Catch Vivian Suter’s Latest Exhibition In N\u00eemes, France<\/h1>\n\n\n

Leaves, raindrops, pawprints. Any of those may appear in paintings by Swiss-Argentine abstractionist Vivian Suter, the latter inspiring the title of her current exhibition at Carr\u00e9 d\u2019Art\u2013Mus\u00e9e d\u2019art contemporain<\/a> in N\u00eemes, France: \u201cDisco,\u201d the name of the 76-year-old artist\u2019s youngest dog. This presentation is the third and last stop after the Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology in Lisbon, Portugal, and the Palais de Tokyo in Paris, and encompasses some 400 paintings filling all areas of the museum, from traditional galleries to its monumental staircase, plus 40 small collages by Elisabeth Wild, Suter\u2019s mom who lived with her in her Panajachel, Guatemala, home until Wild\u2019s death in 2020 at age 98. Suter paints and temporarily stores her work outside; after some had been warped and muddied by Hurricane Stan in 2005, instead of cleaning them, \u201cI saw beauty,\u201d she recalls. \u201cMy practice changed with this consciousness.\u201d (Inclusion of Disco\u2019s pawprints is part of that change.) Curator H\u00e9l\u00e8ne Audiffren concurs: \u201cMade with and within nature, Vivian\u2019s paintings are very contemporary, resonating with current environmental concerns. Furthermore, her hundreds of works uniquely interact with the museum\u2019s modern architecture,\u201d completed in 1993 by Foster + Partners. Another feature of the colorful pieces, which don\u2019t have titles or dates, is that they can be hung in any direction, a flexibility and an individuality appreciated by such firms as Studio Collins Weir, which sourced Suter artwork in a recent residential commission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
