Over to You
Compelling and intimate, this collection of never-before-seen letters between the celebrated art critic and essayist, John Berger and his son Yves, an artist, is a moving look at their musings on art, memory, life, death, and beyond. Written between 2015-16, with 53 color images of well-known old masters and contemporary art as well as some of the Bergers’ own drawings and watercolors, Over to You is an informal back and forth not unlike the ping-pong games father and son used to play in the barn of their house. It begins when John—who is in a Parisian suburb—sends Yves—who is in Haute Savoie—an envelope of reproductions of art that have moved him. And so they begin to reveal their...

From the Orchard to the Garden
A journey from blooming fruit trees to carpets of fragile flowers, from dark wet branches to pistils surrounded by loud, vivid colours. Throughout this visual offering of nature came the human figure, haunting, questioning, suffering and hoping. How is it that the forces of life grow over what's left dead? How do we reach the other side? On asking these questions, Berger observes how human nature exists within nature itself and transforms it into something both terrible and beautiful. The show features recent works on paper using three different techniques: monoprints of apple trees executed during Spring 2016, etchings of human figures worked on over the last few years, and pastel drawings of flowers executed in an Alpine botanical garden during the month of June 2016.

« La dernière page du Sud livre le credo d’Yves Berger. « Chercher des hommes pour qui les mots soient des images, presque des choses ». Voilà quel rêve poursuivait Yves Berger. Rêve impossible, rêve pathétique, de celui qui souffrait de voir les autre se servir des mots comme d’instruments sans valeur propre, alors que pour lui, les mots, c’était la substance du monde, c’était le tout de sa vie. On ne peut aimer ses livres que si on subit leurs cadences, leurs syncopes, leur âpreté, leur pierreux scintillement comme une incantation. Alors, ils opèrent sur vous avec une force magique. » Dominique Fernandez Ce volume contient les titres suivants : Le Sud, Le fou d’Amérique, Les matins du Nouveau Monde, La pierre et le Saguaro, L’attrapeur d’ombres, Immobile dans le courant du fleuve, Le monde après la pluie.
