The angle grinder, Christophe Goutal – discs, Jean-Pierre Morand

On the walls of the tiny Galerie Ici, located a stone's throw from the Cirque d'Hiver, six artists are showing works based on music. Each one gives pride of place to conceptual art and gives free rein to their interpretation of the musical "product".

We came for Christophe Goutal, a slightly mocking dandy artist who casts his gently ironic gaze on the absurdity of the world, which includes the world of art.

We enjoy his "Bon tant pis!", a miniature piano with broken keys, and "Les murs ont des oreilles", a panel riddled with cotton buds, or his circular saw transformed into a record player. Original, fun, contemporary.

We also like his abstract scores from which we almost believe we can hear musical notes escaping, just like the paintings of Sivan Rubinstein.

Walls have ears, Christophe Goutal

At the Ici Gallery, there is also room for the abstract scores of Agnès L'hospitalier and the paintings of Sivan Rubinstein from which one almost thinks one can hear notes escaping. 

The wonder is also there for the kinetic works of gallery owner Jean-Pierre Morand, himself a visual artist.

Until November 23, 2024
