As part of the NUIT BLANCHE 2020, the H art agency is delighted to invite you to the event :

DANSES NOCTURNES by the artist BENOÎT DUTOUR on October 3rd 2020, from 8pm to 2am Place Des Vosges. His elegant “En vie de larme” will be exhibited in the sumptuous garden of the Place des Vosges.

The exhibition continues at the Teodora Galerie from 6 to 10 October 2020 with a vernissage on 7 October from 6 to 9.30 pm in the presence of the artist.

Remember! In 2019 Benoît Dutour already dazzled us with his installation in Parc Montouris!

Inspired in particular by the New Realists, the humour of Magritte and the conceptual work of Duchamp, Benoît Dutour uses a wide range of techniques and mediums to offer multiple points of entry into his universe. In search of the perfect form and the ideal balance, he carefully observes the drop of water that falls from the sky and the balance that is created between tension and resistance.

Attracted by complex processes, he develops the series “En vie de larmes” according to the inclusion process in the shape of tears after 18 months of exchanges and tests with specialised art craftsmen. Benoît Dutour places the technique and materials at the service of the expression and transmission of an emotion. Wishing to make his thoughts accessible to as many people as possible, he sometimes goes so far as to insert the question asked or elements of the answers within his work.

For the NUIT BLANCHE 2020, Benoît Dutour reinvents our approach to nature in an urban environment. The elements he decides to include in his tears awaken a contradictory feeling of proximity and distance to a fauna and flora in motion… Like a jewel box, his work crystallises beauty and invites us to a poetic stroll in the middle of Paris. ????✨
