Miroir Noir 'Parellel Universes' @ GMB (SK)



MN_GMB2015_Flyer
Copipasteo el artículo de la web de Miroir Noir donde detallamos qué y como sobre la expo en Bratislava, por si le interesa a algun despistado políglota. En Eslovaquia la cosa va en serio, GMB ya es un museo a la clásica, el de la ciudad de Bratislava. A nivel de mecánicas, es curioso que se vendan más piezas en una muestra donde no se ponen las piezas a la venta que en una galería comercial. Misterios del arte y sus canales de comercio. Para quien quiera hacerse una idea visual de la instalación, opening y fiestecilla post-retro, pues a visitar los tres enlaces al final de la versión inglesa. Tot va anar molt bé i n'estem molt contents. ///
We are very happy with the exhibition at Palffyho Palace, the most beautiful of the Bratislava Town Gallery (GMB) buildings. It has been nearly four years since we had our last solo show in Bratislava, but it has been worth waiting. Opening June 9th. Exhibition until August 30th. Visiting hours from 11 to 18 except Mondays.
The show will consist of a selection of the twenty (20) most representative works from the three first series in the Gallery section here on the site, which are:
     COMUNION                CANIS L.                   PROPTER N.            
COMUNION           CANIS LUNAE            PROPTER NUPTIAS          
We came to the gallery with more than 30 paintings, but the power of the collection told us that the installation had to be very simple and spacious, as every one of the pieces to be shown was powerful and self explanatory, and could even use much more blank wall in-between than what we finally could give them. So we ended turning down all redundant or superfluous pieces, until getting an essential presentation. Very pleasant and smooth to walk through, and a smart syntethisation of our work and evolution for the past nearly three years.

We must thank our collectors for their patience and collaboration, as half of the pieces here (and in Mikulov exhibition) are coming from private collections. We thought it was important to show the highlights of our rare production, so we once again bothered them with our requests and annoyances. All of them understand that we're on a mission, and they are on it with us.
Please visit our FB page for the full photo-documentary on installation and opening and after-party.

Miroir Noir @ Mikulov (CZR)

Aquí el cartel de la expo que todavía pude visitarse en el (acabamos de volver!!) brutal castillo de Mikulov, en la sorprendentemente provenzal región de Pálava. La expo recoge trabajos de Miroir Noir desde el principio a 2011-12, en una especie de retrospectiva, en la que sobretodo se presentan trabajos sobre papel. Hay un increíble reportaje de la instalación en nuestro FB.
Be aware of the still ongoing Miroir Noir exhibition @ Mikulov Castle... We've added some new pictures to our FB from installation in so beautiful surroundings... As the trip to Mikulov is. It's definitely worth it. This exhibit is kind of retrospective, showing works from 2007 to 2011, and it shows the gap (say evolution) of the group's work in the last eight years, comparing with the also ongoing exhibition at GMBratislavy.
