…fils de… (les retrouvailles)
Gauthier Hubert
The exhibition is extended until Sunday 31 January! The Museum will be open on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, from 12pm to 6pm – please book your ticket here.
According to the artist, this exhibition is not retrospective, but rather “introspective”. In this journey through time, which brings together a selection of recent paintings, as well as paintings going back some 15 years, Gauthier Hubert presents the relationships that exist between some of these paintings. As in a family tree, as part of his process, he brings together certain works which, on the face of it, seem to have nothing in common, but which would in reality not even exist without the connection between them.
In this second chapter, Gauthier Hubert breaks down the bonds built in his previous exhibition and completely changes its meaning by removing everything which does not relate to people. He moves things around and adds new portraits to complete the related faces already presented in the first part of the exhibition. This portrait gallery allows the artist to paint an entirely different picture, a different genealogy and yet still a family reunion.
