Guy de Maupassant, ci informa Savinio, «morì nel 1893 ma “cessò di essere lui” due anni avanti, nel 1891, cioè a dire nell’anno medesimo in cui Nivasio Dolcemare entrò nella vita». Ed è solo una di quelle «coincidenze astrali» che tanto piacciono al doppio letterario di Savinio, il quale ci propone...
“Between the outside and the inside, between the external and the internal edge-line, the framer and the framed, the figure and the ground, form and content, signifier and signified.... ”Jacques Derrida, The Truth in PaintingIn her youth, Nathalie Du Pasquier once imagined becoming a sign painter—a “peintre en lettres” as she put it—working outdoors, carefully rendering the lettering on storefronts or the sides of cars. Du Pasquier has long gravitated toward places where painting intersects with the built environment, from the signs on the storefronts of Port Gentil, Gabon—where she lived for a year at the age of eighteen—to the Byzantine mosaics of Ravenna, which she visited as a child. In her 2015 essay “My Influences,” Du Pasquier enumerates the chain of people, places, and things that have impacted her aesthetic sensibility over the course of her career as if arranging objects for a still life: “Persian miniatures, Ingres, Giotto, Piero della Francesca, Indian temples, Sanchez Cotán, Sottsass, El Lissitzky, Morandi, Giorgio de Chirico and Savinio, French Medieval miniatures, Le Corbusier, the shape of flowers, the colours of exotic fishes, the beauty of animal life, Japanese prints, the albums of Tintin et Milou. Plus,” she hastens to add, “many more things.”This rich tapestry of disparate influences is woven throughout Du Pasquier’s paintings of the past decade, which have gradually evolved from figurative still-life compositions toward pure abstractions. Since 2016, her paintings no longer depict real objects, instead revealing the imagined spaces and relations between things. Pace Gallery’s online exhibition Nathalie Du Pasquier: Spaces Between Things, on view from June 2 through June 16, 2020, brings together more than a dozen works to trace this evolution in her practice. Two concurrent presentations—the online exhibition Message From My Room, consisting of a suite of new drawings with Anton Kern Gallery and, and Constellation, an installation for Apalazzo Gallery in Brescia, Italy—offer the opportunity to consider the centrality of painting to Du Pasquier’s multifaceted practice, in which both architecture and drawing also play important roles.
