B-Side is a project located in the window of the rue de Crussol. On the edge of our programme, the gallery invites an artist with a remarkable body of work to create a dialogue with our current exhibition.
Maxime Duveau
Born in 1992 in Thouars (79)
Lives and works in Paris
If it's not always easy to decipher what Maxime Duveau's images show at first glance, it's because they involve all sorts of interweaving of referential motifs, extracted from a photographic base that he has built up over time. His art is not a narrative, but an imbroglio of images in which memories of a road movie in California, views of Conflans-Sainte-Honorine and shots from his exhibitions collide. The very matter of his images stems as much from the idea of texture - a term that the artist himself likes to use - as from that of mental Braille, insofar as it involves a process of mixed reminiscences for the purpose of instituting a language of his own that signs him.
