Pour sa deuxième exposition personnelle à la galerie Derouillon, le peintre Julian Farade présente une série de peintures sur velours, aux teintes nocturnes. Taureaux, oiseaux-tourbillons, chevaux ou tipis y sont figurés dans un chaos violemment apaisé.

Mayumi Suzuki – HOJO — Speciwomen

Anna Prudhomme: What inspired the title 'HOJO' for your project?Mayumi Suzuki: The title HOJO comes from the Japanese kanji meaning "fertility," which is often associated with celebrating the harvest and refers to an abundance of land. In Japan, women have traditionally been worshipped as goddesses of HOJO. The idea of being blessed with abundant crops and many children has been associated with them. However, "fertility" sounds odd in English and isn't appealing as a title. My mentor suggested H...

Elizabeth Lennard: Painted Columns and Imaginary New York —

Anna Prudhomme: How did it first come to your mind to paint your photographs?

Elizabeth Lennard: When I was in my late teens I attended the San Francisco Art Institute in California. It was very much the purist school of black and white photography where you studied Ansel Adams, the zone system, etc … Which I was slightly rebelling against - but as it was an art school, so I wasn't the only one who started to sort of “attack” black and white photographs.

I was very fortunate to have had Tony Ra

Samedi, une Tiktokeuse connue uniquement pour être le sosie d’Ariana Grande, peinait à faire un aller-retour sur le runway, lundi un mec vêtu d’un rideau de douche en plastique tapait l’incruste avant d’être expulsé par la sécurité, tandis que mercredi, un humoriste portant des ailes d’ange a simulé u
