Jean-Daniel Allanche, L'atelier moléculaire de Saint-Germain-des-Prés
⇢ 19.01.23 — 25.03.23
Tout est œuvre, motif, trouvaille onirique, chromatique et scientifique dans l’appartement-atelier de Jean-Daniel Allanche (1940-2015) où le fantastique a investi avec profusion l’espace et où le moindre recoin a été source d’un questionnement métaphysique. L’Atelier moléculaire de Saint-Germain-des-Prés -œuvre aujourd’hui démantelée– est l’histoire intime d’un artiste complexe et le résultat figuratif de sa vie. Cette exposition, et le livre qui l’accompagne, sont une immersion poétique et hors de toutes conventions guidées par sa fille Lucile, témoin privilégiée et archiviste méticuleuse.
Everything is a work, a motif, a dreamlike, chromatic and scientific find in the studio-appartement of Jean-Daniel Allanche (1940-2015), where the fantastic has profusely invested the space and where the smallest corner has been a source of metaphysical questioning.The Molecular Studio of Saint-Germain-des-Prés -a work now dismantled- is the intimate story of a complex artist and the figurative illustration of his life.This exhibition and this book is a poetic and unconventional immersion guided by his daughter Lucile, privileged witness and meticulous archivist.

Max Modesti and Hervé Perdriolle met in 2012 at the India Art Fair in New Delhi. Both share a passion for India. Their paths have often crossed, in India as in France, mainly around emerging Indian artists that the first collects and that the second exhibits. Both leave Paris for Brussels, Max in 2015, Hervé in 2019. It was during their wanderings and discussions in Brussels that the idea of opening a gallery was born.
"Art is what makes life more interesting than art", this quote from Robert Filliou also illustrates what unites Max Modesti and Hervé Perdriolle, a pronounced taste for the encounters and adventures that the art world arouses.
