LITA ALBUQUERQUE | LE SOIR: PRESS

Three worlds between heaven and earth at the Patinoire Royale Bach
 
Jean-Marie Wynants writes in Le Soir about the three current exhibitions: Lita Albuquerque's Early Works, Renaud Auguste-Dormeuil's La réalité n'a pas besoin de moi, and Guerre Celeste by Marie-Luce Nadal.


The huge space of the Patinoire Royale was the perfect setting for presenting, for the first time in Europe, a series of works by American artist Lita Albuquerque. A multi-disciplinary artist, Albuquerque made her name in the 1970s with a series of ephemeral works in the spirit of the Light and Space and Land Art movements.

 

Don't miss a visit to the small gallery on the upper floor to discover the work of Marie-Luce Nadal. From a crossbow used to send a kind of homemade bomb into the clouds to provoke rain, to a calendar of cloud trends, she blends peasant realism and poetry in a journey that brings together texts, installations, drawings, video... Climaxing with astonishing glass cubes enclosing a little earth and delicate cloud condensates.
