Les filles du calvaire
Levi Van Veluw , Pays-Bas
"We do not remember"
The artist explores the mechanisms of seduction induced by the visual and formal language of meditative or religious representations. Contemporary spiritual movements that employ these symbols to persuade captivate his interest. Throughout the ages and cultures of the world, religion has played an essential role in the evolution of art, architecture, and narratives. In his work, Van Veluw leverages the richness of these languages and their influence on the imaginations of viewers. He creates multidisciplinary works, including scenic installations, photographs, films, sculptures, paintings, and drawings.
Solo show of Levi Van Veluw
From May 2nd to June 6th, 2024
The gallery
The Les Filles du Calvaire gallery, founded in 1996 by Stéphane Magnan in the Marais district of Paris, is historically located at 17 rue des Filles du Calvaire. In 2023, the gallery opened a second 300m² space at 21 rue Chapon to expand its activities.
The gallery is dedicated to contemporary creation. The artists it represents come from diverse backgrounds. The program is therefore rich in dialogue between the commitments and practices of each individual.
