herman de vries - Mouans-Sartoux, Paris, Eschenau, Digne-les-Bains, Trédrez-Locquémeau

In 2024 and 2025, the Espace de l’Art Concret, Dourven Gallery, Aline Vidal Gallery, and Gassendi Museum presented the work of herman de vries, reflecting their long-standing relationships with the artist. With a selection of exhibition views, documents of on-site interventions, and photographs of the artist in his studios and places of work, this volume is a succession of visual and geographical wanderings, between exterior and interior, between context and detail, between the world and the work. Five samples (olive leaves, charcoal, paper, earth, seaweed) were taken in the five locations concerned, following the artist’s recommendations, and included in this publication.
