,<\/span><\/p>\n Guest artist : Dorian Casacci<\/strong><\/p>\n Exhibition from June 28 to September 6, 2014<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Kepler 186f, a mysterious and ambitious title. What can he be hiding?<\/span> <\/span>Kepler is Johannes Kepler, a sixteenth-century German mathematician, astronomer and astrologer. It was he who determined that the planets orbit in an ellipse around the sun. He also demonstrated that their speed depended on the distance from the sun and described the movement of each planet around our sun.<\/span>Kepler is also a NASA telescope that was put into orbit in 2009, its mission: to detect exoplanets. It broke down in 2013.<\/span>Kepler 186f is the first Earth-sized exoplanet located in the habitable zone of the Kepler 186 sun. It could have water in liquid form, a sine qua non condition for the presence of life as we know it. It was in April 2014 that the false twin of our Earth was revealed to the world, to our world.<\/span>What does this have to do with Kristof Everart’s work, you might ask? Will he offer us his vision of this planet? Illustrations of his landscapes? From his campaigns? Its cities? Show us its inhabitants? Not really.<\/span> <\/span>Everart’s latest works explore territories, their borders, boundaries and expanse, the passage from one territory to another, from one space to another, from one concept to another. Kepler 186f is the fantasized other, the inaccessible other, the other where everything is unknown, everything is possible. This is the main thread of this exhibition. It is beyond the overlaps, Transformations of his exhibition at the Galerie des Ponchettes during the winter of 2009. It tells a story of experiences and feelings. To do this, the Eva Vautier Gallery has been transformed, it now houses a new world. The traffic is modified, new areas are born.<\/span>On the first level, the top of a mountain, the passage of a desert pass, in front of it, blocking it, a sculpture posed, luminous, a turning point and here we are in front of big paintings, moving landscapes, spots of paintings, clouds, nuances, forms to be distinguished, inviting to contemplation. An atmosphere between two states, sobriety, lightness, an abstraction at the limit of the figuration which tells us a surrealist story, a construction of the chance decided by the Architect of this world.<\/span>Upstairs, air, drawings, suspended trees, carved wood, a traffic node leading to treasures arranged here and there, a light score, music improvised by Dorian Casacci, the artist musician invited by Kristof Everart, who proposes a reading and a sound illustration of this enigmatic world. A world where, as in Twin Peaks, “there is always music in the air” and appearance can be deceiving.<\/span> <\/span>More than an exhibition, Kepler 186f is a proposal, a crossing of familiar territories, that a shift makes us unknown, near and far, within reach of hand and mind. A plastic reflection on what surrounds us, on our perception, our apprehension and our sensations.<\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Anne-Sophie Lecharme<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [\u2026]<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":82643,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"portfolio-types":[1806,1765],"class_list":["post-81112","portfolio","type-portfolio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio-types-2014-en","portfolio-types-past"],"yoast_head":"\n\n
