Augustin Rebetez, exhibition at Kurant, Tromsø, June 5th – 13th 2010
Vernissage Saturday 5th 20:30h at Kurant visningsrom, Søndre Tollbodgate 17
Mr Salman Bal the Deputy Head of Mission of the Embassy of Switzerland in Norway will open the exhibition.
Daily open from 13 :00 - 17:00
Mixing together observation cinema and animation, documentary or very constructed pictures, drawings – all in an rock’n’roll kind of hanging -, Augustin Rebetez proposes an unusual universe, full of ideas and without any complexes.
The exhibition is presented like an art sting, at the same time fresh and disorganized, letting lightning dreamlike visions appearing suddenly, monsters with a human appearance looking, or very weird constructions. Reality seems forgotten on the way, it reveals itself in front of you through a « hangover » pictures series questioning the sad part of parties. Have a look!
Biography
Based (Living) in Switzerland,Augustin Rebetez (1986) studied at the photography school of Vevey (CH). In 2009, he exposed at the same time his work « Hangover» at « Photoforum Pasquar »t (CH) and at the « Musée de l’Elysée » in Lausanne (CH). The latter has selected him for its scope project « ReGeneration2 ». He also won prices for a few short movies in Switzerland and abroad. In summer 2010, he will expose/show (comme tu veux) his work at the « Rencontres d’Arles » (F), at the « Musée de l’Elysée » (CH) and also at the Kunsthaus in Berne (CH) in prestigious collective exhibitions.
« His pictures give an impression of weird beauty, flashed and mysterious, as just taken out from a parallel world. » 24 Heures, Swiss newspaper
« The main components of Rebetez preoccupation are an anxious, breathtaking and abyssal time, an aesthetic form of the gulf. », Le Quotidien Jurassien, swiss newspaper
