Anna Weyant Biography
Born in 1995 in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, she is one of the most talented artists of her generation - Thanks to Larry Gagosian, great talent discoverer she is taking an important place among the great creators of our time. Lives and works in New York, NY. - https://gagosian.com/ About Anna Weyant The hapless subjects of Anna Weyant’s indelible paintings and drawings are recurrently tested by everyday circumstances, weathering what the artist has described as “low-stakes trauma.” In these precisely rendered scenes, figures—most often young and female—find themselves embroiled in tragicomic narratives with an ironic twinge, offering a dreamlike insight into the capacity of popular culture and social convention to manufacture and distort gestures, rituals, and signifiers of femininity. But far from presenting her protagonists as merely symbolic, Weyant remains sensitive to their human idiosyncrasies and contradictions, picturing characters who are endearing, mysterious, and wholly themselves. In her crystalline still-life compositions, meanwhile, everyday objects adopt an uncanny, portentous air. Weyant was born in Calgary, Canada, in 1995. After earning a BFA in painting from the Rhode Island School of Design, she relocated to New York, then studied painting at the China Academy of Art in Hangzhou. Moving back to New York, she worked as a studio assistant while pursuing her own practice. Among her first exhibited works is a sequence of darkly cinematic canvases depicting a dollhouse—modeled after one that she owned as a child—and its young female inhabitants. A later series deconstructs the appearance of American suburbia in Lifetime’s made-for-television movies, casting it as a surreal realm in which violence and disaster lurk just beneath the surface. In her still lifes, Weyant depicts fruit, flowers, and other items in a similarly unsettling light; Lily (2021), for example, juxtaposes the titular bloom with a revolver bound in gold ribbon. In these and other works, Weyant employs a somber, muted palette of deep greens, dusty pinks, and deep black. She also draws on art historical and present-day influences, from seventeenth-century Dutch masters such as Frans Hals and Judith Leyster to twentieth-century mavericks like Balthus to contemporary painters Jennifer Packer and Ellen Berkenblit. As revealed in her contributions to group exhibitions including and I will wear you in my heart of heart at FLAG Art Foundation, New York (2021); Artists Inspired by Music: Interscope Reimagined at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (2022); and Women of Now: Dialogues of Memory, Place & Identity at the Green Family Art Foundation, Dallas (2022), Weyant displays a deep understanding and appreciation of her work’s roots and parallels while eliciting an immediate and emotional response. |

A LA MAISON GUERLAIN AU 68 CHAMPS ELYSÉES PARIS EXPOSITION LES FLEURS DU MAL
Guerlain présente sa nouvelle exposition Les Fleurs du Mal, une ode à l’œuvre de Charles Baudelaire. Cet événement artistique qui réunit plus de 25 artistes internationaux -émergents et figures majeures de la scène actuelle- se déroulera à la Maison Guerlain, située au 68 Champs-Élysées, du 18 octobre au 13 novembre 2023. Les fleurs, symboles éternels de la beauté et de la sensibilité, montrent ici des ambiguïtés subtiles. Manifestations poétiques d’une sensualité éthérée, messagères de la nature, de l'art et des émotions humaines, elles révèlent aussi des aspects maléfiques. Chaque création exposée par la Maison Guerlain explore les frontières fragiles de l'existence et invite à une introspection profonde sur la dualité de la vie et de la mort, du spleen et de l'idéal, dans une quête de transcendance. Chaque artiste, dans une résonance subtile avec le thème, explore cette richesse de significations à travers une pluralité de médiums artistiques. Certaines créations sont inédites et sont produites spécialement pour cette occasion. Avec cette 16ème édition depuis le lancement de ses expositions d’art contemporain avenue des Champs-Elysées, Guerlain explore une nouvelle fois les liens entre nature et création artistique, fondements de son engagement. |
TATE ST IVES EXHIBITION THE CASABLANCA ART SCHOOL
Mohamed Melehi Untitled 1983 © Mohamed Melehi Estate |
UNTIL 14 JANUARY 2024 A major exhibition about the artists of the renowned Casablanca Art School Tate St Ives will be the first museum in the UK to explore the intense period of artistic rebirth that followed Morocco’s independence, forged by the experimental teaching methods of the Casablanca Art School in the 1960s and 1970s. Led by Farid Belkahia alongside Mohammed Chabâa, Mohamed Melehi and others, this pioneering school paved the way for a new generation of socially engaged modern artists who formed an influential avant-garde network. Works by 22 artists will be brought together to demonstrate the wide variety of the Moroccan ‘new wave’, from vibrant abstract paintings and urban murals to applied arts, typography, graphics and interior design. The exhibition will also include a selection of rarely-seen print archives, vintage journals, documentary photographs and films. This exhibition is a collaboration between Tate St Ives and Sharjah Art Foundation, where it will open in February 2024. It is also part of a key moment of international research into the Casablanca Art School, which includes a collaborative project initiated in 2020 between KW Institute for Contemporary Art and Sharjah Art Foundation, in partnership with Goethe-Institut Marokko, ThinkArt and Zamân Books & Curating.

