OPENING / VERNISSAGE : SATURDAY / SAMEDI 8 JANUARY 2011 6 TO 9 PM GALERIE MAGDA DANYSZ 78 RUE AMELOT PARIS 11 M� SAINT SEBASTIEN FROISSART Chase the dragon Opening 8 January, 2011 6 to 9PM Until 26 February, 2011 Chase the dragon : "Paint as some could not stop smoking their opium pipe back in the days." "Do crack heads and painters have something in common ?" "What is painting about these days ?" Rock meets Chic and let�s see where the painters lead us in their trip while under the adrenaline of their own painting. With artists such as Dado, Peter Saul, Kosta Kulundzic, Jer�me Zonder and Axel Phalavi, the show explores the practice of painting, the feeling induced and what it is to break the limits... DEFINITION / �Chase the dragon� : Hong Kong slang. From the time of Opium den, the term refers to inhaling the smoke from heated drug placed on a piece of foil; term now considered as more complex. From the first high, to the impression of intense euphoria, everything one can to obtain that same �high� as the first drug try out. Chase the dragon Vernissage le 8 Janvier, 2011 de 18h � 21h jusqu�au 26 F�vrier, 2011 Chase the Dragon : les peintres sont ils sous la m�me pression que ces drogu�s dans les fumeries d�opium qui ne pouvaient plus s�arr�ter. Avec des artistes comme Dado, Peter Saul, Kosta Kulundzic, Jer�me Zonder and Axel Phalavi, l�exposition, � la fois chic et rock, explore les limites de la peinture, les �motions de la cr�ation et le fait de d�passer ses limites. De jeunes peintres ayant le vent en poupe d�cident de se confronter � leurs ain�s et � leurs d�mons. Chase the Dragon propose les regards de plusieurs artistes sur le d�passement de soi. DEFINITION / �Chasser le dragon� : expression emprunt�e � l�argot de Hong Kong du temps des fumeries d�opium, d�signant au d�part la m�thode consistant � inhaler les vapeurs d�h�ro�ne, de coca�ne, ou de toute autre drogue, chauff�e, la plupart du temps, sur une feuille d�aluminium par le dessous. |
