One of the central tenets of Heinzmann’s work lies in revisiting painting’s Western tradition with both of its prime historical momentums in view: painting as the superior medium for showing the world; and, after it had achieved its momentous triumph in retreating to its own means, painting as the field for a powerful interaction of form, color, texture, surface, after the rupture of abstraction. Heinzmann’s work revisits this epochal break and harnesses it into a dichotomy that his art elegantly puts into play.  His works with pigment, for example, display that powdery dust, they exhibit it in its material concreteness, as one of the many specimens of matter that make up our world; but they also transform it into chromatic fields, exploring its wide yet subtle palette, letting color perform as it should after it has been freed of the burdens of representation.<a href="https://www.perrotin.com/artiste-Thilo_Heinzmann-151.html"> (text taken from here)</a> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCAmJ70inKrj-vxDL2xZEQdiuw0d6QPuuFerMVAoPpcJs2yACGGMTfW0Wl5SyVTa-7cuQ9a7p8ZHVZN8N9Pvh8oSZLBxiI-b4DIdYaj6jTqLWJW0J2XaB0mhmaE7dPPwzOcH0iE00sDPzD/s1600/YHBHS2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="570" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCAmJ70inKrj-vxDL2xZEQdiuw0d6QPuuFerMVAoPpcJs2yACGGMTfW0Wl5SyVTa-7cuQ9a7p8ZHVZN8N9Pvh8oSZLBxiI-b4DIdYaj6jTqLWJW0J2XaB0mhmaE7dPPwzOcH0iE00sDPzD/s1600/YHBHS2.JPG" width="640" /></a></div> <div style="text-align: center;">----------------</div>

I don't pretend to have a religious art, but I have to say, it is artists who worked that territory from the very beginning." —James Turrell, 1999   “CLEAR” brings together works by twenty-three contemporary artists exploring subjects reflective, transitory, crystalline, or celestial by traversing concepts of clarity sourced from art history, science, and esotericism.  The late 1960s saw the emergence of the California Light and Space Movement, tangential to Minimalism, with protagonists such as James Turrell, Larry Bell, and De Wain Valentine. They created works predicated on the extrasensory potential of light by using the space within and around it as an immersive frame, heightening the viewer’s awareness of the mind-body experience. “CLEAR” imagines a continuation of this narrative, suggesting astral projection—leaving one’s physical body to inhabit an “astral” one—as an endgame. The exhibition explores apertures both material and conceptual, as well as the rich sensibilities that visualize the science and fantasy of aesthetic experience and popular imagination. <a href="http://www.gagosian.com/exhibitions/clear--july-25-2014/exhibition-images">via Gagosian</a> <div style="text-align: center;">---------</div>

Olafur Eliasson Riverbed 20.8.2014 - 4.1.2015 "Olafur Eliasson's take on Louisiana is radical, fascinating and unique. The central work in the first solo exhibition at the museum by the Danish-Icelandic artist is a huge, sitespecific project that reverses the relation between nature and art.  The transitions between inside and outside, culture and staged nature, become fluid and transitory – and the progress of the visitor through the museum becomes a central issue. Eliasson’s exhibition is an enhancement of our gaze at the museum, at ourselves and at the world.  Olafur Eliasson's exhibition at Louisiana engages with the museum’s unique identity. The exhibition consists of three sections that each thematize the encounter between Eliasson’s art and Louisiana as a place. The central work, Riverbed (2014), is based on the unique connection between nature, architecture and art that characterizes the museum. Transforming the entire South Wing into a rocky landscape, Eliasson focuses on inhabiting space in a new way and inserts new patterns of movement into the museum.<a href="http://en.louisiana.dk/exhibition/olafur-eliasson"> (via here)</a> 2. Staircase image, source currently unknown. 3. YOU by Urs Fisher :"Urs Fischer has reduced Gavin Brown’s Enterprise to a hole in the ground, and it is one of the most splendid things to have happened in a New York gallery in a while. Experientially rich, buzzing with energy and entropy, crammed with chaos and contradiction, and topped off with the saga of subversion that is central both to the history of the empty-gallery-as-a-work-of-art but also to the Gavin Brown experience itself, this work is brimming with meaning and mojo. It was also a Herculean project. In a very minimalist yet surreal and expressionistic way, You makes space palpable. Initially the chasm dominates your vision and takes over the room, like Magritte’s painting of a giant green apple filling space. As your vision adjusts, your inner ear goes into high gear as you realize that while standing at floor level you’re no longer at the base of the gallery but halfway up the walls. The room transforms into something unmoored, like a Tiepolo or Correggio painting. As you survey everything from this unfamiliar perch, your eye takes over and details come into focus. This I-can-see-everything realism echoes the experience of paintings by Ingres and David.  " <a href="http://nymag.com/arts/art/reviews/41266/">via here, in 2007. </a> <a href="http://martijnwinkler.nl/post/36216221800/you-by-urs-fischer-from-new-york-magazine-in">image via here.</a> <div style="text-align: center;">------------</div>

