Clémentine Bruno, Parker Ito, Christophe de Rohan Chabot
White Sands ATS-3
from 01.12.2023 to 27.01.2024
White Sands ATS-3 is a group exhibition featuring works by Clémentine Bruno, Parker Ito, and Christophe de Rohan Chabot. Curated by Caroline Drevait and Estelle Marois, the show presents a diverse range of both existing and new artworks, including paintings, sculptures, prints, and photography.
Bruno, Ito and de Rohan Chabot share a kinship in their sharp attention to the contemporary image’s status, its making, and the interplay between subject, object, and representation. Examining the totalising nature of desire, the exhibition delves into the dialectics between frustration and satisfaction, incompleteness and the impulse to fill voids, the part and the whole. The project further observes how the object of desire transforms, as the narrowing of distance, possession, not to say devouring and digestion come into play – how it can become increasingly unfamiliar, unsettling, or uncanny.
White Sands ATS-3 is the continuation of a curatorial project by curators Drevait and Marois, after the group exhibition not before it has forgotten you which was held at The Pole Gallery, Paris and at Nicoletti, London (2022).
The exhibition also includes a collaboration between Clémentine Bruno and Will Sheridan on a photographic installation.
