Bernard Frize exhibition at Centre Pompidou

Bernard Frize given pride of place…. The French artist and one of the most unmissable painters from the international art scene now is exhibited with a monography about his work, from May 29 to August 26, 2019 at Centre Pompidou. An exhibition created with the artist himself, by invitation of the Parisian venue.

A retrospective focusing on Bernard Frize’s work that shows the many aspects of his works, throygh the presentation of over 70 works created from his debuts in 1976 to nowadays. An artist mostly known for his abstract paintings and “serial conceptual” paintings, but he doesn’t hesitate to include figurative elements starting from the 80’s, while developing an interest in photography at the same time.

A monography highlighting “the intellectual strategies and challenges underlying the painter’s work”. And the themes included in his works, such as absurd, idleness, system, continuity, randomness and even virtuosity. Works that at the end of the day keep on questioning the role of the painter in his art and by extension on the international scene, in his core field. Shall we go there, friends?
