ArTchipel: 9 female artists, Paris exhibition


 

Nine women artists from the ArTchipel collective are exhibiting their artworks in the Paris town hall of the 6th arrondissement from 14 December 2024 to 13 January 2025. The exhibition includes paintings and sculptures.

 

The themes for the collective exhibition are: eight islands, eight planets, eight universes – to ”affirm the parallel worlds, underground or celestial, which beat, sing and only ask for our listening to make a symphony.

 

The 9 female artists are: Cyb, Maÿlis de Chambure, Ange Debroise, Tat Duvillier, Marie-Astrid Grivet, Emilie Riggs, Claire Sevaux, Alessandra Solima, and Catherine Webb.

 

Cyb calls her pictorial approach "Insurrection of Colour" and says, "Colour is what pushes the limit, what finds space and convulses time." Maÿlis de Chambure’s creations suggest escape, inviting the viewer to “wander and get lost in the twists and turns of interpretation.” Ange Debroise says, “At the beginning, there is the eye that tracks and absorbs the world. Then comes the need to transcribe, to keep a trace of what has been seen.” Tat Duvillier’s paintings are joyful – “like a mason,” she says “she mixes matter and colours, and covers them to discover ...”

 

Marie-Astrid Grivet would like her paintings to lead the observer to escape, calmly, by looking at each part of the painting in a unified way. Emilie Riggs gives trees central place in her collection “Crossing the Shadows.” Claire Sevaux says she captures scenes taken on the spot with the intention of transmitting psychological moments and emotion. Alessandra Solima says the subject of her paintings, “if one appears, is often random and accidental,” as it imposes itself on her and dictates a path to her. Catherine Webb says her artworks “combine structural plans and volumes in a harmonious search for architectural strength.”

Flaws in the Glass, a self-portrait by Patrick White: book review

The manuscript, Flaws in the Glass (1981), is Patrick Victor Martindale White’s autobiography. White, born in 1912 in England, migrated to Sydney, Australia, when he was six months old. For three years, at the age of 20, he studied French and German literature at King’s College at the University of Cambridge in England. Throughout his life, he published 12 novels. In 1957 he won the inaugural Miles Franklin Literary Award for Voss, published in 1956. In 1961, Riders in the Chariot became a best-seller, winning the Miles Franklin Literary Award. In 1973, he was the first Australian author to be awarded the Nobel Prize for Literature for The Eye of the Storm, despite many critics describing his works as ‘un-Australian’ and himself as ‘Australia’s most unreadable novelist.’ In 1979, The Twyborn Affair was short-listed for the Booker Prize, but he withdrew it from the competition to give younger writers the opportunity to win the award. His autobiography, Flaws in the Glass...

Sister cities discussed: Canberra and Islamabad

Two months ago, in March 2015, Australia and Pakistan agreed to explore ways to deepen ties. The relationship between Australia and Pakistan has been strong for decades, and the two countries continue to keep dialogues open. The annual bilateral discussions were held in Australia in March to continue engagements on a wide range of matters of mutual interest. The Pakistan delegation discussed points of interest will include sports, agriculture, economic growth, trade, border protection, business, and education. The possible twinning of the cities of Canberra, the capital of Australia, and Islamabad, the capital of Pakistan, were also on the agenda (i.e. called twin towns or sister cities). Sister City relationships are twinning arrangements that build friendships as well as government, business, culture, and community linkages. Canberra currently has international Sister City relationships with Beijing in China and Nara in Japan. One example of existing...
