A lively exhibition space located in the heart of the Old City, Galerie Polomarco offers an independent and regularly renewed selection of contemporary artworks from both established and emerging artists.
The gallery is also a meeting point for discussions and sharing, evolving with the rhythm of openings and events, where all art lovers, friends and acquaintances, as well as other enthusiasts converge.
While the politicization of images may be king today, painting, from the studio to the gallery, is nonetheless a domestic object in the making.
The Painting Academy presents nine artists whose work could be likened to a re-emergence of painting. The last few decades have been more than beneficial for the local artistic landscape, which has been distended, expanded and enriched by a multitude of new mediums.
The pictorial panorama is in turn refreshed by a freer, more innovative landscape, mischievously signalling the return of the world’s oldest medium.
Artists: Stéphane Nabil Petitmermet, Simon Salazar, Jon Merz, Leanne Picthall, Romane De Watteville, Hanna Rochereau, Martin Bonnaz, Gregory Bourrilly, Camila Oliveira Fairclough.
