1) - Is Enz a pseudonym?
- Chose this name in 1978, while being psychologically wuxing (Japanese mushin), for phonetics: the noise which an object launched in l' could make; space. Then domiciled with Antwerp, j' noted qu' in Dutch the Enz orthography was the diminutive of and will cetera. Taking into consideration my successive existence in this life, this name corresponded to me perfectly.
2) Why Art of Self?
- In 1974, I noted by reading Essais on the Zen Buddhism, of Japanese Daisetz Teitaro Suzuki, that... [more]

Natural / Industrial

Rodolphe Huguet at galerie martinethibaultdelachâtre
May 16th - July 4th
Posted
5/30/09
Rodolphe Huguet's works concern a rather unholy matrimony between the natural and the industrial, bound together by the artist's hand in quite unusual ways, resulting in objects that are rendered at once impotent and striking. Vespa Velutina Road, the exhibition of his most recent works now on view at galerie martinethibaultdelachâtre, is centered around an eponymous sculpture, a broken wheelbarrow painted black with the bronzed front of a Vespa scooter attached to it. The striking colo... [more]

Posted
5/30/09
What can I say but every time I've walked into Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin on impasse St Claude I enter a state of ecstatic reverie and I can't help but smile as I take in the works. Following the absolute tour de force that was the Lionel Estève exhibit is an equally rapturous installation by the mistress of the universe, that extraterrestrial artist known as Mariko Mori.
Seven new works are on display in the front gallery, a series of White Holes, or amorphously egg-like white alumin... [more]

Le projet d'Aleksandra Mir, "Plane Landing", repose sur la création d'un ballon gonflé à l'hélium, reprenant les formes et dimensions d'un avion de ligne. Suspendu au-dessus du sol en constante position d'atterrissage, l'avion a d'abord été présenté en juillet 2004 dans un cadre typiquement anglais, avant d'entamer un tour du monde vers d'autres paysages de cartes postales. En juillet 2008, l'avion a atterri à l'aéroport de Zürich puis en octobre à Paris, où il a été ph... [more]
