Unit London is excited to present its first group exhibition dedicated solely to visual art in three dimensions. In The Round places the mediums of sculpture and ceramics at centre stage, drawing on a vast global and cross-cultural history. Human beings have crafted sculptural objects for many millennia, and these objects have come to slip between practical, domestic, religious, cultural and artistic definitions. The exhibition aims to showcase these diverse sculptural mediums, which have perhaps played a secondary role to works on canvas in the contemporary artworld.

In The Round decisively brings sculpture to the fore, championing the physicality of the medium and demonstrating its continuing pertinence for modern audiences. In this sense, In The Round celebrates the fluidity of sculpture and ceramics. The exhibition questions the rigidity of past canonical sculptural parameters by emphasising the freedom of process and material that three-dimensions can allow. In The Round strives to chart the flexibility of sculptural materials that can metamorphose from something tactile and malleable into something durable and solid, while still maintaining a sense of movement and mutability.

Dans le cadre de l’exposition “Matières premières”, le Centre d’art contemporain ELEVEN STEENS invite BeCraft a occuper le troisième plateau pour y exposer ses artistes membres.

Les courants passent, évoluent. Toujours, les artistes s’imprègnent de ce qui a été. Ils reformulent, regardent autrement, proposent un “ce qui semble” mais qui n’est plus – ou qui est, différent. Ils repensent, recyclent, détournent, ennoblissent.

C’est là toute la puissance des Arts appliqués contemporains. Baignés dans les – lointaines – racines du fonctionnel, les artistes s’en libèrent ou s’en inspirent pour parfaire le monde, le questionner, le défier. Par la diversité de matières, de techniques, et le riche héritage des métiers d’Arts, c’est un univers vaste et en constante évolution qui s’offre au regard de tous.

Les artistes membres de BeCraft, issus de la Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles, démontrent ici des savoir-faire contemporains dans les domaines de la céramique, du verre, du textile, du bijou, du papier, jusqu’aux matériaux non-conventionnels.

Abstraites, organiques, subtiles, leurs œuvres exposées détournent pour mieux voir, réinventent pour mieux penser. 

Ils exposent : 

Myriam A. Goulet, Mylène Auquière, Studio Biskt, Aurore de Heusch, Chantal Delporte, Dolorès Gossye, Anne Goy, La Gadoue, Laure Kasiers, Machteld Lambeets, Anne Marie Laureys, Claire Lavendhomme, Jean-Claude Legrand, Myriam Louyest, Antonino Spoto, Nelly Van Oost et Clémentine Vaultier

Distorted Duets showcased the work of five contemporary photographers alongside sculptural works by Taste Contemporary gallery artists.

Since its establishment in 2012, Taste Contemporary has championed ceramic and glass art. In this exhibition, presented at the industrial setting of Fonderie Kugler, we introduced audiences familiar with each genre to the possibilities that exist within the others.
