At rhinoceros gallery, Galerie Nathalie Obadia presents a group exhibition that brings together emerging and established artists, creating new artistic synergies. In the spaces designed by Jean Nouvel, Seydou Keïta, a photographer and portraitist active in Mali since 1948, captures the vibrancy and modernity of post-colonial African society. His works are displayed alongside those of Laure Prouvost, who presents a collection of pieces—including large-scale tapestries—that act as an archive of visions, capturing the flow of images and texts that inundate us daily.
Romana Londi showcases works from 2024 that reflect her experimental approach to painting, exploring the immediacy of life and merging contrasting realities into hybrid compositions.
With his sculptures, Antoine Renard delves into themes related to the body, youth, and cultural tradition—his David openly references Donatello’s work—while also exploring the sensory and olfactory realms.
Andres Serrano draws from classical aesthetics, transforming the subjects of his photographs into monumental figures through structure and colour.
The effect is further enhanced by his choice of subjects tied to Italy, such as Michelangelo’s Moses from San Pietro in Vincoli, located in Rome.
Joris Van De Moortel, a musician, performer, painter, and sculptor, presents large canvases, watercolors, and tempera works at rhinoceros gallery, dense with literary references ranging from William Blake to L’arbre des batailles, a military law treatise written in the late 14th century for the young King Charles VI of France.
Agnès Varda’s works represent a return to her roots. The filmmaker, a pioneer of the Nouvelle Vague, always complemented her renowned film career with photography, a practice she pursued from a young age. The exhibition features eleven images from the “Patates Coeurs” series, a subject Varda revisited multiple times, considering it “a symbol of a life that constantly renews itself”.
