This month of May started off with a bang with a very cool private exhibition that I told you about in the previous post here . During my trip to Nièvre, I took the opportunity to deliver paintings and above all attend some very cool exhibitions that I would like to share with you today
FIAAC
From May 8 to 12, the 10th edition of the International Actual Art Fair took place in the Pouilly-Fumé cellars (Nièvre). So we took a few days to wander through the event's 12 partner cellars to discover quality exhibitions.
My preferences were for:
Diane de Cicco at Domaine Caïlbourdin
Tanya Angelo at Domaine Seguin
Yves Caillaud at Domaine Baudin
Pascal Bost (Public Prize 2023 edition, guest of honor at the Pavillon du Milieu Loire)
Seeing all these beautiful exhibitions and this work, I understand everything I have to accomplish in turn, the discipline I need to develop and perseverance. Now I just want to be with them next year!
In the meantime, since my return to Nevers, I have been able to collect the artist's proofs of the latest paintings and once again, I am delighted with the result ! They are all available here: https://www.aurianestudio.com/art-print
The canvas prints of the work "Under control" are mounted on a frame and the concrete is in place! This week, I will be able to tackle the finishing touches before sending the precious paintings to the lucky buyers!

I just have one hand-reworked print left to grab for the month of June ! Don't wait, there won't be another edition :)
Rent a work of art with purchase option
Over time, and particularly during our long period of confinement, I was able to understand the extent to which art is essential for questioning the world and feeling good at home or in one's office. It doesn't just adorn a wall, it enhances the energy of a room, of an interior (its interior) and original works in particular are a great investment for yourself.

Recently, I have been working on the development of a financing solution to acquire my paintings, namely rental with option to purchase . Yes, leasing is possible for the purchase of a work of art!
I have been working for some time with the gallery The Art Cycle which easily offers this option to their clients and for my part, you will be able to find the complete catalog of my works available with monthly payments of 50€ or 100€ per month on simple request at aurianestudio@gmail.com.
In the catalog you can choose from more than ten canvases with a purchase value of more than €500 and up to €3,200. Enough to invest in beautiful pieces.
I hope you like this solution, it's a simple and affordable way to easily invest in art and maybe even become a collector!
Venice and art
As I write to you, I am returning from a getaway to Venice to visit the International Art Biennale and, above all, the exhibition of works by one of my favorite artists: Chu Teh-Chun .

Very beautiful discovery of the city along its canals, in the streets dating from the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, from the large San Marco square with Byzantine architecture (say that it dates from 850 AD...) . Very interesting compositions...
Besides, we had a nice surprise on Sunday evening: the acqua alta, this moment when water floods certain parts of the city when the tide is high. That evening, it covered San Marco Square... magical!
The Biennale of Venice
The Biennale Venice is divided into two main sites, with some countries having their pavilions in the Giardini gardens and others in successive rooms at the Arsenale, the former Venice shipyard. There are also numerous exhibitions scattered throughout the heart of the city (Croatia has rented an artist's studio... magical!).

The first day was devoted to the Giardini , a walk from pavilion to pavilion to discover the interpretations of the theme " Foreigners everywhere " which highlights different ways of exploring the notion of community, marginality in the broad sense. The main pavilion brought together, for example, works by immigrant artists of all origins and who have taken up residence in all types of countries for various reasons under the theme Disobedience archive , collection of works from the years 1975 to 2023, diaspora activism and Gender disobedience J' loved the Spain pavilion with the works of Sandra Gamarra Heshiki, a Spanish-Peruvian artist who presented her oil works questioning the impact of colonization on indigenous Peruvians. The lively music from the Belgian pavilion by the Petticoat Government collective and its giants to travel across Europe, the invitation of the Art Circle of Congolese Plantation Workers to the Netherlands Pavilion to denounce human trafficking for oil harvesting palm and cocoa. Yael Bartana and Ersan Mondtag's spaceship at the German pavilion, intriguing!
The second day, thanks to the vaporettos (boat as public transport), we went to San Giorgio Island to discover the Cini foundation and the magnificent installation of the exhibition of the works of Chu Teh-Chun in the heart of 'an old swimming pool from the 70s. So many emotions in front of these large paintings full of light, life, depth... The art of taking people on a journey through color. We end the visit with his first creations, paintings created between 1955 and 1960... a 50-year gap with his last paintings. Nothing to do with the vibrancy of the colors. I must admit that it gives a lot of hope when we give time, proof that evolution is immutable with perseverance. In short, captivated and filled with hope, I can't wait to pick up my brushes again!
On the third day, the Arsenale opened its doors to us. We wander through the history of the works, the relationship that each artist maintains with cultural traditions and interpretation thanks to contemporary art... A building which allows for very beautiful installations and scenographic inspirations not to be overlooked. ..
Back in France, we are already preparing the next getaway, next week in Paris, for my first exhibition with The Art Cycle gallery!
I have the pleasure of inviting you to the opening on Thursday June 13 at 7 p.m., at 79 rue des Gravilliers, 75003 Paris.

And we don't forget, Sunday first hiking-painting in the Pre-Alps with Frédéric Devésa. Registration with Frédéric: http://frederic.devesa.free.fr/baladecoloree.htm

And if you live far away, why not enjoy a stay with us in the Pre-Alps thanks to the Les Grandes Roches third-place from July 26 to 28 or in a gîte in the heart of the Verdon with Julien from October 14 to 16? ;)
