Henrique Oliveira's Contamination of the White Cube at Galerie Vallois

exhibition · 2026-04-24

Henrique Oliveira's solo exhibition at Galerie Georges-Philippe et Nathalie Vallois in Paris, running from October 19 to November 28, 2015, continues his exploration of contaminating the white cube space. The show features works that reactivate the combine painting technique, building on his earlier installation 'L'Origine du troisième monde' (2009) presented at the Mercosul Biennial. Oliveira's practice involves integrating organic materials and architectural interventions to challenge the sterile gallery environment.
