In the beginning…

The Eric & Valérie Galéa Gallery Presents “in the beginning…” , a selection of works by sculptor Ariel Moscovici From October 20th through November 11, 2018 at the Chapelle Sainte-Foy des Beaumettes.

 

About forty artworks: Sculptures made of steel, bronze, granite and marble as well as paintings and prints in relation to the works in volume will bring their testimony of 40 years of career.

 

Ariel is inspired by the Bible. In the Book of the Genesis, “Bereshit”, the first word of the Bible in Hebrew means “in the beginning”.

 

He interprets the creation of the world as if his multifaceted sculptures were capable of containing all the forms of life to come.

 

Sometimes he uses several works to create a journey in time with points and a space.

 

The words of his language are stone, metal, clay.

 

He finds that the idiom that suits him best is that of the shape, the volume, the texture, the nuance and the color.

 

He does not explain his works because he does not want to demystify them. It offers you your own interpretation.

 

FNB JOHANNESBURG ART FAIR 2018

The gallery attended FNB Johannesburg Art Fair for the fifth time, we decided to exhibit a solo show of Mamady SEYDI’s sculptures.
After a first exhibition of his body of work at FNB Johannesburg Art Fair in 2015 where he was very well appreciated, sculptures of the Senegalese artist one again received a warm welcome.
We thank the collectors who identified his talent and validate our choice.
