Giuseppe Gabellone

17/01/2009 - 07/03/2009
76, rue de Turenne 75003 Paris


Dans ses recherches sur l'architecture et la m�moire, Giuseppe Gabellone, n� en 1973 � Brindisi (Italie), m�ne depuis une dizaine d'ann�es une oeuvre dont l'objet existe seulement en fonction de sa repr�sentation exclusive. Conjuguant dans un m�me mouvement architecture, sculpture et photographie, Giuseppe Gabellone offre � travers cette trace unique la vision d'un monde fictif, mutant, o� l'homme est singuli�rement absent. Et si r�manence baroque ou surr�aliste il y a, elles ne posent Giuseppe Gabellone qu'en h�ritier de sa propre d�marche. Une d�marche visant � ne jamais percer le myst�re d'une �tranget� aussi famili�re qu'inqui�tante.

There are certain things that we continue seeing even if they no longer exist. As part of his research on architecture and memory, Giuseppe Gabellone, who was born in Brindisi, Italy, in 1973, has been creating works for the past twelve years that exist solely as a result of their exclusivity. Gabellone combines architecture, sculpture and photography and offers a fictional, mutant world in which all human beings are conspicuously absent. There may be throwbacks in his work to the baroque era or surrealism, but Gabellone truly is a maverick in terms of his highly personalized approach�an approach that leaves intact the mystery that is as familiar as it is unsettling.

Michael Sailstorfer
"No light"

17/01/2009 - 07/03/2009
10, impasse Saint Claude 75003 Paris


Les processus de d�constuction et de recontruction, de transformation et de d�placement sont au c�ur du travail de ce jeune artiste allemand. Avec lui, un avion devient une maison, une maison se transforme en divan, une voiture de police devient une batterie. � la fois ludique et narrative, absurde et po�tique, la sculpture selon Michael Sailstofer est un art de la m�tamorphose. Dans ses �uvres r�centes � telles que "Endless Column" (2006), "Time is no Highway � Berlin" (2006), "Musical S" (2008) �, l�artiste utilise des mat�riaux immat�riels comme le son, l��nergie, l�odeur ou la lumi�re : le frottement d�un pneu contre un mur, les vibrations d�un bloc de b�ton � l�int�rieur duquel est plac� un micro sont une mani�re de mettre en �uvre un subtil jeu d�oppositions � entre le visible et le cach�, entre le mat�riel et l�intangible, entre l�espace et le temps � pour r�v�ler l�invisible et le transitoire, interagissant puissamment avec le spectateur. Ces �uvres t�moignent surtout d�une volont� de s�aventurer au-del� des possibilit�s physiques et spatiales de la scultpure et de l�architecture pour explorer leurs propri�t�s ph�nom�nologiques, dynamiques et synesth�siques. � Ce qui m�int�resse, c�est la question de la sculpture, et la mani�re dont une sculpture peut prolif�rer pour finir par utiliser un espace beaucoup plus vaste que celui qu�elle occcupe physiquement. �
Cette ann�e, Michael Sailstofer pr�sentera deux grandes expositions personnelles, � la Schirn Kunsthalle de Francfort et � P.S.1 � New York.

Processes of deconstruction and reconstruction, of transformation and displacement are central to the sculptural works of this young German artist. With him, a plane becomes a house, a house turns into a sofa, a police van becomes a drum kit. Both playful and narrative, absurd and poetical, sculpture according to Michael Sailstofer is an art of metamorphosis. In his recent works � "Endless Column" (2006) or "Time is no Highway � Berlin (2006)", "Musical S" (2008) �, the artist uses untangible materials such as sound, energy, smell or light: the rubbing of a tire against a wall, the vibrations of a cube of concrete in which a microphone has been placed, are a way of bringing subtle oppositions into play � visible/invisible, material/immaterial, space/time � to unveil the invisible and the transient, powerfully interacting with the viewer. Above all, these works display an attempt at venturing towards the physical and spatial possibilies of sculpture and architecture to explore their phenomenological, dynamic and synesthesic
� I�m really interested in what sculpture can be and how a sculpture can spread out and use much more space than it physically has. �
In 2008, Michael Sailstorfer has forthcoming solo exhibitions at the Schirn Kunsthalle, Frankfurt, and at P.S.1, New York




Jos� Levy
"Oasis: LucoNoctambule"

