Upcoming Show: "Étalage" by Palefroi

  “Étalage: stand, stall, barrow, display, window display,  showcase, showing off,  spreading out, falling flat on one’s face / on the floor”   Urban Spree Galerie invites the Berlin-based French artistic duo Palefroi for a month-long residency in our Berlin studio during the month of July, which culminates in a month-long solo show opening on Friday, August 3rd. Damien Tran and Marion Jdanoff are two French artists currently based in Berlin. Their visual work as a duo is a constant negociation between their respective approaches.. One is formal and abstract, the other narrative and figurative. They are attached to a form of harshness in the lines, to generous proliferation, to spontaneity and wonkiness. Palefroi is a framework embracing all of their practices: printmaking, self publishing, painting and animated drawings. It is a space of experimentation and collaboration but also a structure supporting both their work as a duo and as individuals. Following Palefroi’s residency at Urban Spree in July 2018, their solo exhibition Étalage should consist of: wolves, people playing trumpets, a fake tiger, dancing dots, drums solo and wallpapers.   Palefroi: “Etalage” Art Residency + Solo Show Urban Spree Galerie Vernissage: Friday 03.08.2018 at 19:00 Exhibition: 04.08.2018 – 02.09.2018 Tu-Su / 12:00-19:00 Info: galerie@urbanspree.com http://palefroi.net https://www.instagram.com/palefroi/
