Press release
On the occasion of the publication of Léo Marin's* essay, What Light stops illuminating, Relentlessly Emerges from the Shadows, devoted to the work of Vincent Lemaire, Galerie Dix9 presents the third solo show of the artist with a selection of works discussed in the text, bringing into view the relationships and dialogues it draws between them.
The essay was produced as part of the ADAGP Ekphrasis Grant, of which Vincent Lemaire was a laureate in 2025. It will be published in the September issue of Le Quotidien de l'Art.
One year after Entropy, the artist's second solo exhibition at the gallery, this essay offers a fresh perspective on works that explore the origins of life and seek to situate us within the vast scales of time and nothingness.
*Léo Marin is Director of URDLA, International Center for Printmaking, and Vice-President of AICA France, International Association of Art Critics.
