\n<\/span>Richard Long<\/span>
\n<\/span>Houghton Hall (Norfolk, eastern England)<\/span>
\n<\/span>Until October 26th, 2017
\n<\/span>Already present in the castle\u2019s sculpture garden with Full\u00a0Moon Circle <\/i>(2003), Richard Long is back in Houghton Hall with the exhibition Earth Sky<\/i>. Still using material found on site, Long created a new series of site specific works made of kaolin, tree roots, stones and slate, evocative of primitive shapes such as spirals, crosses, lines or circles.<\/p>\n

\n<\/span><\/a><\/span>Les filles du calvaire Gallery (Paris, France)<\/span>
\n<\/span>Exhibition open July 1st to July 29th, 2017
\n<\/span>American anthropologist Eduardo Kohn\u2019s essay How Forests Think <\/i>was released in France at the end of February. It quickly became a reference in the field of anthropology, a science that studies the human being and now, thanks to this text, the non-human. This text inspired Lucie Touya, exhibition curator of \u201c\u00c0 quoi r\u00eavent les for\u00eats?\u201d<\/i> (What Forests Dream?) to enter the depths of forests through the visions of seven contemporary artists (Fran\u00e7ois Fleury, No\u00e9mie Goudal, Jean-Yves Leloup, Kettly No\u00ebl, Laura Huertas Mill\u00e1n, Olya Kroytor, Susana Mejia).<\/p>\n

Some Time<\/a><\/span><\/strong>
\n<\/span>Richard Deacon
\n<\/span>Until September 2017
\nMiddleheim Museum (Antwerp, Belgium)
\nIn 1993, Antwerp was designated European Capital of Culture. In this context, the Middleheim Museum decided to add more contemporary work to its collection. Richard Deacon\u2019s sculpture Never Mind<\/i> (1993) was purchased that same year and symbolized the museum\u2019s new vision. Twenty-four years later, the artist, rather than restoring the work, decided to recreate it from scratch by using different materials. Never Mind<\/i> is the highlight of the exhibition but about thirty other works are on display inside and outside the museum\u2019s pavilions. This is a wonderful opportunity to discover the work of this British artist who considers himself as a \u00ab\u00a0maker\u00a0\u00bb rather than as a sculptor.<\/p>\n
