BRONZE: a contemporary art exhibition by Pierre Bonnefille
VERNISSAGE, 27th of January 2016 at 6.30 in copperation with Le Paris Phuket Magazine (4 years anniversary).
Bronze by Pierre Bonnefille, curated by ChanintrLiving and YenakART Villa – is a creation inspired by the transformations of materials, from fusions to crystallizations. The bronze stretches out, liquefies and freezes as evanescent patterns on immense abstract canvases. The artist only uses the powder which is transformed in a personal and totally unusual approach. The bronze texture hangs from a metallic mesh, revealing landscapes, aquatic reflections, and silky traces.
Bronze is Pierre Bonnefille's latest work and was showcased at Le Grand Palais during Paris Design Week 2015. His original chromatic palette is derived from pigments from all over the world. A contemporary alchemy, surface textures resembling animal and plant skins, engraved with graphic details, playing with light, color and space.
Bronze is on preview until 24th of Jan 2016 at MahaSamutr Pavillon, hosted by Pace Development and will be exhibited at YenakArt Villa from 27th of January to 24th February, 2016.
