Lunch at espace_L in the presence of Chrisitina Oiticica
We gladly invite you for a meeting between nature and art with Chrisitna Oiticica. The artist and her husband, Paulo Coelho, form a symbiotic couple, fostering creativity as well as a certain spirituality. Christina's work is inscribed in the tendency of "Land Art", but she keeps her creative independence in the fact that she acts as an artist-acheologist, digging her works in the entrails of the earth in order to root it.
Tuesday, Nov 27th from 12 to 13:30pm
