For his first solo show in Belgium, Pierre-Yves Bohm (b. 1951 in Roncq, lives and works in Roubaix), a singular figure in French contemporary art, unveils an exceptional body of work, enriched by new creations, and takes over the first floor of Galerie Christophe Gaillard in Brussels from November 14 to December 21, 2024.
Pierre-Yves Bohm transcends traditional art classifications. Somewhere between introspection and metamorphosis, the work of this painter and sculptor strikes a delicate balance between figuration and transformation, destruction and reconstruction. His work reflects a profound quest: to probe, without concession, the mysteries of the human condition. With his unique approach to material, Bohm cuts, sews, pierces and assembles his canvases and materials to create vibrant compositions that tell or conceal a story, often inspired by the current events of a world that troubles this ultra-sensitive artist.
