Visite d’atelier avec Bernard Tullen

Centre de la photographie Genève, Focale Galerie-Librairie

Date & time

24 September 2024

18:00–19:30

Venue

Centre de la photographie Genève

Bernard Tullen, Hydrangea, 2023-24

Centre de la photographie Genève and Focale are teaming up for two exceptional artist studio visits. Bernard Tullen, an artist based in Geneva, uses photography as well as painting and drawing, in a complex and delicate body of work that has been exploring the fluxes that cross territories for several years.

Bernard Tullen is a Geneva-based artist who trained as a painter at the Ecole Supérieure d’Art Visuels de Genève (now HEAD). At the beginning of his career, Tullen was intrigued by how images constitute an instrument of our knowledge of the world. Using mainly press images, he collected, enlarged, scanned or revealed their frames – revealing certain illusionary mechanisms.

 

Borrowing investigation methods from photographers, he takes a subjective look at the life of George Montandon, a controversial Swiss figure. The result of this research is a mixture of paintings, drawings, photographs printed on lead and cyanotypes.

 

He is currently interested in the fluxes that cross territories (movements of people, water, air, energy, matter and even information). Through various projects, he explores the different scales of time and movement that coexist in the world. On the one hand, slow geological processes, such as the movement of glaciers, erosion and landslides, and the slow migration of plant species in response to climate change, transform landscapes. On the other hand, phenomena on a subatomic scale, such as the movement of neutrinos at speeds close to the speed of light, are a reminder of the existence of a universe where physical laws take on an almost abstract dimension. Walking, as a mode of travel, occupies a median position, linking these temporalities. It offers a way of apprehending the territory on a human scale.

 

Bernard Tullen’s work has been shown in numerous exhibitions in Switzerland, Germany, France and Belgium, including at ISELP in Brussels, Galerie Triangle Bleu, Stavelot, Raum für Kunst in Aachen, Art Brussels, Galerie Deplhine Courtay, Strasbourg and Galerie Michel Föex, Geneva.

 

Registration required, places are limited. The address of the studio will be given by email to the participants.
