More Information

Treewhispers is an ongoing international collaboration that celebrates the connection between trees and humanity through handmade paper and artistic exploration. Participants contribute handmade paper rounds with personal memories, poems, images of tree rings, leaves or their beloved trees. These rounds, bound with bookbinding thread, form paper columns and create an ever-evolving forest of paper. As the project travels, it grows with new stories, new voices, and a collective reverence for nature.

Sequenzes

Italy

Event Dates

The exhibition is opened from December 10, 2024 until March 01, 2025.

Artist

Silvia Beltrami Silvia Beltrami

Opening Hours

Location

Habita79
Via Roma, 10
80045 Pompei NA

More Information

HABITA79 MGallery Pompeii concludes the 2024 season with the solo exhibition "Sequenze" by Silvia Beltrami.
The project is directed towards a material study characterized by the fresco tearing technique, a procedure by which a fresco is taken away from its original wall, by removing the pictorial part and the surface plaster and then transferred onto a new support (calicot method from the name of the thin canvas also called "grandmother's rag" which is used to remove the fresco) where the artist subsequently intervenes by applying fragments of coated paper. Sequenze draws inspiration from the current events of our times which, mediated by the mass media, become propaganda, not allowing space for free thought and therefore feeding homogenisation. These works reproduce reality using fragments of reality, interpreting new infinite lives through them, where each fragment has its own history and the more they are, the more they overlap with each other and the more they lose their original identity, quoting the movie by Daniel Kwan and Daniel Scheinert “Everything everywhere all at once”. Silvia Beltrami always places the figure as a point of reference, expressing in this way a poetics whose fulcrum is humanity, a humanity constantly running away from itself and from the others. The exhibition creates a dialogue between collage and fresco, between reality and historical knowledge, between the weight of the past and the fragmentation of the present. The selected works lead us to think about the structure of our collective transitive memory, a legacy of the heritage of Italian art.

More Information

IMPRINT: The Paper and Book Project delves into the foundational and spontaneous aspects of creativity, emphasizing the transformative power of an artist's imprint-both literal and metaphorical. The exhibition offers an intimate view into the genesis of artistic expression, focusing on the physical and conceptual traces left behind in the process of creating. The works featured in this exhibition bear the imprint of the artist's evolving thoughts, revealing the raw, unrefined energy that fuels creativity.

The Concept of IMPRINT:

The title, IMPRINT, speaks to the enduring marks artists leave behind-impressions that are both tangible, in the form of marks on paper, and intangible, as reflections of their inner world. The term reflects the interplay between materiality and memory, acknowledging the physical act of imprinting as central to the creative process. IMPRINT also alludes to the act of recording and preserving fleeting moments of inspiration, transforming raw thoughts into enduring artifacts.

This project explores the profound connections between artists and the tools they use to shape their ideas, celebrating the immediacy and authenticity of their journey. By presenting works that are deeply personal and experimental, IMPRINT honours the essence of the creative spark-the transformative potential of raw materials, evolving concepts, and unfiltered thought.

The Paper Project

Curated by Sharan Apparao, the Paper Project is a celebration of the materiality of paper and its limitless potential as a medium for artistic and structural exploration. This section reawakens a sense of wonder for the often-overlooked material of paper.

Featuring over 180+ artists, IMPRINT: The Paper and Book Project showcases a remarkable diversity of creative voices. On view at the Hindu Lit for Life festival, Lady Andal Venkatasubba Rao School, Chennai, on January 18th and 19th, which will then be moved to Apparao Galleries, Wallace Gardens, Chennai, from January 22nd to February 15th, 2025

Solstice

France

Event Dates

The exhibition is opened from January 25, 2025 until February 12, 2025.

Artist

Christine Cougoule Christine Cougoule

Opening Hours

Monday to Saturday  10:30 am - 5:30 pm

Location

Showroom Chris&Co
12 rue du 4 septembre
30700 Uzès

More Information

In this series, Christine Cougoule explores the subtle balance between light and shadow in minimalist black-and-white works made of paper. These creations, made from plant fibers, embody the complementary relationship between darkness and light, revealing an
interdependence where each force enriches and complements the other.

The texture of the material dialogues with the light, inviting meditative
contemplation. Inspired by the solstice, a symbol of
of renewal and rebirth, this series is a reflection on the
the harmony of opposing forces and the perpetual cycle of transformation.
Duality here becomes a space of balance, where each work celebrates
the passage between light and shadow.

"I create my digital prints using computer-aided techniques, based on photos of my works of paper pulp projections (with acrylic pigments added), either on canvas, wood or Plexiglas, sometimes with black Indian ink projections, and working with white tipex and fine-tipped black indelible felt-tips. For some years now, I've been reworking these prints with collages, before photographing them again and submitting them to software, which I manage." ~ Elisabeth Jobin-Sanglard

More Information

'Paper Parcel Chair' and 'Paper Parcel Table' were acquired by CODA Museum in Apeldoorn and are now exhibited for one year in their standaard collection presentation in their space 'De Verdieping'. 

About the Work: ‘Paper Parcel Chair’ and ‘Paper Parcel Table’ are the first two pieces in the series ‘Paper Parcels from the Past’, made by Emma Sebregts. The collection continues to grow. Every piece represents an object or piece of architecture from the homes in Sebregts’s past. The furniture and walls are things that she has carried with her and exchanged with others in the multiple homelands she has had. The temporality of her stay made her aware that homes and furniture are shared objects in the long term. Collecting the stories of the inhabitants they go through. The table and chair casts where taken from discarded furniture that Sebregts dragged in from the streets to furnish her house in her student times. A favorite way for Sebregts to furnish her house in those days was by reupholstering found furniture, changing the skin but keeping the bones. The skin shed by the furniture correlates with the empty skin displayed by the paper casts.

