Keith Tyson's Generous and Paradoxical Exhibition at Galerie Vallois
British artist Keith Tyson presents a generous and paradoxical exhibition at Galerie G.-Ph. et N. Vallois in Paris, running from June 9 to July 31, 2006. The show is titled "La Somme de Tous les Chemins Possibles" (The Sum of All Possible Paths), a programmatic yet contradictory statement given that Tyson won the Turner Prize four years earlier. Rather than offering a retrospective or a conclusive overview, Tyson avoids providing keys to his work, stating that explaining the origin of a piece would require explaining the origin of the entire universe. In his artistic world, everything is possible yet everything could be different. The exhibition features a wide range of media, primarily painting, but also drawing, sculpture, and installations.
