FIAC 2017: Day 2
28 October 2017
There was so much to see I paid the fair a second visit!
Tatiana Trouvé had some amazing work at White Cube. ‘Untitled’, 2017 is a lovely approach to work on paper, collaging and mounting it on canvas
In contrast was Christian Lindow’s portrait of a woman who died very young, painted a few decades ago
Once again I took a long look at Ida Tursic & Wilfried Mille at Galerie Max Hetzler
In the evening we visited ‘Women House’ at Monnaie de Paris, an incredible group show about the female and domesticity. It was great to revisit Rachel Whiteread’s ‘Modern Chess Set’, 2005
We had a glorious lunch at Beaux-Arts de Paris where we met the illustrious Per Kirkeby. Per was a very happy man to be out meeting all his wonderful intuitional supporters, here he is with Sir Nicholas Serota
Then it was off to Cahiers d'Art HQ where many beautiful books have been published. Swedish art collector Staffan Ahrenberg showed us around and we were in awe. We particularly loved Per Kirkeby’s brick works
Finally there was time to stop off at Place Vendôme to view Oscar Tuazon’s monumental sculptures
