Galerie XII cordially invites you to join us for the opening of our Summer exhibition with unique works by Paris-based artist Taulé (b. 1945, Spain). The pieces presented, both oil paintings and painted photographs, were inspired by the scenery of Formentera Island. In addition to the architecture and its expressions of light, an important motif for the artist, Taulé also depicts imaginary doors which represent ‘a threshold, a portal which, from the visible, leads to the invisible’. Renowned for his chiaroscuros, Taulé’s game is played between light and shadows in highly structured spaces, opening up entirely new perspectives. This presentation follows the recent exhibition of Insula Lux at the Chanel Nexus Hall, Tokyo.
