Clement Valla

XPO gallery is hosting a new exhibition titled Oxi More On at Espace Verney-Carron, opening at the Lyons art space on September 8.

George and Archibald Verney-Carron let xpo gallery take over with a new exhibition featuring Angelo Plessas, Pierre Clément, Julieta Aranda, Aram Bartholl, Vincent Broquaire, Grégory Chatonsky, Sara Ludy, Paul Souviron, Katie Torn and Clément Valla.

The exhibition, curated by Alexis Jakubowicz and Philippe Riss, is caught in the fiction of a long-sacrificed miracle, somewhere between “torpor and life”, inspired by a poem by Charles Baudelaire, a famous painting by Watteau, and “the eternal residence of love”.

See the exhibition page for details. **

New York’s TRANSFER and Paris’ XPO galleries are coming together to “bring a transatlantic group of artists to an international collector base”.

As two organisations joining the slow swell of people and collectives looking to monetise and thus make a living for artists working in the digital realm, the partnership “represents a new collaborative mode of support for artists engaging the possibilities and contradictions of our contemporary moment”.

They’ll be initiating the partnership with Brooklyn-based artist Clement Valla‘s Surface Survey exhibition, opening at TRANSFER April 19 and running to May 10, to be followed up by a new one at XPO Gallery next year.
