A square + a square, exhibition by Annie Alunni

It features some thirty works, most of them made up of several small squares of paintings, which complement or oppose each other. You need to take the time to soak up the atmosphere that emanates from the works, giving sensations of confinement or desires for freedom, sadness or willpower, in short emotions that carry meaning.

David Alibo's Feminin-Plural exhibition in Nice is presented at Lou Babazouk 2, from April 2 to 21, 2024.

David Alibo’s Féminin-Pluriel exhibition in Nice

David Alibo is a collagist. That is, he cuts and glues different pieces of paper to make works of art. And what works they are!
First, the collages are made with such mastery that you have to get up close to realize the different pieces. But above all, it's the composition, or rather the staging, that makes the works so compelling and meaningful.

In a style inspired by surrealism, he creates works strong in meaning and symbolism. Admire his series on humanity, the first three paintings on the left as you enter. Admire his tributes to Josephine Baker and Marilyn Monroe. Finally, always oscillating between surrealism and symbolism, David Alibo exhibits a great tribute to women.

André Camart's Transparence exhibition in Nice runs from April 2 to 21, 2024 in the Lou Babazouk room

Exhibition Transparence by André Camart in Nice

André Camart is a painter who began by referring to some of the great masters of painting, such as Caravaggio. But he searched for his own voice, based on his own impulses and emotions. He soon abandoned the figurative for the abstract.
André Camart paints abstracts to which everyone can respond in their own way. Indeed, his canvases carry meaning - for the artist, of course, but also for the visitor. His work cannot leave you indifferent. There's always an element, a color, a way of working with matter that guides the visitor. It's up to each individual to perceive his or her own personal meaning.
The artist is constantly evolving and searching. Like these canvases in front of which we photographed him, which are a search for color transparency. Or could we say: a search for transparency in spite of color? Or these other paintings, which contrast a harsh, even hostile universe with an elevation to greater light and harmony.
But you'll have your own interpretation when you visit this exhibition.

100 titles by Frédéric Pasquini exhibition is on view at the Musée Charles Nègre de la photographie gallery in Nice, from March 30 to June 23, 2024.

100 titles by Frédéric Pasquini exhibition

Frédéric Pasquini has photographed moments in everyday life, mainly in Europe. He captures the moment that reveals a reality other than the one we see. He captures the expression on a face as much as the unexpected in social movements, the poetry of a scene, the unusualness of yet banal situations. Art is not only photographic, it's born of the connections the artist makes. The subjects are very diverse, which already captures our attention. But the photos presented take on another dimension, when you read their titles.
So I suggest you enlarge our photos to read their captions. And you'll agree that Frédéric Pasquini has a great sense of humor. And his photos take on a new meaning that they didn't necessarily have at first glance. In fact, the artist plunges us into a raw reality that every visitor will recognize. This is what makes his photos so pleasing, revealing society's major problems without being professorial or moralistic, leaving each viewer free to interpret. A great success.
It's varied, colorful, original and captivating. In short, this is an exhibition we absolutely recommend.
