On the 16th of February, Zaratan -Arte Contemporânea is pleased to invite you to the opening of Endlesscolumn, an exhibition by Cécile Mestelan who is presenting a series of new sculptures, especially design for this solo show.
Searching for highness and following her taste for geometric aesthetic, the artist encounters the idea of Constantin Brancusi ”Endless Column” and decides to explore it through a process of deconstruction. By dismantling the geometric superposition of shapes, we assist to the attempt of unstructured the infinite column. After the destruction has take place, the various shapes and modules that compose the column become the broken memory of a symbol, showing that we cannot reach the endless but at least we’ll try to get closer until it falls.
