Grove Evacuation, Ethan Murrow, The Girls of Calvary, 2021
The artist, born on a farm in Fermont, recharged his batteries during the pandemic, in his garden, under the trees. Then inspiration came to him.
These works feature him with the head of a bouquet of flowers or a tree and exploit the relationship between man and tool. Magritte's influence is undeniable in the paintings where the man is balanced on a pile of books or engaged in a surrealist duet with a sheep as in "The Passage".

There is magic in the air, farmers offer flowers to rain spirits or dance for abundance and fertility. It's happy and festive.
Until November 25, 2023

CURRENT EXHIBITIONS A MUST SEE
Susumu Shingu, praise of slowness
At the Jeanne Bucher Jaeger gallery, a century-old space at the bottom of a courtyard, around thirty drawings and kinetic sculptures, moving works by the Japanese artist Susumu Shingu, are displayed. It was a trend in vogue in the 1950s, led by artists such as the Athenian Takis or the Brazilian Soto.
Marilyn forever
Sixty years after her death, Marilyn still embodies the eternal feminine. In the heart of the Marais, Joseph gallery, the Monroe Experience offers a digital and poetic exhibition until November 21, to better understand the myth and the woman, a start-up before her time, entrepreneur and modern for the time (sexual freedom , psychoanalysis etc.).
Peter Bond, the wandering painter
There is something of David Hockney in this painter who, like his illustrious elder, illuminates the world with colors. But, as we know, the Englishman is unaffordable – he is the most popular living artist in the world – while the Australian sells for between 1 and 000 euros depending on the format, at the Gratadou gallery…
NOW ON THE MOOD MARSH
The best tattoo parlors in Marais
Tattooing, an age-old practice, has long been the prerogative of convicts, dock workers, the underworld and sailors. Although it has become democratized, now affecting all profiles and concerning one in five French people, including 16% women compared to 10% men, it still remains taboo due to its definitive and transgressive nature.
Juliette Drouet actress, muse and mistress of Victor Hugo
At 14 rue Sainte-Anastase, from 1836 to 45 and at 12 from 1845 to 48, a few hundred meters from Place des Vosges, lived the muse and lover of Victor Hugo, Juliette Drouet née Julienne Gauvain.
Piccola Mia, the pizzas of the Republic
On the Place de la République, a brasserie with Italian accents has just opened, which quickly made people forget the old Pizza Pino. Welcome to Piccola Mia, the fruit of the joyful encounter between Italian chef Denny Imbroisi, pizza chef Julien Serri and mixologist Matthias Giroud who creates a creative cocktail menu.
