For several years, the Christophe Gaillard Gallery has been accompanying the work of Pierre Tal Coat (1905-1985) in close collaboration with the artist's family. After the first major solo exhibition devoted to him in 2019, this new presentation takes a radically different tack, born of Christophe Gaillard's personal intuition, which has long wished to link Pierre Tal Coat's paintings with works of non-Western art. Unlike other artists of his time, Tal Coat never collected African or Oceanic art objects: this unprecedented combination is an opportunity to renew our contemporary view of his work and to grasp once again all its independence and freedom.
