“Remember Memory” by Dennis Meyers

This spring and summer, I really enjoyed two exhibitions and a contemporary art fair between the cities of Brussels, Sintra and Lisbon.

Early in the summer, I discovered the monumental exhibition, “Remember Souvenir” by Denis Meyers in the Solvay building, an old office building abandoned in Brussels (above: a selfie with the artist). A declension of infinitive verbs covering walls in a maze of rooms, corridors and cellars of 25000 m².

In the two short videos (below), Denis Meyers summarized the crazy adventure of his monumental exhibition:

“Point of View”

During My Week-end in Cascais,

I took the opportunity to visit the exhibition of contemporary art, Point of View” (do not miss it, until May 2017). The works of ten international artists are scattered in the beautiful Parque do Palácio da Pena in Sintra (listed World Heritage by UNESCO).

Another monumental exhibition that makes you do exercise, because the park is huge! You go up and down non stop. And plan some time, to avoid running from one point to another as I did! In photos above:  the “Cura / Cure” installation by Antonio Bokel.


Photos below: 1, the untitled art work in acacia wood by Bosco Sodi. 2 & 3, I really like this “painting” of Nils-Udo, “Clareira / Clearing” (composed of grass and granite), supposed to remind the Eden Garden. 4 Nespoon, The Big Picture. Looking up, you can see the magnificent Palácio da Pena.

Now Lisbon Has Its Contemporary Art Fair

The fair is not huge, so I could take the time to see everything … on ten centimeter heels (4 inches! LOL, no comment!). You’ve never seen me in an art fair or museum:  I take for hours to see everything! Especially when I am excited by what I discovered.

So here are my favorites of this first edition of ARCOLisboa which included 45 Portuguese and international galleries. Photos above: 1. The fair was held in the Cordoaria Nacional (heritage monument opposite the Tagus). 2, Fantastic square bike: Nicolas Paris, Sala para o erro auta (quadrado), 2015, Galeria Luisa Strina. 3. The skate boards: Nuno da Luz, Bullroarers, 2015, Vera Cortês Art Agency.

“Remember Memory” de Dennis Meyers

Ce printemps-été, j’ai retenu deux expos et une foire d’art contemporain qui m’ont vraiment plu, entre Bruxelles, Lisbonne et Sintra.

Tout début de l’été, j’ai découvert l’exposition monumentale “Remember Souvenir” de Denis Meyers au bâtiment Solvay, immeuble d’anciens bureaux laissé à l’abandon (ci-dessus : un selfie avec l’artiste). Déclinaison de verbes à l’infinitif qui recouvrent les murs dans un dédale de pièces, couloirs et caves de 25000 m².

Dans les deux courtes vidéos ci-dessous, Denis Meyers résume l’aventure un peu folle de cette exposition monumentale :

“Point of View”

Lors d’un week-end à Cascais,

j’en ai profité pour visiter L’exposition d’art contemporain à ne pas manquer, Point of View(jusqu’en Mai 2017). Les oeuvres de 10 artistes internationaux sont disséminées dans le superbe Parque do Palácio da Pena à Sintra (site classé au patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO).

Une autre exposition monumentale et sportive, car le parc est immense : on monte et on descend non stop. Prevoyez du temps, pour éviter de courrir comme je l’ai fait! En photos ci-dessus : l’installation “Cura / Cure” d’Antonio Bokel. 

Photos ci-dessous : 1, l’oeuvre en bois d’acacia et sans titre de Bosco Sodi. 2 & 3, j’aime beaucoup ce “tableau” de Nils Udo, “Clareira / Clearing” (composée d’herbe et de granit), sensé rappeler le jardin d’éden. 4, Nespoon, The Big Picture. D’ailleurs en levant la tête, on peut voir la magnifique Palácio da Pena.

Lisbonne a désormais sa foire d’art contemporain

De taille humaine, j’ai pu prendre le temps de tout voir… perchée sur dix centimètres de talon (LOL, les ampoules!). Vous ne m’avez jamais vu dans une expo ou un musée : ça dure des heures! Surtout lorsque je suis enthousiasmée par ce que je découvre.

Alors voici mes coups de coeur de cette première édition d’ARCOLisboa qui comprenait 45 galleries portugaises et internationales. Photos ci-dessus : 1, la foire a eu lieu dans la Cordoaria Nacional (un monument classé situé face au Tage). 2, le vélo carré de Nicolas Paris, Sala de auta para o erro (quadrado), 2015, Galeria Luisa Strina. 3, les skate boards de Nuno da Luz, Bullroarers, 2015, Vera Cortês Art Agency.
