ALEXIS de CHAUNAC

ALEXIS de CHAUNAC

(French-Mexican, b. 1991 in New York, NY, lives and works in New York and Paris, France)

Rapidly up-and-coming artist, Alexis de Chaunac draws from literature, religion, mythology, art history, politics, and his own multicultural background to produce exuberant, mixed-media drawings. He describes drawing as “a transcendental language that anyone can understand.” He works quickly, often with ink because of its fluidity, producing rich, multilayered works filled with faces and laden with cultural references. De Chaunac draws inspiration from such diverse artists as Rembrandt, Goya, Delacroix, Schiele, Picasso, and Francis Bacon, whom he groups together as “chroniclers of the human condition.” His own artistic rendering of humanity comes from literature. He claims influences from the Scriptures to great epics and all the way to Beat Generation writers such as William S. Burroughs. Referring to his practice as contemporary myth making, he takes archetypes such as Oedipus, Jesus Christ or Dante “working out of them to explore the primitive aspects of the human being.”

Born in New York and raised in Mexico City and Paris, he grew up surrounded by art and culture, drawing in the studio of his grandfather – a renowned Mexican artist Jose Luis Cuevas. He then lived for ten years in Paris immersed in European culture only to return to the US to study at the Sarah Lawrence College, NY.

NOBUO SEKINE

Andy WarholPhase Conception: Spring Sea, 1988 Gold foil, acrylic paint on layers of thick hand-made Japanese paper 64 x 89 x 2.5 in.

Born 1942 in Saitama prefecture, Japan.

 

Graduated in 1968 with a M.F.A. in Painting, studying under artist Yoshishige Saito.

 

From 1968 into the 1970s, Sekine worked internationally as a central figure of “Mono-ha” (translated literally as “School of Things”), a movement considered instrumental in the formation of postwar Japanese art.  Phase—Mother Earth, an earthwork first constructed in Suma Rikyu Park, Kobe, in 1968, is widely recognized as marking the beginning of Mono-ha, and as one of the most iconic works of this period in Japan.

 

In 1970, Sekine represented Japan in the Venice Biennale with Phase of Nothingness, consisting of a large natural stone supported by a mirrored stainless steel column.  The sculpture is now in the permanent collection of the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art in Humlebæk, Denmark.  Sekine remained in Europe after the Biennale, exhibiting in Italy, Switzerland, and Denmark.  Informed by his observations on art and architecture, urban and public space in Europe, Sekine returned to Japan to establish Environmental Art Studios, a public art agency, in 1973.

 

From 1978 to 1979, Sekine returned to Europe for the traveling exhibition of his work Phase of Nothingness—Black.  The solo exhibition toured from the Künsthalle Dusseldorf, Germany, to the Louisiana Museum of Modern Art, Humlebæk, Denmark; the Kröller-Müller Museum, Otterlo, Netherlands; and the Henie-Onstad Art Centre, Høvikodden, Norway.

 

In 1993, Sekine and Phase—Mother Earth were cited by 30 participating critics, curators, and journalists in the survey “Sengo bijutsu besuto ten” (Postwar art best ten), featured in the prominent art magazine Bijutsu Shinchō.

 

In 2001, Sekine was included in the exhibit Century City at the Tate Modern, London, for his critical role in the burgeoning Tokyo art scene between 1969 and 1973.  He also participated in the Gwangju Biennale, Korea, the same year.

Selected exhibitions of Sekine and Mono-ha include Reconsidering Mono-ha, The National Museum of Art, Osaka, 2005; What is Mono-Ha? Beijing Tokyo Art Projects, Beijing, 2007; Requiem for the Sun: The Art of Mono-ha, Blum & Poe, Los Angeles, 2012; Art Unlimited, Art Basel, Basel, 2013; Prima Materia, Punta Della Dogana, Venice, 2013; Parallel Views: Italian and Japanese Art from the 1950s, 60s, and 70s,The Rachofsky Warehouse, Dallas, Texas, 2013.

 

Sekine is currently Visiting Professor at Tama Art University and Kobe Design University.
