LAURENT ASKIENAZY : UTOPIA
Exhibition from August 14 to September 3, 2024
Galerie Tournemine, La Baule
"Utopia" is a chimerical voyage on the uncertain frontier of photography, painting and digital image. French photographer Laurent Askienazy interweaves his enigmatic, sensual and poisonous visions in atmospheres with a delicately surrealist accent.
​
Thomas Tournemine is delighted to welcome the artist's first solo show at the gallery. A selection of 16 works is offered exclusively and in limited edition.
MARIUS MESSINESE, LIMINAL SPACE
Exhibition from July 24 to August 13, 2024
Meeting with the artist on August 10 & 11
Galerie Tournemine, La Baule
This summer, Thomas Tournemine is delighted to welcome a new solo exhibition by Marius Messinese. Through his canvases, the young artist from Marseilles tirelessly explores the “liminal spaces”, those empty places still inhabited by human presence. Transitory states where time seems frozen.
Beyond the pure, attractive aesthetics that emerge, these deserted places carry a certain ambivalence. In this way, Marius Messinese suggests that, behind appearances, things may not be as simple as we think...
BERGSTEIN / CAILLARD : CONTORTIONS
Exhibition from July 6 to 23, 2024
Galerie Tournemine, La Baule
To inaugurate the summer season, Thomas Tournemine proposes a dialogue between two young French artists on the study of the body and its dynamics. From the undulating marble busts of Léo Caillard (b. 1985) to the elastic silhouettes of Bergstein (b. 1988), flesh is stretched, distended, put to the test of opposing forces to celebrate all its plastic beauty.
VEGETABLE KINGDOM
Exhibition from June 4 to July 4, 2024
Galerie Tournemine, La Baule
Since April, Tournemine Gallery has been offering its artists a second space dedicated exclusively to solo or thematic exhibitions. A “white cube” allowing total immersion in a single universe, resulting in a multiplied experience. Following on from the solo shows by Marius Messinese and Julie Susset, now it's time for “Vegetable kingdom”, a thematic exhibition that takes a close look at those all-powerful yet discreet beings that are plants and trees. With recents works by Federico Fiorentini, Julie Susset, Marius Messinese, Aline Zalko and Étienne Viard.
JULIE SUSSET : WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE
Exhibition from May 7 to June 2, 2024
Galerie Tournemine, La Baule
This spring, Tournemine Gallery entrusts Julie Susset with the keys to its new space dedicated to solo exhibitions. "Welcome to the jungle" is an immersion into the mental jungle of an artist who craves freedom, using her fingers, hands, forearms and whole body in movement to paint fantasized, intoxicating and ferocious landscapes on canvas. A exalted return to the origins of life, between and primitivism and oneirism.

This summer, Parisian artist Aline Zalko presents her very first solo show at Galerie Thomas Tournemine. "Into the wild" is a cry to the wilderness. Exuberant, enveloping, sometimes threatening. The colors are fierce, saturated, the forests blazing under her line, which she wants to be fluid, serpentine, undulating like the flames.

LÉO CAILLARD AT DALI PARIS MUSEUM
From June 9 to September 26, 2021
Dali Paris - 11 rue Poulbot, 75018 Paris
By inviting Léo Caillard, whose work has been noticed by the transformation of ancient statues into hipsters, Dali Paris initiates a dialogue on the ancient heritage and the way it endures through the centuries.
The disguise of these divinities, this interference of modernity in the ideal of Platonic beauty, would they not aim, as the obsession of the form in Dali, to counter the attacks of time and overcome death, by achieving immortality through art ?
