Résonance events

During this last evening of the exhibition of the works of JM Braizat, a performative moment will take place in the garden of the Workshops at 46. The artist invites the assembly to share with him an affusion. Fragile water gives resistance to nature, to man, to life.

"We question the sensitive and the transience of existence (material trace in clay and photos on tree leaves). Seize the present to stem the future as it is announced."
A duo exhibition by two residents of Gamut, presented in the underground galleries of the Bastion Saint-Just.

Exhibition of engravings, drawings and installations by artists Damien Deroubaix and Yannick Vey.

Opening on Sunday September 25, 2022 at 12 p.m.

Mory and Ria are artists who come from two very different backgrounds, worlds and countries: Burkina Faso and the United States. Despite their differences in culture, philosophy and identity, during the Jardin sauvage exhibition, the artists work together to play with and treat a fundamental thing that binds us all: the vegetal world. The reason Mory and Ria wanted to focus on plant-life is because they find that its power is too often and simply forgotten. Through their expressionistic and variable approaches to painting, which sometimes include the addition of black light, Mory and Ria illuminate another way of seeing reality in the living greenery that surrounds us. Together, their paintings and their art weave an inexhaustible story of what it means to be wild in a world that is increasingly under a controlling human hand. To also find the wildness that is in each of us is an inner exploration, a manifesto of the fragility of the spirit. Mory and Ria try not to define their art too closely to avoid empowering limiting categorizations. The Jardin Sauvage painting exhibition is an ode to freedom, to love and to nature.

The garden of the Bastion de Saint Just is a space marked physically through history and the passing of elements, a space drawn by the life that takes place within it.
In this meeting space between the vegetal, the mineral and the living, the exhibition "Attentions plurielles" invites one to come and explore the tension that is created between a set of works and its environment.
Stretching this tension to give it flexibility, testing its resistance, revealing our weaknesses.
This is perhaps what connects most the works of the collaborating artists of the exhibition : their ability to pinpoint the place where it can hurt, the one that needs our attention, to reveal that what seemed like weakness may hide a completely different reality.

For two weeks, the place is transformed into a sculptural skate-park or an installation of sculptures to skate and dance.

In its scenographic approach, with the complicity of Galerie Slika, Poliform Lyon by RBC, explores here the characteristics of the artists by appropriating their work, playing with their representations in order to seize another dimension.
In a decor both sober and motionless, the 3 artists exposed offer a visual narrative where the works and the place come to life to form a scene with sometimes contemporary, sometimes upcycled influences, always with a touch of humor and casualness.
The dialogue between the powerful and dissonant works of each of the invited artists and the unique character of the place, underline with force their respective aesthetic singularity.
A step aside for the single-brand showroom Poliform Lyon, which proposes a new way to explore contemporary art, both friendly and offbeat.
The works, specifically designed for the Poliform Lyon showroom, will be sold exclusively during the exhibition.

The installation aims to show the fragility of an idea before it becomes a tangible design product.
From the thought, to the first sketch, to the development process, to the final product. An idea/concept can quickly get lost along the way. Once an idea begins to move through the various stages, it's a matter of making sure the "design intent" doesn't get lost.
"Very few ideas are turned into reality, most don't even make it to the sketch phase!"says Alain Gilles.
Bleached furniture has its sketches superimposed, turning them into what appear to be fragile, surreal pieces defined by only a few lines.
Above the furniture pieces, the components float in the air as a symbol of the thought process and the birth of those first fragile and ill-defined concepts.
As a symbol of the different sources of personal and external inspirations that give birth to a concept. The backdrop represents the sheet of paper that floats in the air to finally merge into the white pedestal. Fragility and lightness melt into the solidity of the base to become a tangible reality.
This backdrop and the base symbolize the process of transforming an idea into a material reality.The function of the white backdrop is also to isolate the piece from the rest of the space and to create a kind of space within the space, as if one were inside the mind, between dream and reality.

Even the city makes fun of me is an exhibition project bringing together nine young artists who graduated from ENSBA Lyon in 2021. This exhibition is marked by our first months as young artists, with nine different readings of what "even the city makes fun of me" can mean. The title is a phrase taken from a poem by Betty Camaly, an artist participating in the exhibition.

In line with a long tradition and active policy of support to professional artistic training, each year the Ècole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts of Lyon confers a number of awards and exceptional aid packages, specific to the school, to the most talented of its graduates. The Prix Hélène Linossier is one of them.
