Exhibition
Silvacane Abbey
La Roque, Summer 2019

Art in Research has the honor to present you its new exhibition at Silvacane Abbey, La Roque d'Anthéron, from 6th July to 29th August 2019. Built during the 12th century, the abbey has a simple architecture in harmony with the Cistercian spirituality. The aesthetic purity of this sanctuary echoes the minimalistic photographs of the AiR collection. The geometry of the works presented is reminiscent of the Cistercian architecture, based on the relationship between forms. The architects of the abbey played with light, just as our artist-researchers enlightened the objects of their research to highlight their contours.
