PROTANOPIAUTOPIA
We are almost ready for tonight’s opening. If you’re in Paris this week, stop by Galerie RueVisconti for the third (and final) instalment of Honoré.
Galerie RueVisconti17-19, rue Visconti
75006 Paris
Curated by Hannah Trolley, Protanopiautopia explores the aesthetics of colour, in less than beautiful or aesthetic subjects. It was triggered by Richard Mosse’s pink Congo scenes, soldiers and refugees shot on infra-red film, and the idea of how an attractive colour, especially pink, changes the context of difficult or unattractive subjects, people can be ‘blinded’ by the colour. Hannah decided to present these ideas in the work of two of our artists Boo Saville and Henry Hudson, who have produced new work which is pink, of grim and grotesque subjects. Boo in colour biro, Henry in plasticine.
Protanopiautopia also features the work of Spanish photographer Ricardo Cases, who did the acclaimed photobook Paloma al aire. He showed it to Hannah at a workshop in Madrid years ago and she thought it was great but Gigi (Giannuzzi) said the story was too much like a ‘gang rape’ of this poor female pigeon so we didn’t do it! Now it is pretty famous… In the same way he created a very strong and original book, for the exhibition format there are prints but also more experimental installations of the work.
