ben storms
Ben Storms (Ghent, 1983) Ex Hale coffee table, 2024 Miel onyx H 32 x W 180 x D 90 cm Provenance: the artist's studio Ex Hale is a marble table that mimics the shape of a monumental cushion, resulting from a transformation of materials. Two metal sheets are blown up with the same technique that Ben Storms first used for his In Vein and In Hale tables. The resulting cushion shape is then scanned in 3D, after which a CNC machine mills the same shape from a block of marble. Ex Hale plays with our common notions of materiality: the hard stone looks soft instead, an impression that is further enhanced by the delicate surface treatment.

marcelle delcour - guinard
Marcelle Delcour-Guinard (Switzerland, Meyrin 1896-1978 France) Bather, 1931 Marble sculpture H 172 x W 45.5 x D 46 cm Signed ‘M Delcour-Guinard’ and dated 1931 Unique piece Provenance: the artist's family collection Exhibition: Salon des Artistes Français, 1932, Baigneuse, statue de marbre, n° 3675 Born in Cointrain (Canton of Geneva), Marcelle Delcour trained at the Regional School of Fine Arts in Rennes and studied under the sculptors Laurent Marqueste (1848–1920) and Victor Ségoffin (1867–1925), the head of the sculpture studio for female students at the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts in Paris. In 1920, she married the painter Robert Raoul André Guinard (1896–1989), with whom she spent two years in Morocco in 1934. Upon returning to France in 1936, the couple settled in a small village called Crécey, in the commune of Saint-Pair-sur-Mer: he painted, she sculpted. Benefiting from the post–Second World War reconstruction projects, she received numerous commissions from Canon Pinel to restore works of art preserved in the churches of the Manche region. Anne Delcour-Guinard exhibited regularly at the Salon des Artistes Français from 1924 to 1932. In 1924, the committee of the Association des artistes peintres, sculpteurs, architectes, graveurs et dessinateurs (Fondation Taylor) awarded her the Prix Galimard-Jaubert on May 27. In 1925, she received an honourable mention, and in 1932, a bronze medal for La Baigneuse, a marble sculpture. The work was then displayed in a place of honour at the centre of the nave of the Grand Palais. The sculpture is indeed remarkable for its life-size proportions and its distinctive 1930s style, which, in the spirit of Art Deco, celebrates the female form - elongated, elegant, and liberated. She is embodied here as the garçonne: short-haired, athletic, and modern, asserting her nudity without false modesty, revealed through the graceful gesture of her folded arm and offered to the viewer’s gaze.

Anastasis Russia, circa 1600 32.5 x 26.5 cm The Anastasis (resurrection) of Christ and the victory over the realm of death are central to this icon. Christ, surrounded by a radiant mandorla, tramples the gates of the underworld and pulls Adam up from a stone coffin by his wrist. Behind Adam stands John, pointing to Christ with his hand and addressing a group of Old Testament prophets and forefathers. To the right of Christ are Eve, Kings David and Solomon, and the prophet Daniel, amongst others. At the bottom right, Christ can be seen rising from his own tomb

frederik bouttats l'ancien
Frédérik Bouttats the Elder (Antwerp, 1590-1661) Earthly paradise Oil on canvas 55.5 x 83 cm A painter of landscapes, paradises, and animals, he was also an engraver. He joined the Antwerp Guild as early as 1612. He had two pupils, as well as his sons Frédérik the Younger and Jacob. Founder of a famous family of artists, he contributed, along with his followers, to the influence and richness of Flemish painting through brilliant works under the influence of Velvet Brueghel, Jan van Kessel, and Roelandt Savery. To the great delight of naturalists and humanist scholars, the Breughels and their painter friends such as the Bouttats multiplied the themes of the Earthly Paradise, celebrating the beauty and diversity of creation. Like the Bird Traps, these paradises met with great success, and different versions can now be seen in the world’s greatest museums.

pieter brueghel the younger
Pieter Brueghel the Younger (Brussels 1564-1638 Antwerp) The Payment of the Tithe or the Village Lawyer, 1622 Oil on panel 78.9 x 123.2 cm Signed and dated: P. BREVGHEL, 1622 Provenance: private collection, Belgium; Galerie Legenhoek, Paris, 1991; private collection, France Literature: Ertz, Klaus, Pieter Brueghel der Jüngere: Die Gemälde mit kritischem Oeuvrekatalog, Lingen, Luca Verlag, Vol. I, 2000, p. 513, cat. E 507, repr.; Curie, Christina, Allart, Dominique, The Brue[H]el Phenomenon, Brussels, Royal Institute for Cultural Heritage, vol. III, p. 1030-1031 This Payment of the Tithe, or The Village Lawyer, is marked by Pieter Brueghel the Younger’s verve, meticulous execution, and vibrant colours. The satirical subject mocks the profession of the lawyer responsible for collecting the heavy tax that the poorest peasants struggled to pay. The grotesque faces of the petitioners, as well as the lawyer’s prognathous jaw - associating him with the Spanish authorities then in power - fascinate through their caricatural force. This original composition by Pieter Brueghel the Younger stimulated the market of the time, generating strong demand. The success of this still-relevant satire has endured to the present day.
