Comme un Ananas @ Galerie des Galeries – Paris

04/04/2012 @ 8:00 am - 07/06/2012 @ 5:00 pm

free

For those of you (most non-Frenchies) who don’t know anything about Philippe Katerine, visiting his latest exhibition @ Galerie de Galeries (Lafayette) may not be the best way to get started, or to enter the Katerineverse. He’s a real big shot, probably the most unclassifiable contemporary French artist. He’s a singer, mainly, but also an actor, a great dancer (right?), illustrator and we just discovered in this exhibition his sculpting facet.

“Comme un ananas” (like a pineapple) is however an interesting way to discover Katerine’s other talents. An exhibition organized in 4 main layers that go from his politicians & celebrities drawings to that sort of sculpture-fountain which you seriously need to discover. Add a dark room and one last slice of post-it images and you’ll get that other obsession from the “multiobsessed” French artist. Is there something he’s not into?

Maybe not the best exhibition in Paris… but it’s free, funny and one another surprise from Mr K. You have until July 7th, more info this way.
