Albert Baronian is pleased to announce the fifth exhibition of Lionel Estève, entitled « April ».
« Sometimes it is easier to define something by what it’s not, rather than what it is. For the “April” exhibition I did not want to produce a work which would be comfortable to talk about, something discursive, narrative or analytical. I wanted to make a statement that goes against the current grain, to affirm that everything is not political and that there are still spaces that escape this kind of discourse; for example, to talk about intimacy or a landscape that echoes it. That was my purpose.
My intention was to take up the space of the Albert Baronian gallery once again and to retranscribe this imaginary landscape, rendering its broad lines as the expression of a genesis. To do this, I used two types of works: “ Papiers de Provence ” and “ Chants géologiques ”.
