La Roche et l’Ether exhibition

4 June 2022 - 28 August 2022

ROCK and ETHER – Collective exhibition with :

Georges BRU, Jean-Marie CARTEREAU, Guy IBANEZ, Magali LATIL, Anthony SIMON, Carla VAN DER WERF

Highlight of the annual program of the Gueules Rouges museum, the exhibition LA ROCHE et L’ETHER was born under the impetus of the Var painter Jean-Marie Cartereau who imagined associating LA ROCHE, raw material faced by miners when extracting bauxite ore, and ETHER, final gaseous state impalpable by dint of manipulations.

To me, bauxite and the miner are at the heart of the subject of each of the artists who have endeavored to produce a set of new works echoing the industrial heritage of the Provence Verte Agglomeration which is here, more than ever, source d’inspiration.

A text by the poet Antoine Simon accompanies this exhibition and makes the publication that accompanies the exhibition a real literary object..

LA ROCHE et L’ETHER is part of a desire to support the creation of new works with a diversity of expressions. For several years, the contemporary art program of the Gueules Rouges museum aims to be open to practices that promote the porosity of fields of expression and the diversity of audiences. It is in this continuity that LA ROCHE et L'ETHER was designed. This exhibition is naturally intended to be convivial, for the sake of dialogue and exchange.
