Black and White shows together YZ, JonOne and Nicolas Buffe. Coming from different backgrounds and reflecting inspirations which are both various by their cultural references and close by the way they look at the past, YZ, JonOne and Nicolas Buffe presents for the this exhibition their black and white works. In their works full of poetry and delicacy YZ, JonOne and Nicolas Buffe make us discover the chromatic diversity which is possible with the minimalist palette – we even may say “non-colour”. This exhibition brings a certain part of contrasts but also poetry. With acrylic on canvas, black in on silk paper or by reversing the ratio of black on white by working with chalk on black background, the combination of blanch and white allows YZ, JonOne and Nicolas Buffe to create luminous works.
Through a unique in situ performance during the opening, Babou, Tanc and Benjamin Laading offer three graphical interpretations that echoe and punctuate the works by YZ, Nicolas Buffe and JonOne.