17/01/2009 - 07/03/2009
76, rue de Turenne 75003 Paris


Jos� L�vy a �t� d'abord styliste de mode. En totale rupture avec les codes de l'�poque, qui exaltent les valeurs des ann�es quatre vingt, ses collections s'inspiraient de Tati, Modiano ou Jacques Demy et lui ont assur� une reconnaissance internationale. En 13 ans, il impose ainsi son univers sur la sc�ne de la mode masculine avec sa maison, Jos� L�vy � Paris, et s'affirme � la fois comme un coloriste hors pair et un tailleur au regard pr�cis. Dans le m�me temps, il encha�ne des collaborations ext�rieures marquantes en dirigeant le style de Holland & Holland, Nina Ricci, Cacharel et Emanuel Ungaro. D�sireux de s'adresser au plus grand nombre, il signe �galement des collaborations avec Monoprix, La Redoute ou Andr�. Cr�ateur libre et curieux, �clectique et pr�cis, il a toujours illustr� son regard tr�s personnel en collaborant depuis le d�but de sa carri�re avec de nombreux artistes (photographes et plasticiens tels que Jack Pierson, Gotscho et Nan Goldin, Philippe Parenno, Jean Pierre Khazem, les Kolkoz; architecte comme Xavier Gonzales, ou musiciens � l'image de Jay Jay Johanson, Benjamin Biolay,...)
Depuis 2007, il se consacre d�sormais totalement � ce travail de cr�ation transversale, des arts plastiques et des arts d�coratifs. Le Mus�e des arts d�coratifs au 107, rue de Rivoli, vient de l'inviter � exposer dans ses vitrines la collection d'objets en porcelaine dessin�e pour Deshouli�res, il pr�pare les costumes et le mobilier pour la pi�ce "Ordet" mise en sc�ne par Arthur Nauziciel et pr�sent�e au festival d'Avignon. Il travaille aussi avec la Manufacture de S�vres et sur plusieurs projets aussi vari�s qu'une pharmacie, du linge de lit, de la vaisselle,...
En exprimant son univers, il joue sur les notions de familiarit�, d'intime, d'�trange ou de th��tralit� souvent piqu�es d'ironie. Il aime � plonger les souvenirs, les traces du pass�, les arch�types, les racines des Maisons qu'il rencontre pour en jouer et y poser un regard respectueux mais libre et distanci� - m�l� d'hybridations, de mutations et d'accouplements subversifs, grin�ants et na�fs � la fois .

Jos� L�vy first started as a fashion designer. In complete breach with the codes of the time, since he favored the style of the 80s, his collections were inspired by Jacques Tati, Patrick Modiano or Jacques Demy; this unique approach catapulted him into international recognition. For 13 years, he imposed his own world onto the universe of men's fashion world with his own brand Jos� L�vy � Paris. He established himself as an outstanding colourist and an extremely precise taylor. At the same time, he collaborated with other important brands by managing the style of Holland and Holland, Nina Ricci, Cacharel and Emanuel Ungaro. Eager to reach a larger audience, he also joined larger labels like Monoprix, La Redoute or Andr�. Eclectic, accurate, curious and a free creator, Jos� L�vy always illustrated his very personal style by collaborating with numerous artists since the beginning of his career: photographers and visual artists like Jack Pierson, Gotscho and Nan Goldin, Philippe Parreno, Jean-Pierre Khazem or Kolkoz; architect like Xavier Gonzales, or musicians like Jay Jay Johnson , Benjamin Biolay,�).
Since 2007, he has focused on some projects related to the visual and applied art. The Mus�e des Arts D�coratifs in Paris, located at 107, rue de Rivoli, has just invited him to work on the displays of the windows by exhibiting the collection of porcelain objects drawn for Deshouli�res. He is preparing the costumes and furniture for the set of the play "Ordet" directed by Arthur Nauziciel, which will be presented at the upcoming Festival of Avignon. He is also working with the Manufacture de S�vres and on several other projects as extensive as a pharmacy, bed ensembles, or dinnerware,...
By expressing his own universe, he plays with the notions of acquaintance, privacy, strangeness or theatricality with some irony. He likes to jump into memories, traces of the past, archetypes, roots of the Houses he meets in order to play and to give a respectful, distanced and free look - mixed with hybridizations, mutations, as well as subversive, squeaky and naive mating
