OUR ARTS, OUR ORIGINS, a unique exhibition at A2Z Art Gallery, is the result of an exceptional collaboration between the artistic duo Laurence Graffensttaden and the artist Danhôo. This project is built upon an intimate dialogue between the legacy of the great masters of art and a resolutely contemporary artistic vision.
In this exhibition, Laurence Auzière-Jourdan and Matthieu Graffensttaden, known together as Laurence Graffensttaden, and Danhôo pay tribute to the influences that have transcended borders and centuries to shape the history of art in France. Rather than offering a traditional homage, the exhibited works reinterpret the spirit and techniques of the great masters while integrating elements of modernity and cultural diversity.
Laurence Graffensttaden revisits emblematic themes and symbols, breathing into them a personal and immersive perspective, thus creating a visual bridge between past and present. Danhôo, on the other hand, explores the spiritual dimension of this artistic connection. In each of his gestures and projections of color, the vitality of the masters who inspired him can be felt, as though their energies are guiding his hand. Through his vibrant compositions, he captures that timeless force that transcends cultural boundaries.
OUR ARTS, OUR ORIGINS is much more than an exhibition: it is an invitation to explore the deep connections between eras and cultures. This project offers a journey that goes beyond the traditional frameworks of art to deliver a vibrant and immersive experience.
This catalog invites you to dive into this fusion of artistic influences—a celebration of the dialogue between heritage and innovation—brought to life through the unique vision of Laurence Graffensttaden and Danhôo.
