SAINT-PAUL DE VENCE – De Buck Gallery is pleased to announce that Opulent Landscapes, curated by Rachel D. Vancelette, will be traveling to Saint-Paul de Vence, France, for the summer launch of our project space. The exhibition will be on view by appointment only from June 24 through September 10, 2017 with an invitation-only opening reception on Saturday, June 24 from 17:00h – 20:00h.
Opulent Landscapes presents several exceptional artists who will examine themes related to dream-like realities and alternative architectural spaces, both in real time and in altered computerized creations. Using concepts of optical distortion within their individual artistic practice, the active exercise of “hand versus machine” is revealed using a variety of materials, transporting the viewer’s visual experiences. Their creations alter 3D space and time, using lavish patterns of materiality and alternative elements, from slick surface painting to remarkable views of altered graphic relief.
Artworks’ materiality and on-going process now play a vital role in each artist’s studio practice and artistic statement. From the “handmade to the machine made”, the audience will see a shift in the perceived narrative of how each artwork was created. Examination of handmade traditions in artistic studio practice can now be removed from the actual materials process, and/or enhanced by classic, but computerized, methods of weaving, painting, printing and sculpture. From the beginning and end points of 3D printings, to the molded, cut, glued and colored patterns, the artist can trick the eye of the viewer at any moment. Gestures, lines, movement and materials all transport the audience to an unrestricted vision of multiple landscapes and dream-like adventures.
Opulent Landscapes will premier Jeffrey Gibson’s new series of paintings entitled Village, Stillwater, and Dusk, which all emphasize color and geometric form. The exhibition is also featuring works by two artists included in this year’s Venice Biennale, Sislej Xhafa (Kosovo Pavilion) and Gal Weinstein (Israel Pavilion). Xhafa’s “Association in Yellow”, a conceptual relic of the artist’s performance during PERFORMA New York in 2005 will be on view.

You are cordially invited to attend the opening in presence of the Artists
on Thursday April 27, from 5 to 7 pm.

The artist gained international attention in the 1990s when he began to make his series of "Paintants," or mutant paintings, that question the conventions of the medium in light of the burgeoning digital era. The series employs elements of digital photography and sculpture to emphasize and manipulate the spatial and temporal aspects of painting. Marcaccio's paintings are muscular and squirrely, often characterized by excess and ornamentation that is pushed into paradox with the ways in which the works are ultimately structural: The most fundamental elements of painting–canvas, brushstroke, stretcher–are emphasized so that they become the content of the work, rather than the means or support.
After Daniel Buren now Fabian Marcaccio: In his search of a reterritorialisation and rematerialisation of painting Marcaccio with his new Environmental Painting 3DEP3 has gone yet another step further. His 3D printed painted cluster of "plastemas" appear weightless and to ascend inside the gallery's nine metre high Corner Space.

Part 2 Part 3 THE ADVENTURE OF OUR COLLECTION I RE-OPENING KAISER WILHELM MUSEUM
KAISER WILHELM MUSEUM 2 JULY 2016 – SPRING 2017
After being closed for six years and undergoing a general renovation (2012–2016) during which the museum building was refitted to meet international climate-control and security standards, the Kaiser Wilhelm Museum will reopen on 2 July 2016 with a first presentation from its collections.
An opening ceremony marks the start of an eventful week. The director of the Kunstmuseen Krefeld, Dr. Martin Hentschel, will present the new catalogue of the museum’s holdings of art from 1945 to the present and report on his time in office – an exciting period in the history of the museum, denoted by the controversy over the proposed sale of the painting by Claude Monet, the withdrawal of the Lauffs Collection as well as spectacular exhibitions and major acquisitions. The festival week’s programme includes further talks, walking tours through the collection with artists with whom one can discus painting and sculpture while guided tours on the architecture, on individual works of art and ensembles in addition to Johan Thorn Prikker’s murals and the spaces by Joseph Beuys encourage taking a closer look at the building and collections it houses. Studio 1, the new open reference section of the collection of prints and drawings will be introduced. The educational program will take up its works in the new spaces on the ground floor and initiate its first project in Studio 2. Together with many other large and small events we hope to awaken a new interest in art and our museum.
Assembled from the immense holdings belonging to the Kunstmuseen Krefeld, an unconventional staging of works will be on view in the exhibition spaces under the title The Adventure of Our Collection I. Dialogues between current, modern and older art – sometimes across the centuries – will make thematic and stylistic affinities visible; contemporary photographs from Düsseldorf demonstrate the significance of this renowned school and show the development of its various generations; applied art is contrasted with fine art; seemingly incongruous examples of painting pose challenges to our perception. Old friends like Claude Monet and Yves Klein, rediscoveries such as a work by Daniel Spoerri and numerous new pieces by Fabian Marcaccio, Alan Uglow, Thomas Schütte, Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle and many others are moving into new spaces.
We would like to thank the following for all the support they have given us for the re-opening of the Kaiser Wilhelm Museum and the catalogue of the collection

