Sébastien de Ganay «Transposition and Reproduction», June 11 - October 15, 2017, Dominikanerkirche Krems, Zeitkunst Niederösterreich.
Sébastien de Ganay is currently one of the most innovative representatives of experimental painting and sculpture. With his work, he moves within the field between art and design. De Ganay uses a both sensual and minimalistic language of forms in his works, combining the representational and the abstract, the everyday and the exclusive in a refreshing way. His reliefs as well as his cardboard and furniture objects seem abstract yet familiar. «Why torture yourself when everything already exists. For all those who are at a loss, I recommend a moderate dose of shrewd plagiarism with a pinch of sustained inspiration. Possible result: a bit of art.» (Sebastien de Ganay)
