usually represents the falling of abstract and geometric destructured elements, as a metaphor of the human who falls and decomposes in the surrounding society. The materials composing the volume works are often broken and used by their own history, giving an image of a moving and evolving body composed by elements suddenly exploding in a falling scene.

The title “Falling to pieces” is representative of this particular view he has adopted in his  artistical approach. The exhibition presents a new body of different medium works, as black and white drawings, paintings on canvas and on found wood materials, and some volume assemblages.

Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday 3.30 pm -7.30 pm

Friday 10.30 am -12.30 am / 3.30 pm -7.30 pm
