In a series of photographs taken while on the road to Hetzler | Marfa in December 2022, artist duo Tursic & Mille capture the vast, fascinating and cinematic landscape of Southern Texas, from Marfa to the Chihuahuan desert. Alongside these special photographs, the artists’ own words further evoke their journey.

Works by Darren Almond, Giulia Andreani, Jeremy Demester, Tursic & Mille and Christopher Wool will be on view in the exhibition The Inner Island, curated by Jean-Marie Gallais. Inspired by the insular location of the Fondation Carmignac’s villa on Porquerolles, a remote island off the French Mediterranean coast in the region of the Côte d’Azur, the exhibition explores the notion of interiority as a powerful driver of creation. Floating outside of known geographies and temporalities, the artists included in this exhibition populate their images with strange and foreign presences – human, animal, hybrid, or supernatural. The result is a distance from reality which encourages an immersion into inner worlds and recesses, giving rise to fictional, mental, or abstract islands. 

Villa Carmignac

Artist duo Tursic & Mille’s painting Jeune fille vidant le contenu de son contenant, 2021, is currently on view in the group exhibition Immortelle. Bringing together emblematic artists of the French scene born in the 1970s and 80s, the exhibition presents an ambitious panorama of contemporary French figurative painting and revisits genres from history painting to portraiture, landscape, and still life. Tursic & Mille’s work renews classical portraiture by depicting a young woman, dressed in rococo–style clothing, who spills the contents of a contemporary beer bottle.

Giulia Andreani’s large-scale tapestry La Jeune et la Vieille Sorcières, 2020, and a painted engraving by Tursic & Mille, will be on view in Of their time (7) – A look at private collections at the FRAC Grand Large. The exhibition considers interrelated themes which question the nature of the collection itself, its visions of art and society and its relationship  to public institutions. The works on view, representing 111 artists and artists’ collectives as well as 58 private lenders, suggest different ways of relating to our environment and revisit forgotten aspects of art history.
