The first group show at Galerie Jeanroch Dard, Scales of the universe, the definition of the frontier is a reflection on the permeability of boundaries, whether they be geographic, organic, relational or spiritual. By manipulating this system of categorisation, the artists' various proposals contribute to a global and original perception of the universe, inspired by principles of cosmology. The idea is hence to take two genres to create a third one, original, and to question its interest. This operation takes concrete form mainly through 2 axes: hybridisation (for example, confronting and assembling vegetal and mineral elements, chemistry and spirituality) and playing on scale (macro/micro). Nevermind whether these new territories are absurd or pertinent, the demonstration of their existence alone (because to evoke them is to make them real) puts in jeopardy the complete system of compartmentalising through frontiers. Thus, by destroying the criteria of that separate, Scales of the universe, the definition of the frontier puts forth the principle of co-existence. The Universe is a whole where each element, whatever its movement, has its place. Graduating from Metz School of Fine-Arts in 2003, Justin Morin has developped in parallel to his work as an artist the itinerant and ephemeral curatorial project "Galerie Justin Morin", a reflexion on the artist/galerist relationship. Scales of the universe, the definition of the frontier is his first exhibit as guest curator for Galerie Jeanroch Dard. DOWNLOAD PDF
