Dhewadi Hadjab
Acte II : Fragmenter
Oct 14 - Dec 21, 2024
Mennour, 28 avenue Matignon
By choosing photography as a tool serving painting, in the same capacity as the paintbrush or the paint, Dhewadi Hadjab organises shooting sessions with models of his inner circle and a whole gathering of costumes. At the moment of painting, the tones transmute into purple, bright red and fuchsia. And for the first time, the bodies displayed are cut. The framings of Caravaggio could be mentioned, but those of Dhewadi Hadjab are tighter, more enigmatic, evoking dance, the precisely composed movements of Pina Bausch, whose performances he has been watching intensely for many years.
