Huguette Caland: Les années parisiennes (1970-1987)

November 14, 2024 - January 25, 2025
Huguette Caland

WHAT
The late Lebanese painter and sculptor (1931-2019) was a pioneering figure in Lebanon’s Golden 60s, and is celebrated for her bold, fluid, and experimental approach to art. The exhibition focuses on her most significant works from the 1970s to 1980s, including paintings, drawings, and sculptures, with a special emphasis on her ‘Bribes de corps’ series. The show brings together nearly 50 major pieces, offering a rare glimpse into her dynamic creative journey.

WHY
The exhibition is an essential rediscovery of innovative artistry, offering a fresh perspective on the artist’s playful yet profound exploration of the body, identity, and abstraction. It invites audiences to engage with works that resonate powerfully with contemporary themes, highlighting a complexity and boldness extending beyond the Lebanese art scene. The exhibition is complemented by a talk at Mennour in January 2025, and a book edited by Sylvie Patry and Léo Rivaud Chevaillier.
