Formes Subtiles (Modern Remix) curated by Geraldine Postel and David Magnin at the Galerie Iconoclastes

Dear Shaded Viewers,

FORMES SUBTILES (MODERN REMIX) An exhibition curated by David Magnin & Géraldine Postel 
From a rare and unpublished photographic selection of Gaston Karquel documenting the exhibition FormesUtiles upon the initiative of the Union des Artistes Modernes (UAM) in 1949, the exhibition curatorial duo of Géraldine Postel & David Magnin plays with words and things of the arts and creation, their connections in time and its evolution in aesthetic movements from modernism to contemporaneity.
 
This selection standing as one of the first stilllife series in the history of design, is starting point fromwhich 15 artists are invited to reinterpretremix selected piecesand to integrate these iconic objects in theirrespective aesthetic fields.
 
The photographs are presented in vis-à-vis with the works of each artist, in order to create an unprecedented dialogue. 
Looping between modern photography and new resonances of contemporary art, for this group show, iconic pieces of design pieces from that era will close the circle of this concept. The Gaston Karquel photographs are issued from the David Magnin’s collection.
 
Bianca Argimon has a very funny interpretation of a camping set by Charlotte Perriand :
____________
 
Devon Dikeou wells from her own collection and personal history to loop into the subject,  with shamanic subjects from pre-colombian art, linked to her own childhood teddy bear. 
_________
