Veilhan Versailles
Xavier Veilhan
Sunday 13 September 2009 to Sunday 13 December 2009
How can works of art fit into an architectural complex and a landscape as symbolic as Versailles? As a good artist who cares about perspectives and systems of constructing representations, Xavier Veilhan has taken the liberty of staging a new painting in Louis XIV ’s perfect setting, a fluid, dynamic trajectory focusing on relationships between scales, balances and observation points.
