There are concepts that survive time like quartz rock, without eroding and losing their luster. Mainly because they represent the foundation of what we call history and without them everything would crumble under our feet. The idea of "paradise" is perhaps one of the most primitive and essential. This place where - according to some religions - everything was born. The popular imagination, literature and art have been charged over the centuries with endowing this concept with multiple forms and meanings, nevertheless almost all come together when they define it as a magical, bucolic and magnificent place. A luxuriant and privileged garden. It is in this sense that “PARADISO” is articulated, alluding to the idea of an imagined and comforting space in which to feel the calm and the joy necessary for life. A collective proposal by Galerie Géraldine Banier which aims to offer the viewer a fresh, vital and beautiful breath and which in a way helps us to find the light in these dark times. This beautiful escape serves as a common thread for the dialogue between the artists presented. Manuèle Bernardi's constellations, suspended from a thread, seem to come from the stratosphere. Light and fragile beings that move above our heads, small floral elements that fall on our face as if swarmed from a balcony beyond the clouds.

Above the city, the sound of an incessant beating diverts our gaze: the rooftops are colonized by the flocks of birds of Vytautas Tomaševičius which modify the landscape and announce new changes, new unforeseen directions for which he does not. there is no card. Furtively, animals of a noble nature advance on the grass; their movements bring us closer to the particular mystique of the works of Laurence Le Constant and remind us that everything is as true as it is ephemeral. From the branches of a fruit tree, the colors spread over the earth in the works of Manu Muñoz. New worlds for old dreams. Paradise between the beginning and the end.
