Since the 1960s, J.D. ‘Okhai Ojeikere has been documenting the culture of his native Nigeria in exquisite black-and-white photographs, capturing the elegance and exuberance of its celebrations, ceremonies, and daily life. He has amassed thousands of images, which together form an anthropological and ethnographic record that is considered to be a national treasure. With his keen eye for composition and attention to detail, Ojeikere finds art everywhere, as he describes: “I always wanted to record moments of beauty, moments of knowledge. Art is life.” This approach fuels his ongoing “Hairstyles” project (begun 1968), an internationally celebrated visual taxonomy of the hairstyles and headdresses worn by Nigerian women, captured at close range, often from behind. For Ojeikere, these hairstyles—from scalp-hugging braids to stunning sculptural forms—are ephemeral works of art, a notion that his photographs clearly affirm.

Julee Cruise and Pluramon Live at Fondation Cartier
Tumblr media
PH Pan Dalan & Philippe Carini
David Lynch's exhibition The Air is on Fire was shown at Fondation Cartier from March 3 to May 27 2007 in Paris, France. Julee Cruise and Pluramon performed on Sunday May 20 at 9pm instead of 7.30pm because of weather conditions.

PH Mr Chisholm
From Fondation Cartier's website: These works are reassembled here in distinctive environments accompanied by pervading sounds, all conceived by the artist himself—a life-sized recreation of a drawing of a living room, fantastical spaces filled with large-scale curtained structures upon which his paintings are hung, and a mini-movie theatre inspired by Eraserhead. These spaces form a highly personal show that offers the viewer a unique opportunity to interact with a new side of Lynch’s vision in an environment that remains all his own. David Lynch’s paintings, photographs, and drawings reconstruct his childhood experiences, his adolescent fantasies, and his adult preoccupations. The recurring theme of the home, complete with its potentially sinister underbelly, is represented in dark paintings complete with cryptic messages and organic textures. Lynch’s outrageous sense of humor, however, is also present in the difficult issues that his paintings tackle, echoing the cutting comic relief found in even his most disconcerting film work. His photography also captures various moods and atmospheres, from sensual and dreamy to somber and troubling. The exhibition includes a program of events, live performances and concerts created by the artist.

discover and collect art from Damien Hirst’s iconic The Virtues series
Tumblr media
A celebratory depiction of blossoming cherry trees, Damien Hirst’s H9 The Virtues was inspired by trees remembered from his Devonshire childhood. As Japan’s national flower, the blossom also symbolises the Japanese values used to title the eight giclée prints: justice, courage, mercy, politeness, honesty, honour, loyalty, and control.

Fondation Cartier is slowly turning out to be one of my regular addresses during trips to the City of Light. I also visited an exhibition there last summer. I think this art museum has many assets. The building that houses the museum is architecturally quite interesting. It is constructed with a lot of steel and glass. At the back, the elevator on the outside of the building goes transparently to the higher floors, which you as a visitor to the museum cannot reach because there are offices there. The exhibition space is located on the ground floor and is bathed in daylight. Ideal for displaying art. The ceilings are high, the space is large and - not unimportant in corona times - this means there is never any crowding. The exhibition space continues to the basement. The building is located in a beautiful garden that is closed off from the hustle and bustle of the city on the street side by a large glass wall. For me, a visit to an exhibition in Fondation Cartier always includes a walk through this garden, followed by a drink on the terrace under the trees behind the building. When I enter the museum grounds through the gate around the garden, I am always full of admiration for the gigantic cedar that stands there. But this time it was an unpleasant surprise: the tree had disappeared and the remains of its huge trunk were scattered in pieces in the garden. I really hope that the tree was sick and there really was no choice but to cut it down. This time the exhibition space was taken up by large, colorful works by Damien Hirst. Not being a real art connoisseur, this name still rang a bell with me, but I honestly still don't know why. I know the name from somewhere, but I haven't been able to identify where yet. While Googling, I discovered a versatile artist: he makes installations and sculptures, but also paints and draws. Apparently (or so I read) his works regularly cause "unrest" and he is considered one of the most important contemporary artists. Through Google I discovered works with preserved animals including a shark and a golden calf, counterfeit supposedly unearthed treasures from sunken ships, a skull full of diamonds, … and all with long, apparently unrelated titles. To be honest, I couldn't/couldn't quite reconcile all that with the works that I saw exhibited in Fondation Cartier. The exhibition spaces were full of large works with cherry blossoms in fresh colors. The blossoms depicted by thick blobs of paint. The use of color and theme reminded me of Van Gogh's almond blossoms. So nothing controversial or disturbing. The paintings on display in Paris are a small selection of a collection of 107 paintings with the same theme. They are exhibited together for the first and last time because they will all end up in different places. In that sense, and also given that it is the first time that this artist has exhibited in Paris, this exhibition is unique. But although the works may be beautiful and fresh and fruity, I must be honest and say that for me they are all too similar to be able to speak of a truly fascinating exhibition. Do you want to go there too? That's still possible

Wendy Red Star | Last Thanks. 2006
Wendy Red Star is an Apsáalooke contemporary multimedia artist born in Billings, Montana, in the United States. Her humorous approach and use of Native American images from traditional media draw the viewer into her work, while also confronting romanticized representations.
Using materials like Target-brand Halloween costumes and inflatable animals, Red Star counters the stereotypical trope that all Native American people are "one with nature."
Red Star has exhibited in the United States and abroad at venues including the Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York, NY), Brooklyn Museum (Brooklyn, NY), both of which have her works in their permanent collections; Fondation Cartier pour l’Art Contemporain (Paris, France), Domaine de Kerguéhennec (Bignan, France), Portland Art Museum (Portland, OR), Hood Art Museum (Hanover, NH), St. Louis Art Museum (St. Louis, MO), Minneapolis Institute of Art (Minneapolis, MN), the Frost Art Museum (Miami, FL), among others.