LEILA HELLER GALLERY LA LA LAND by Naeemeh Kazemi
LA LA LAND by Naeemeh Kazemi September 7th to October 11th 2023 LEILA HELLER GALLERY http://www.leilahellergallery.com/ |
Naeemeh Kazemi Untitled (From the La La Land Series), 2022 59.1 x 78.7 in (150 x 200 cm) Oil on canvas |
New York, NY – Leila Heller Gallery is pleased to announce artist Naeemeh Kazemi's solo show 'La La Land' opening on September 7, 2023. Predominately a sculptor, Naeemeh Kazemi began painting in 2020 when the lockdown started since she could not get to her studio. She worked on these magical canvases in her one bedroom apartment in Iran, which helped her escape the confinement of quarantine and transported her to fantastical places. Living in Iran, Kazemi has had to take creative approaches to her meanings through symbols, so as to not get in trouble with the Iranian government. Her themes of environmental and virus anxiety, feminism, and humanity are disguised in her enchanting paintings through tokens and motifs of the natural world, classical paintings, and quotidian objects. In her most recent "La La Land" series, she depicts a world that is intertwined yet fragmented. It is as if familiar pieces float strangely in space. In her complex yet highly composed paintings, Kazemi ponders the questions "Could the whole history of the world be a mere misunderstanding?" and "Is it possible that man, with all his discoveries, developments, culture, religion, and global wisdom is just lingering on only to the outward of life?" This series reflects Kazemi's feelings and anxieties towards the world, exacerbated by the Covid pandemic quarantine instated since March 2020. She says, "I'm incredibly scared because I know we will soon annihilate this enlivening life- giving planet. A planet that soon gets a shell from skulls, bones, and dead machines. No one can do anything for her. We lost the game!" Kazemi creates an oasis sheltered from these fears in this series. A "La La Land," clearly fictitious, but serving as a safe haven from the uncertain world.

Faut-il qu'une œuvre soit chère pour l'aimer ?
Nous ouvrons ici un des débats les plus difficiles du monde de l'art : Qu'est-ce qui fait le prix d'une oeuvre d'art, le fantasme, la réputation, la communication, la financiarisation, le prix élevé pratiqué par le marché dont les ventes aux enchères ou bien la qualité de la création, l'imagination, la sensibilité que nous transmet une oeuvre - Afin de vous permettre de réfléchir, je vous rappelle un principe essentiel qui doit animer votre réflection : ce que l'on nomme LA THESE , L'ANTITHESE qui doit conduire à LA SYNTHESE - J'ai sélectionné les 2 dessins ci-dessous afin d'illustrer ce propos. Posez-vous la question au plus profond de vous-même. Lequel de ces 2 dessins préférez-vous indépendamment du prix du marché. "Regarder et aimer avant d'acheter ..." comme nous le rappelle Martine Manfré Itzinger Nous avons publié dans LIRE LA SUITE vos points de vue, vos réactions sur ce sujet que vous voudrez bien nous adresser par mail. Merci pour leurs textes à Martine Manfré Itzinger et Hervé Le Goareguer. |

I do not want to make negative pictures about people, and so I do everything I can to help make them feel comfortable in front of the camera.

And that’s the simple answer to getting a good picture. » Douglas KIRKLAND Douglas KIRKLAND découvre la photographie au contact de ses parents, tous deux passionnés. Enfant, il s’évade à travers les images du magazine Life et affute son regard en parcourant les clichés qui peuplent ses pages.
