Last chance to visit solo exhibition of oil paintings by Vega Pagava titled “Celestial bodies,” which is on display at the Jeanne Bucher Jaeger gallery in Paris. The exhibition ends January 14, 2017.The artist not only limited herself to the painting, that antediluvian constraint of a wooden panel or a canvas over a stretcher, but she also narrowed her focus to oil painting, and, up to 1960, to genres as traditional as the still life and the landscape. And yet, against all expectations, her art is highly singular, combining formal purity with luminous intimacy.The artist developed this very personal pictorial universe with unfailing constancy and determination, always defying pictorial practices that, setting out to give life to a form of painting that modernity had declared dead and buried, often tended towards the spectacular, whether by expressiveness of touch and the use of more modern mediums such as acrylic, or by recourse to emphatic formats.The exhibition is on view at Jeanne Bucher Jaeger St. Germain Space, 53 rue de Seine 75 0006, Paris, France.For details, visit: http://jeannebucherjaeger.com/exhibition/solo-exhibition-in-collaboration-with-galerie-le-minotaure/Click on the slideshow for a sneak peek of the exhibition.
