\nDuring her three-month residency at the CIAP Centre International d\u2019Art et du Paysage (\u00cele de Vassivi\u00e8re, France), Indian artist Hemali Bhuta focused on\u00a0mining, and\u00a0more specifically on gold mining, in the region of Limousin. The exhibition will present the outcome of her residency.
\nThe artist is\u00a0most famous for Speed Breakers<\/em> (2012), an installation at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park (United Kingdom). This remarkable work is composed of several bronze castings of beech trees discreetly installed on the trail, directly on the ground, sometime hidden under the leaves and snow.

Whiteout<\/i><\/span><\/strong><\/a>
\n<\/span>Erwin Redl
\n<\/span>Madison Square Park, New York (United States)
\n<\/span>Until\u00a0March 25th, 2018
\nFor the past few weeks, two carpets of lights have been catching the attention of the passersby in Madison Square Park. Whiteout<\/em> is an installation composed of nine hundred white LED light spheres created by Austrian artist Erwin Redl. The bulbs, which are aligned and suspended to a low steel structure, form two stretches of light that move according to an algorithm. The kinetic patterns run in sequences, evocating a world in between dreams and reality.
\nThis installation will be displayed during the whole winter, until the end of March.<\/p>\n
