In colour, Bertrand Lavier

This monographic exhibition of Bertrand Lavier, a major French artist of international stature, summons the prism of color, from its symbolism to its materiality. Around twenty iconic, recent, or previously unseen works manifest the artist's singular, delightful, and no less complex approach, characterized by the appropriation of popular objects and clichés of modern art.