More Information

Welcome to a short interlude, a moment outside your main mission.
Ring the bell to start.

This body of work is an ode to uncertainty. Within the making process, the artist felt like trying to answer a different question every time, each work leading to more and more questions. The tunnels, the embroidery, the hanging paper works are diaphanous, each one more see-through than the previous, each one an attempt at playing with the very specificity of the solo gallery space’s large windows on one side. These pieces, while separate, thread together in this space and become site-specific attempts at embracing the light and the location. The solo gallery space located at the end - the last step in exploring the gallery, has also inspired the idea of the Side Quest. A short interlude, beyond the main world of the gallery, but also beyond the main mission of the viewers. Side Quest dives into the theme of uncertainty, of playing until finding an answer to questions. Of never really knowing those answers. The game set up for viewers is an attempt to convey this uncertainty, sitting in discomfort and finding joy in the exploration itself. These questions, a play on the academic research question grappled with in Odette's previous body of work, ask things like “how can someone feel this?”, “where do these tunnels lead?” The answers might be entirely obvious, but can also be as obscure as the player wants it to be. In their journey through the space, it is hoped that my players can embrace this obscurity. They can move through the tunnel-like curation which indicates the journey of this state of knowing and not knowing, this fun in-between, the side quest.

GRAZifikation 2024 FREMDE (the / the / that)

It is about the artistic examination of the unfamiliar and the different. The exploration of what the foreign does to us, of being attracted or deterred. Of the longing for the foreign, the respect for it or even the fear. Dealing with foreign cultures is a highly topical subject, especially when they come to us. Conversely, many people like to travel in order to get to know foreign cultures.
With this motto, the @KunstvereinGRAZ invites you to an artistic exploration.
Many thanks to the curators: Renate Christin and Barbara Gaukler
On display is Tanja Major's www.fungi-paper.de Mykobütten Scleroderma.

More Information

Margaret Griffith’s artmaking practice is primarily concerned with the duality and contradictory implications of architectural boundaries found throughout the urban built environment. The artist’s sculptures, installations, and works on paper deconstruct the shapes of physical barriers erected against perceived external threats – wrought-iron residential gates, chain-link fences, metal grates employed in hostile architecture – and re-invents their patterns in materials that betray their inherent fragility.

Responding in part to the isolation and interpersonal suspicion that permeate modern American culture, works comprised of multiple overlapping layers of cut paper sheets emphasize the futility and impermanence of the physical and psychological barriers constructed between people. Their gridded patterns are slightly irregular, creating unexpected interference patterns that provoke a sensation of unease and disorientation. Another group of works, inspired by textile patterns, investigates the role of clothing in obscuring and protecting the body, as well asits capacity to serve as an indicator of wealth, privilege, and status. Perforated sheets of paper are inlaid with painted paper circles to create a unified plane, projecting a pretense of sturdiness and stability onto their porous and delicate forms.

Margaret Griffith received her BFA in painting from Maryland Institute College of Art and her MFA in sculpture from Cranbrook Academy of Art. She has been included in numerous solo and group exhibitions throughout the United States and internationally, and her work has been exhibited at such institutions as the Craft Contemporary, Weatherspoon Art Museum, Long Beach Museum of Art, and Armory Center for the Arts. Her work has been reviewed in Artillery Magazine, ArtScene, and the Los Angeles Times, among others.

More Information

While his brilliant exhibition in Bayreuth Town Hall is being set up, the artist, who lives in Austria, gives us a glimpse of his latest exhibition. His works are explosions of color and appear delicate yet very powerful. At first glance, you are confronted with the complexity of the designs. The works made of paper and cardboard are almost confusing. The works of art cannot be taken in quickly. At the same time, they attract the eye in such a way that you feel invited to linger longer.

More Information

Healthy Materials Lab presents Regeneration of Flax: Linseed, Linen, Shive, & Oil at the Arnold and Sheila Aronson Galleries on 5th Avenue in NYC. The exhibition will display the breadth of applications of products from the flax plant and encourage increased regional development of flax fiber in North America. Through the diversity of innovative designs, historic and current, our goal is to reconnect designers with the lifecycle of their materials. 

Flax has been used for centuries for ropemaking, as a food source, and for textiles. It is a bio-based replacement for petrochemical-based products. The entire flax plant (Linum Usitatissimum) can be utilized, leading to zero-waste, healthier materials for textiles, finishes, paints, insulation and flooring. Through showcasing photography, material samples, written text, diagrams, and artwork, the exhibit will display the flax plant through its life cycle, in various applications, and ultimately its compostability. 

Exhibitors include: DumoLab Research at the University of Pennsylvania, Michelle Wilson, Danielle Burke, Cassie Quinn & More!

Currently, fiber flax is primarily grown in Western Europe. Our exhibition will bring discourse to revitalization efforts of flax for linen textile production in North America. Additionally, the exhibition will highlight and display the use of linseed oil and shive byproducts for the built environment. 

In response to the current climate crisis, our exhibition and related public programming will contribute to the crucial discussion concerning carbon sequestration, regional economies, and the ongoing shift towards healthier, bio-based materials. 

We invite all to attend and register for the opening panel discussion and reception on October 7 at 5pm and invite The New School community to a spinning workshop on October 30 at 3pm.
