DROWNING
2012
Alban shared some thoughts about his project Drowning with Yatzer.>> I have always been interested in social facts. I believe street art is just a way to enrich the meaning of a piece of art, so I guess all I wanted was for people to stop in front of it and ask themselves “Why?”. The city could become my game field so I decided to work with this idea. Besides, who has not felt 'drowned' in his/her own city?
There was a semantic game behind exhibiting the Drowning photos near this legendary river, which runs through the heart of Paris and it was also a good opportunity for me to expose my work, which is why we make art in the first place, isn’t it?<<

PLACE
Paula Scher China 2006 acrylic
“It's funny how "a part"
and "apart" are complete opposites, yet only differ by a little space.” ― Wade Rouse, I'm Not the Biggest Bitch in This Relationship:
“I think we dream so we don’t have to be apart for so long. If we’re in each other’s dreams, we can be together all the time.” ― A.A. Milne, Winnie-the-Pooh
Edward Hopper NIGHTHAWKS 1940
Edward Burra
Edward Burra THE STRAW MAN 1963
We’re only here once and I want to get as much out of it possible. And as an artist, my job is to be as much "me" as possible.”
Grayson Perry PUNTERS IN THE SNOW 1999
The photograph which follows is by CHRISTOPHE JACROT RAIN 2013'In my opinion, there are two ways of capturing the world for a photographer; on the one hand grasping its horror, and on the other sublimating it. I have chosen the second. More specifically, I like the way rain, snow and 'bad weather' awaken a feeling of romantic fiction within me, mainly in the big cities,' explains the artist.

OBJECTS
Louise Nevelson emerged in the art world amidst the dominance of the Abstract Expressionist movement. In her most iconic works, she utilized wooden objects that she gathered from urban debris piles to create her monumental installations - a process clearly influenced by the precedent of Marcel Duchamp's found object sculptures and "readymades." Nevelson carefully arranged the objects in order to historicize the debris within the new, narrative context of her wall sculptures. The stories embodied within her works resulted from her cumulative experiences - as a Jewish child relocated to America from Russia, as an artist training in New York City and Germany, and as a hard-working, successful woman. Her innovative sculptural environments and success within the male-dominated realm of the New York gallery system inspired many younger artists, primarily those involved in installation art and the Feminist art movements.

Imagination
Bridget Riley Achaean As in her stripe paintings of 1967-73, Riley's use of the stripe format represents a desire to use 'unassertive forms' which allow the colours to establish the painting's structure.
