The sculptor ARMAN moves to the Signoria, Calvi
An exceptional provenance for the ARMAN exhibition, in the heart of the artist's studio
The visual artist ARMAN is exhibited in Corsica in the summer of 2023 by the Alexis Pentcheff Gallery. It is another great name that invests, this year again, the space of the hotel La Signoria in Calvi. True to its partnership with the Relais et Châteaux La Signoria hotel, the gallery is very pleased to present more than forty works by the artist, directly from his studio and for some, which have rarely been exhibited. For the summer season, the exhibition continues at the luxurious Hotel Kasano, a new Calvados establishment near the Citadel, under the management of the Ceccaldi family.
It is directly from Corice Arman, who shared the artist's life since the late 70s, when they met, that the gallery was able to choose the beautiful pieces that make up this exhibition at La Signoria. The artist's widow enthusiastically welcomed this exhibition project and was able to make available to us some of the artist's major pieces, such as the impressive sculpture, Head of David II, created in 2001. This is a new opportunity to show Arman's prolific work in the magnificent setting of this place.
Emblematic works of the artist, bronzes, compressions, concrete...
This exhibition at La Signoria offers a panel of works very representative of all the recurring themes that have, for years, inhabited the creations of Arman. We find several series that have contributed to his fame such as his marble sculptures, his bronzes with the famous cut violins or his destructured Venus or his accumulations with the works Traffic Jam and Traffic blocked.
All these works can be found in the gardens and in the heart of the Hotel La Signoria and the Hotel Kasano in Calvi, which will be delighted to welcome you to the Arman exhibition from May 13 to October 31, 2023.
