Arnaud Quercy Presents “Harmonic Crossing” at Les Magnolias Restaurant
From September 3 to November 3, 2024, Arnaud Quercy presented "Harmonic Crossing" at Les Magnolias restaurant. The collection of 23 works begins from musical chords: a rule set in advance assigns a colour to every pitch, and each canvas is that rule carried out. Nothing crosses from the music to the painting — what passes between them is the rule itself, executed twice in two materials with nothing in common.
Paris, France, September 08, 2024 --(PR.com)-- From September 3 to November 3, 2024, Parisian artist Arnaud Quercy showed his collection "Harmonic Crossing" at Les Magnolias restaurant in Le Perreux-sur-Marne.
The exhibition presented 23 original works. Each canvas begins from a musical chord: a rule set in advance assigns a colour to every pitch, and the painting is that rule carried out to the end. Nothing crosses from the music to the canvas — a chord and a canvas have no common content; what passes between them is the rule itself, executed twice in two materials with nothing in common.
"The rule is declared before the first mark. What the painting then does to you is not mine to decide," says Quercy.
Les Magnolias, recognised by Michelin and Gault & Millau, hosted the collection across its dining rooms for two months.
Location: Les Magnolias, 48 Avenue de Bry, Le Perreux-sur-Marne
Dates: September 3 – November 3, 2024
About Arnaud Quercy
Arnaud Quercy works in the abstraction of ideas: not the visible world, but whatever in an idea can be extracted, made into a rule, then executed in a material that has nothing to do with it. The rule is set in advance and held to the end; what interests him is the gap between what it prescribed and what appears. Hence a deliberately dispersed practice — painting, sculpture, ceramics, sand, poetry, music, digital image — where the medium is not a choice but a consequence. The work continues under the name Ideamorphism, a practice-led inquiry made public at ideamorphism.org
