From the 21st April until 14th May, at its new space on rue du Mail, Galerie Triple V will present a large monographic solo show by American artist John Tremblay.

 

Born in 1966 in Massachusetts, John Tremblay is a major contemporary figure in abstract art, who tests the sculptural limits of painting. He explores the possibilities offered by abstraction, all whilst paying particular attention to reality. John Tremblay’s pieces are inspired by music, architecture and urbanism through the prism of abstract realism.

 

A successor of iconic American painting trends from the second half of the 20th Century, his abstract Pop-Op compositions place themselves at the crossroads of optical art, reusing motifs and the specific colours of pop art. Oval bubbles and squircles (rectangles with rounded corners) punctuate the works of a sculptor, not without pointing out the repetitive pictorial techniques of All-over.

 

John Tremblay’s paintings divide themselves into groups and series in order to form ensembles where supports and surfaces come together harmoniously. Canvases and shaped canvases of unusual shapes, explore the possibilities offered by a hollowed, torn frame. They become sculpture.

 

Galerie Triple V celebrates this contemporary artist for the second time, and has left the rue du Mail space, inaugurated on 4th February 2016, at his disposal. To read, the artist's monography published by Jean-Michel Place in 2005 written by Vincent Pécoil, founder of Triple V.

 

John Tremblay was born in 1966. He lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.

 

This American artist is recognised for renewing abstraction in painting. He moves towards the Op Art trend and minimalist abstraction. Triple V has presented him at group shows including, Science Fiction #3 and Too Big to Fail (2013) and during a solo show in 2012.

 

Internationally renowned, he has been the subject of many exhibitions in Japan (Emon Gallery, Tokyo in 2006), Seoul (Paik Hae Gallery in 2007), New York (Paula Cooper Gallery, 2003-2008) and also in Los Angeles (Richard Telles Fine Art in 2000).

 

 

On 4th February 2016, Galerie Triple V inaugurated its second exhibition space on 5, rue du Mail, in the second arrondissement of Paris close to Place des Victoires.

 

Made up of a vast hall of 30m long and 13m wide, a total surface area of 500m2 with a ceiling height of 4m, this new exhibition space finds itself in an old fabric factory, and preserves the industrial aspect.

 

It is in this highly creative area that the gallery can bring its resolutely contemporary touch to a privileged space which also sees the instalment of its first contemporary art gallery.

 

Galerie Triple V has been working since 2007 to present both French and international contemporary artists from various generations and aesthetic horizons to abstract, conceptual, pop and minimalist approaches.

 

Developed in partnership with art dealer Laurent Strouk, this new space will allow Galerie Triple V to take its support and collection of artists to a higher level, enriched by the arrival of two new artists: Alex Brown and Lauren Montaron.