DAS ABENTEUER UNSERER SAMMLUNG I WIEDERERÖFFNUNG KAISER WILHELM MUSEUM
KAISER WILHELM MUSEUM 2. JULI 2016 – FRÜHJAHR 2017
Nach sechsjähriger Schließungszeit und einer Generalsanierung (2012-2016), bei der das Gebäude gemäß internationaler Museumsstandards für Klima und Sicherheit ausgestattet wurde, wird das Kaiser Wilhelm Museum am 2. Juli 2016 mit der ersten Sammlungspräsentation wieder geöffnet.
Eine Eröffnungsfeier bildet den Auftakt zu einer erlebnisreichen Woche. Der Direktor der Kunstmuseen Krefeld, Dr. Martin Hentschel, stellt den neuen Bestandskatalog der Sammlung 1945 bis heute vor und berichtet über seine Amtszeit – eine spannende Periode in der Geschichte des Museums, geprägt von der Diskussion um den Verkauf des Gemäldes von Claude Monet, den Abzug der Sammlung Lauffs wie auch von spektakulären Ausstellungen und hochkarätigen Neuerwerbungen. Im Programm der Festwoche schließen sich weitere Vorträge an, ebenso wie beim Spaziergang mit Künstlern durch die Sammlung über Malerei und Bildhauerei diskutiert werden kann; Führungen zur Architektur, zu einzelnen Kunstwerken und Werkzusammenhängen wie auch zur Wandmalerei von Johan Thorn Prikker und den Räumen von Joseph Beuys regen eine Auseinandersetzung mit der Sammlung und dem Haus an. Das Studio 1, das neue Schaulager der graphischen Sammlung, wird vorgestellt. Die Kunstvermittlung nimmt das pädagogische Programm in den neuen Räumen im Erdgeschoss auf und startet das erste Projekt im Studio 2. Viele weitere größere und kleine Ereignisse und Events machen darüber hinaus Lust auf Kunst und auf das Museum.
In den Ausstellungsräumen ist unter dem Titel Das Abenteuer unserer Sammlung I aus dem immensen Fundus der Kunstmuseen Krefeld eine ungewöhnliche Inszenierung der eigenen Sammlung zu sehen: Dialoge zwischen aktueller, moderner und älterer Kunst machen – zum Teil über Jahrhunderte hinweg – thematische und stilistische Verwandtschaften sichtbar; zeitgenössische Fotografien aus Düsseldorf lassen die Bedeutung dieser renommierten Schule aufscheinen und zeigen die Entwicklung der unterschiedlichen Generationen auf; angewandte Kunst steht Werken der bildenden Kunst gegenüber; scheinbar unvereinbare malerische Positionen fordern die Wahrnehmung heraus. Viele alte Bekannte wie Claude Monet und Yves Klein, Wiederentdeckungen wie eine Arbeit von Daniel Spoerri und zahlreiche Werke von Fabian Marcaccio, Alan Uglow, Thomas Schütte, Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle und vielen anderen, die neu in der Sammlung sind, ziehen in die Räume ein.
Für die Unterstützung der Wiedereröffnung des Kaiser Wilhelm Museums und der Publikation zur Sammlung danken wir
