Urbanitude:  James Rossant and Matthieu Exposito, at The Box in Paris

A cityscape by  James Rossant

    Recent Shows

  • "Urbanitude: James Rossant and Matthieu Exposito"

    Venue: The Box in Paris: Maison d'Art Contemporain

    Opening: March 10, 2009 (through April 25, 2009)

    Description: Third of a series dedicated to urban space at The Box in Paris, with drawings and paintings. Two generations of artists present their perceptions of "urban": cities, their legends, and their occupants. The two are different yet complementary. After more than 40 years as architect, town planner, and plastics technician, James Rossant delivers a comprehensive view, conceptual and dynamic, of the city -- imaginary projections of cities (inspired sometimes by real places) that he projects or crunches into three-dimensional suspensions.
