Gilgian Gelzer Exhibition at Musée des beaux-arts de Caen Features Drawings and Photographs
Gilgian Gelzer's exhibition at the Musée des beaux-arts de Caen ran from March 23 to September 1, 2019, showcasing a selection of drawings, photographs, and prints created between 2008 and 2018. In an interview conducted within the exhibition, Gelzer described drawing as an 'emission' and photography as a 'capture,' reflecting on concepts like the 'pure gesture,' the experience of drawing, and the relationship to the body. The artist also discussed his parallel practice in photography. Following this presentation, the Galerie Jean Fournier in Paris will host a solo exhibition titled 'A Light Year Away' from September 12 to November 9, 2019.
