Sebastian Cifuentes at ‘Art en Capital’ from 4 to 8 December 2013 at the Grand Palais, Paris

The major exhibition at the Grand Palais ‘Art en Capital’ has been mounted for the first time in 2006. It displays artists from different backgrounds, affirmed and new to the art scene, who form an event which has a connecting quality by means of joined forces. ‘Art en Capital’ attracts every year within only 4 days more than 35’000 visitors.

The following work has been created by Sebastian Cifuentes, one of the artists shown on this platform. It is a monumental installation constructed out of various separate wooden sculptures melting to a cabinet of curiosities in a certain way, constituted of peculiarities, and monstrosities, of the human being as well as of fantastic creatures related to vital organs. The single pieces symbolize in many ways a confrontation with death and the material and finite nature of our bodies. The handicraft of Cifuentes is most impressive, and in combination with this specific arrangement and topic, can be interpreted as a  bridge to late Renaissance and Mannerism.

Raymond Depardon, ‘Un moment si doux’, Grand Palais, Paris, from 14 November 2013 to 10 February 2014

The exhibition features color photographs by Raymond Depardon, one of the renown Magnum Photographers, from his beginnings until today. For this exhibition, the artist travelled to Africa, the USA, and to South America in order to take pictures of motifs which are dear and precious to him: Big spaces and the solicitude of the cities. Most of the 150 pictures have not been published so far. This is the most important exhibition so far in terms of Depardon’s work in color.
