In the coming exhibition, agnès b.'s LIBRAIRIE GALERIE will bring you to a journey to the amazing and playful 「Sissy Circus」!!

This is an exhibition titled 「Sissy Circus and Other Singularities」by a Swiss artist, Robert Estermann. He was born and grew up in a small village in the Swiss Alps. Since his childhood, he practiced drawing, writing, and a form of impromptu theatre he invented himself. Lines, in particular, always fascinated him, because they are simple yet powerful, and lines play a central role in his work until this day.

The artist makes use of his drawing “Sissy Circus” to inspire the fantasy of a fictional circus.  Integrated with a selection, mostly from the past three years, of different works which the artist refers to “Singularities”, the exhibition conveys a unique network of the surprising, the playful, the elegant, the minimal, and the seemingly child-like but also cunning.

In his practice, the artist refuses a simple set of codes, but instead seeks to “explore, inhabit and celebrate the degrees of grey in reality“.
