In his work, Evariste Richer (*1969 in Montpellier) links his
interest in the natural sciences and concepts of space and time,
combining their manifestations like a chemist who is empirically testing reactions
between elements. An alchemistic approach, for twelve years Richer’s
work has been characterized by a world viewed in the light of its
geological and cosmic elements and in which abstraction and formal
simplicity are accompanied by the sublime. The works being presented in
the exhibition Caesium reflect a wide variety ofphysical phenomena and
play with the perception of time and space and their measures. Richer
places the Remise in Braunschweig in spatial relation to his studio in
Paris by the revelation of a Diazo printing serie at scale one of the
windowpanes in his studio and using them to create a « mise en abime »
of the facade of the Remise. They provide the viewer with a real point
of reference for situating the exhibition in terms of a shift in
perspective.
