It’s on a random bike ride that we came across the art gallery Lavo//Matik. We’d heard about it a while ago but had not had the chance or the time (or a bit of both) to visit and say hi! So on a sunny Monday, we decided to head to the 13th to take a look at this gallery and discover what’s on at the moment…
Lavo//Matik is currently exhibiting a mix of art pieces from various artists – that they called “Murs Ouverts” in French or Open Walls as it would be in English. It means that the gallery’s walls are opened and dedicated to showcase a maximum of art pieces between 2 solo shows for example. We really appreciated the visit and the (re)discovery of the artwork of artists we already know. It’s actually the 15th edition of this exhibition since the gallery opened a couple of years ago. Time flies…
On Friday the 17th of September, it’s gonna be the 16th edition and therefore new artists and art pieces will be exhibited. Take a look as even outside there’s an open air gallery!
Inside, as well as the current exhibition, you can find a lovely arty boutique where you can buy some books (huge collection), some vinyls (rock and punk), tees, postcards and stickers, … and much more!
Please note the 27th of August in your agenda as a new solo show of Gregos is planned!
The exhibition is called « La Tête au Carré » – opening night planned on Saturday 27th of August from 5pm.
If you don’t know (yet) GREGOS, I invite you to read the interview we did a few years ago available here to know more about this talented Parisian artist.
Today, a thousand of his faces have been pasted throughout the world and mostly in Paris, where he lives.
More info on his personal website here: www.gregosart.com
He is feeling very well after his NYC visit where he pasted a hundred of his faces on the city walls.
