Neo Campari is hosting the solo commission Child Prodigy by Paris-based artist Victor Boullet. His work in frieze form is running like a continuous wave on top of his robust floor sculptures in this site specific Paris location. The darkened room will be bathed in black light, causing the turquoise parts of the sculptures to stand out sharply. Boullet's almost spectrally delicate objects seem like negatives of snapshots from a bizarre parallel world.

Dear Jodie Over the past seven months I've left you dozens of poems, letters and love messages in the faint hope that you could develop an interest in me. Although we talked on the phone a couple of times I never had the nerve to simply approach you and introduce myself.... The reason I'm going ahead with this attempt now is because I cannot wait any longer to impress you. — John Hinckley, Jr |
“With Carrefour, I'm positive” (Avec Carrefour, je suis positive), You’ll away with nothing You’ll away with nothing Our world problem today is the big food chains, their control. One of these monster entrepreneurs, a Norwegian business man is starting his own bank. And that is when we have no more control, the supermarket becomes our bank. Lazy convenience is a modern pollution that will make our future legacy suffer. Blinkers must be lifted and myopic people must wake up. The only banker that ever did anything good must have been Paul Cezanne’s father, and that is me saying that, only because I appreciate Cezanne. My great, great massive forehead rolls onto the keyboard, and I prepare my nose for attacking the keys. I close my eyes and remember the lines “You’ll away with nothing - You’ll get away with nothing” I press my nose into the keyboard. I decide to peck that daily email with my big fat long nose. I peck frenetically on the bluetooth apple keyboard. (bluetooth, a name that derives from a Danish king. And old dead monarch reappearing as a technology invention) I peck with my nose, I am a pecker pecking away. peck peck. I peck a letter, peck, peck, pecking a letter. Warm regards |
