Alexis Vanasses's First Solo Exhibition
About
Alexis Vanasse’s first solo exhibition La tulipe est ostensible et l’artiste trivial (The blooming of the ostensible tulip and the trivial artist) expands the boundaries of the still life trope, transforming traditional still lives into poetic sculptural tableaus comprising unusual, sometimes surreal juxtapositions of found and altered objects. Defying immediate rational interpretation, they engage the viewer in an intersubjective dialogue with the artist over potential meanings and ultimately challenge the Enlightenment values of rationality and reason.
