Car la figure de ce monde passe: Farah Khelil
Past exhibition
Overview
lilia ben salah gallery presents For the Fashion of this World Passeth Away[1] [Car la figure de ce monde passe], a solo exhibition by artist Farah Khelil accompanied by curator and art critic Andréanne Béguin.
Conceived as an echo, between the image demonstration and its elaboration, the exhibition unveils new works while building on the artist's ongoing conceptual practice through formal and visual experiments. Farah Khelil embarks us in the making process of an image, intimate and cultural, mental and pictorial. We enter it from the landscape, which the artist deconstructs, distills, covers, obliterates to better liberate it through painting.
With the support of the Centre National des Arts Plastiques to the galleries/exhibition.
[1]“But this I say, brethren, the time is shortened, that henceforth both those that have wives may be as though they had none; and those that weep, as though they wept not; and those that rejoice, as though they rejoiced not; and those that buy, as though they possessed not; and those that use the world, as not abusing it: for the fashion of this world passeth away.” Paul Apostle, quoted by Giorgio Agamben in The Time That Remains: A Commentary on the Letter to the Romans, translated by Patricia Dailey, Stanford University Press, 2005.
