PARIS: Bourse de Commerce - Pinault Collection

Céleste Boursier- Mougeno (FR, 1961) transformed the rotunda of the into a multi-sensual installation that is purely analog, as both the sound and movements are created by the free floating of the ceramic bowls drifting casually in the aquatic blue water basin.

The installation “clinamen” creates an enchanting stage and contemplative atmosphere, where visitors are automatically drawn to linger, to watch, or even to contemplate.

The installation has brilliantly illustrated the Epicurean philosophy of “clinamen”, which refers to the unpredictable and slight deviation of atoms.

2. Fabrice Hyber (* 1961, in Luçon, FR)

Fabrice’s paintings have a very rare and organic aesthetic coupled with a metaphysical undertone. His work refuses to fit into the typical genre of figurative, or landscape, or abstract, or naïve, or pop, and seems to have carved out a unique genre of its own.

The themes of his many paintings surround nature, people, and their intricate relationships. Some paintings are akin to scientific drawings, as if to explain certain processes and findings of scientific experiments.

What captures me in his paintings is how unpretentious yet powerful they are: the seemingly casually drawn, yet very firm lines and scribbles; the very simple, yet eye-catching color combination, and the very simple composition to tell rather big stories.

The Artist
Fabrice Hyber has already made his name back in 1997, when he became one of the youngest Golden Lion recipients at the 47th Venice Biennial. He held solo shows in many prestigious institutions both in France and abroad,  among others: Musée d’Art Moderne in Paris (2002), Musée de Herzliya in Tel Aviv (2006), Musée d’Art contemporain Watari-Um in Tokyo (2008), Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain in Paris (2022). His works have been collected by numerous museums around the world.

Let's wrap up 2024 with some of my picks for this year!
1. Kimiyo Mishima (1932-2024)

I discovered Kimiyo's brilliant (and cheeky) ceramic sculptures at Art Basel HK this year. It was genuinely the most refreshing work in the whole fair!

Original, sacarstically upbeat, meticulously hand-crafted. I thought those “everyday item” sculptures were made by some young, hip, western artists. But NO! When I found out the sculptures were made by a 91-year old female Japanese artist! I was even more in love with the works!

This b**r basket piece was priced only at US$ 40.000 back in March (I knew it was a rare find!). So, I immediately informed a German collector whom I know would be a great fit for the piece! Too bad for him. He didn’t act quickly enough. This piece was gone in the next hour! I am sure it will cost at least double next time we see it on the secondary market! (Remember, quality works don’t wait!)

The Artist
*Kimiyo Mishima* produced paintings, collages, photography, ceramic and installations. But she was most well-known with her ceramic sculptures, which reference to our information society and consumer culture: newspapers, magazines, advertising flyers, empty b**r cans, cardboard boxes, and other discarded objects. Mishima passed away in June 2024 at the age of 91.
