HangART-7 Edition 10 - France
5th of July to 31st of August 2008
With more than 60 million inhabitants, the largest nation in Europe primarily defines itself as a cultural nation and its cultural capital is Paris. France also vigourously defends its national identity and cultural self-image within the European Union and by means of political endeavours. This exhibition in Hangar-7 showed 17 recent works by French painters and thus displayed trends that had only recently developed. A distinctive feature some artists depicted was the combination of narration with monochrome, i.e. painting with a single colour.