Hélène Binet – Looking at Historic Architecture "The light and shadow of the observatory in Jaipur is telling us the time, the seasons, predicting the monsoon but also positioning the human being in relation to very big dimension. The light and the shadow as a tool to understand the world. In the Couvent Sainte-Marie de la Tourette, light and shadow are the path to the liturgies and the only ornament in the cell of the father. They are collected in a little box, maybe a place to catch dreams.”  <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0YdFeYe50_yvFDhUqCRQTCY0vzjhrTXmlDMyfw2aYIxK1Vsj-_wSVBjrZI7pA_aMHxcmfhIWp-VlOV3v1hATkgds2a-RIWp7d749KZg2VeZvDJGXBlr6pYxOxv46oLRA7L3mcaYlwraSc/s1600/Binet+Corbusier+Couvent+Ste+Marie.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0YdFeYe50_yvFDhUqCRQTCY0vzjhrTXmlDMyfw2aYIxK1Vsj-_wSVBjrZI7pA_aMHxcmfhIWp-VlOV3v1hATkgds2a-RIWp7d749KZg2VeZvDJGXBlr6pYxOxv46oLRA7L3mcaYlwraSc/s1600/Binet+Corbusier+Couvent+Ste+Marie.jpg" /> </a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div>Hélène Binet – Looking at Historic Architecture September 5 till November 6, 2014  <a href="http://ammann-gallery.com/">Gallery Gabrielle Ammann </a>will present a solo exhibition of selected works of the internationally renowned photographer Hélène Binet. Acclaimed for her depictions of contemporary architecture, Hélène Binet is equally intrigued in historical structures and has photographed important buildings from all over the world. The astronomical observatory Jantar Mantar in Jaipur, India is remarkable not only for its historic and scientific importance but also because it was influential to Le Corbusier and his later work. Built between 1724 and 1734 by Maharaja Jai Singh II, each structure at Jantar Mantar is an architectural astronomical instrument. The site is a surreal mélange of edifices designed in accordance with astronomical aspects using shadow and light for measurement. Binet’s photographs capture the dreamlike quality of the structures as well as highlights the significant use of shadow and light in order to develop the architectural landscape of the site. <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"> </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> </div> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9V5yBjOWm5nVI1ImF9zbIKXsXXTa1ana8IjiPwuw-LkkUipsvkOufbh1-YHgjrGppjeAtYtrwzo9oKiD7W7aDq5uTURXSDhUrCPAYthyphenhyphensrfTCBBMvd1jK1BszB19naTS-ZJMyQLiWJVGV/s1600/Binet+Couvent+Sainte-Marie+de+la+Tourette+by+Le+Corbusier+Eveux+France.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9V5yBjOWm5nVI1ImF9zbIKXsXXTa1ana8IjiPwuw-LkkUipsvkOufbh1-YHgjrGppjeAtYtrwzo9oKiD7W7aDq5uTURXSDhUrCPAYthyphenhyphensrfTCBBMvd1jK1BszB19naTS-ZJMyQLiWJVGV/s1600/Binet+Couvent+Sainte-Marie+de+la+Tourette+by+Le+Corbusier+Eveux+France.jpg" /></a></div> As Binet recounts from her visit: “The light and shadow of the observatory in Jaipur is telling us the time, the seasons, predicting the monsoon but also positioning the human being in relation to very big dimension. The light and the shadow as a tool to understand the world. In the Couvent Sainte-Marie de la Tourette, light and shadow are the path to the liturgies and the only ornament in the cell of the father. They are collected in a little box, maybe a place to catch dreams.” <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjb7-Fv9HiY5paiiEDkdbpnRgU-DhJ-AhANU5r2U6VyOUZTIz2BF94lcdzTQOptl7gKoldgoGlnqPAofLge1fweTJbZrlLp_0llU4UstjIQPzxjVr8FB4fpfx2Y0cPkGbu5nkZoN2d_Y45_/s1600/Binet+Jantar+Mantar+Observatory+Jaipur+India+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjb7-Fv9HiY5paiiEDkdbpnRgU-DhJ-AhANU5r2U6VyOUZTIz2BF94lcdzTQOptl7gKoldgoGlnqPAofLge1fweTJbZrlLp_0llU4UstjIQPzxjVr8FB4fpfx2Y0cPkGbu5nkZoN2d_Y45_/s1600/Binet+Jantar+Mantar+Observatory+Jaipur+India+2.jpg" /></a></div> The inspiration of the simplicity of forms and the play of light and shadow at Jantar Mantar is evident in Le Corbusier’s work at Chandigarh and his sacral buildings. Considered masterpieces of modern architecture, Le Corbusier’s sacred structures are the Sanctuary of Notre-Dame-du-Haut at Ronchamp (1954), the Dominican Monastery of Sainte-Marie de la Tourette (1960) and the posthumously completed Church of Saint-Pierre in Firminy-Vert (2007). Light takes a key position in Le Corbusier´s buildings, it is also the central point in Binet´s graphically arranged compositions. She reveals the spirit of the spaces through light, shadow and texture. Her photographs evoke the sculptural quality of the spaces through the contrast between curved and straight surfaces and the interplay of light and shadow.  <a href="http://ammann-gallery.com/">more info here.</a>
