The Museum of Contemporary d Art explores the early years of the Catalan artist Àngels Ribé, with an exhibition that covers the period between 1969 and 1984 and which title, In the maze, is inspired by one of his most emblematic works.

The exhibition can be viewed until October 23 and investigates in more than 70 works all the elements that shaped the language of the artist: the fusion with nature, the presence of his own body and the integration of geometric shapes.

“ L’Herbier Merveilleux” title of Jean Michel Othoniel’s  last solo show will take place at Castillo Real in Provence from the 7th of July to the 30th of Septemeber. The exhibition gathers some of Othoniel’s works as well as the medieval miniatures of King René the 1st, Duke of Anjou and Count of Provence.
The exhibition is curated by Ado Bastié and it’s framed on the context of the tenth edition of APART (art contemporain des Alpilles et de Provence), festival of contemporary art which will take place in the city of Tarascon.

The current ACFNY Visiting Artist, Isabel Rocamora (U.K/ Spain) will present a screening of two of her short films. The artist/filmmaker will present Body of War and Horizon of exile on 1st August

Body of War (2010) reflects on how a man becomes a soldier through the relentless repetition of acts of violence. Set in the Normandy Landing geography, punctuated by testimonies of serving soldiers, a visceral hand-to-hand combat is gradually deconstructed – inviting the viewer to engage in the relationship between human intimacy and the brutality of war choreography. An observation of the momentary collapse of the heroic, Body of War stages the pathos of military strategy by using documented mise-en-scène as a form of discourse rather than celebration.
