Art Cologne

Hall 11.1 Booth C319

We are happy to see you again for the 56th edition of the Cologne fair.

We will return to the group exhibitions organized at the gallery since the beginning of the year. Particularly on “Motionless Mobility” where the spectator is no longer a simple viewer, he will have to exercise his gaze to seek and find what the immobile work can offer him as mobile, with the works of Siegfried Kreitner, Timo Nasseri and Victor Vasarely (1908-1997).

Past exhibitionFrom 14 October to 16 December 2023

Dialogues

Dialogues

Karina Bisch - Alberto Magnelli

For the exhibition “Dialogues: Karina Bisch / Alberto Magnelli”, the Lahumière gallery invited contemporary artist Karina Bisch to take a unique look at the work of Alberto Magnelli, an Italian painter who lived the last forty years of his life in Paris (from 1931 to 1971). The proposition? Restore visibility to this major figure of abstraction whose influence was particularly decisive in the post-Second World War period on artists as important as Victor Vasarely, Jean Dewasne, Piero Dorazio...

Trials

Trials

Hans-Jörg Glattfelder

From a plastic work that its author wants to place in the wake of concrete art, we expect it to be expressed in and through strict rigor.

Traditionally this rigor is of a geometrical order, but also, and in my opinion with more innovative results, it can be based on the universal energies and structures of nature: the full and the empty, the interior and the exterior, the visible and the invisible, the simple and the multiple, finally: on all imaginable contrasts and structures.

Booth G7 Hall 2.0

This year on our stand we will highlight the period of Auguste Herbin’s Plastic Alphabet (1882-1960) which began around 1942, the last of his career, the most iconic, Arthur Rimbaud (1854-1891) had made it a poem, Auguste Herbin painted it. Two years separate him from André Derain (1880-1954), at the end of his career, unlike the latter, Auguste Herbin is innovative, he opens a field of exploration to a whole next generation of artists, such as Olle Baertling (1911-1981), Jo Delahaut (1911-1992), Jean Dewasne (1921-1999), Günter Fruhtrunk (1921-1982), or even Victor Vasarely (1906-1997). A number of artists have gravitated to Herbin, including Geneviève Claisse (1935-2018), also author of her catalog raisonné.

Aurelie Nemours with friends

Aurelie Nemours with friends

Ode Bertrand, Charles Bézie, Jean-François Dubreuil, Gottfried Honegger, Jean Leppien et Henri Prosi

This exhibition brings together, around the works of Aurelie Nemours, the works of some of her friends. A great abstract and geometric artist of the second half of the 20th century, Aurelie Nemours (1910-2005) was able to unite around her a large number of artists with whom she had many lively discussions on art. To tell the truth, in her quest for the absolute, she met contemporaries like Jean Leppien (1910-1991), with whom the arguments on the crosses were endless, Gottfried Honegger (1917-2016) who supported her a lot, advocated constructive art above all, with strength and conviction. Among the next generation, impressed by this tenacity, as by its commitment to this abstraction, we will find Ode Bertrand, Charles Bézie, Jean-François Dubreuil or even Henri Prosi (1936-2010).

Past exhibitionFrom 14 January to 4 March 2023

P. Bury, J. d’Imbleval, A. Kowalski, F. Morellet, Yvaral, J. R. Soto, A.Stempfel, I.Gouyon-Matignon, S.Kreitner, T.Nasseri, V.Vasarely

So here it is, in this exhibition on the theme of immobile mobility, the movement suggested but not consumed, will give free rein to our imagination. The work that we will fix in the greatest immobility, will play with our vision, and yet nothing moves, except our eyes. Have you ever had this strange feeling that something is moving, without being sure?
