EUREKA GALLERY
Gallery exhibiting paintings, sculptures, crafts and objets d'art by renowned artists from very different worlds.
Sandrine, the daughter of Madame Mesquida, a gallery owner who graduated from the École supérieure des arts modernes, exhibits paintings, sculptures and art objects by renowned artists from very different worlds, most of them from Africa. The exhibition also includes contemporary handicrafts borrowed from traditional art as well as beautifully crafted souvenirs, reproductions of antiques, a wide range of art and decorative objects, wooden and bronze sculptures, antique masks, and various fabrics and textiles from Africa. Among the artists presented, the Ghanaian painters Gabriel Eklou and Sam Kobee, the Frenchman Jean-Claude Heinen, famous for his tar paintings, the paintings of Mathieu Jean Gensin - founder of the Negro-Caribbean movement who contributed with Serge Hélénon in the 1970s to the creation of the Vohou-Vohou movement (art of recovery) -, mixing dreamlike colours, vigour of the material and purity of lines à la Basquiat, as well as the surprising installations of Salif Diabagaté, heir of Vohou-Vohou and undoubtedly one of the most original and gifted artists of the contemporary African art scene. We can also mention the astonishing Yéanzi and his incredible portraits made from molten plastic. The Eureka gallery also exhibits female artists, such as Mireille Gross and Christie N', and photographs by Joana Choumali, now a recognized and confirmed talent of the Ivorian photographic scene. Very interesting.
