Hagrid’s Hut and The Forbidden Forest offer an interactive Patronus charm experience. Guests will then uncover iconic creatures, such as centaurs and Acromantula, hidden in the forest and explore inside a recreation of Hagrid’s Hut.

An exclusive collection of Harry Potter: The Exhibition merchandise will be available in the onsite retail shop for guests to celebrate their fandom through an assortment of themed collections that span the expanded Wizarding World.

Una mostra dedicata ai dipinti dell’artista, imprenditore, creativo, collezionista cosmopolita che dagli anni Settanta attraversa il mondo della moda, del design, dell’arte internazionale

La pittura di Bellotti mantiene la semplicità di un segno ingenuo, sintetico, colorato, dalle reminiscenze fauve; i volti che ritrae sono essenziali, con espressioni intense ed elementari. Come scrive Angelo Flaccavento: “Si può cogliere di tutto, azzeccando o no, perchè tanto la verità è sempre negli occhi dell’osservatore: segni d’Oriente, di Modigliani e Giacometti, tinte di Balla, primitivismo di Picasso e Braque, e non poco Ettore Sottsass nell’esplosione dei colori, che però fanno anche pensare alla New York neoespressionista di Basquiat”.

Le opere in mostra sono tappe di un viaggio – reale o interiore – di un uomo che ha assorbito, senza schemi, la bellezza del mondo e l’intensità delle relazioni vissute, e che ci invita a fare altrettanto, con la certezza che per viaggiare con l’immaginazione non servono mappe né una guida.

Una parte del ricavato dalla vendita delle opere verrà donato all’ente benefico Associazione di solidarietà donne per le donne (Asdd) che da ottobre 2022 si occupa di creare una rete di sostegno ed inclusione per le donne afghane residenti in Italia.

JEAN PIERRE RAYNAUD REMETTRA À L’AMBASSADEUR D’UKRAINE
UNE OEUVRE INÉDITE, VERSION MODERNE DU GUERNICA DE PICASSO

DÉVOILEMENT LE 24 FÉVRIER 2023
À SORBONNE ARTGALLERY
(UNIVERSITÉ PARIS 1 PANTHÉON-SORBONNE)

« La peinture est un instrument de guerre offensive et défensive contre l’ennemi. »
Pablo Picasso

En soutien à l’effort de guerre, l’artiste conceptuel français Jean Pierre Raynaud répond à la proposition des éditions Jannink de faire don au peuple ukrainien d’une oeuvre inédite,
pendant moderne du Guernica de Picasso.
La pièce sera dévoilée à la Sorbonne le 24 février 2023 puis exposée dans le musée choisi par les autorités ukrainiennes le jour venu.

Près d’un an après le début de l’invasion russe, Jean Pierre Raynaud, les éditions Jannink, Sorbonne Artgallery et tous ceux qui les accompagnent, entendent rejoindre la coalition des artistes qui se font l’écho de ce conflit dans le monde entier. L’art, plus que tout, peut encourager le soulèvement d’une puissance collective et le refus de toute résignation.

Cette initiative fait écho à l’appel du Président Volodymyr Zelensky, prononcé à la Biennale de Venise en avril 2022, dans lequel il exhortait les acteurs européens et internationaux de la culture et de l’art à soutenir l’Ukraine.

Le dévoilement de cette oeuvre inédite aura lieu le 24 février 2023 dans la cour d’honneur du Centre Panthéon de la Sorbonne, temple de la connaissance et de la jeunesse européenne, en présence de S.E. l’ambassadeur Vadym Omelchenko, Christine Neau-Leduc, la présidente de l’Université Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne, ainsi que l’artiste lui-même.

Guernica, réalisée en 1937, est le symbole universel de la dénonciation par l’art des horreurs de la guerre. Avec cette
toile de plus de sept mètres de long, Picasso a non seulement rendu un hommage vibrant aux victimes, mais a surtout fait du monde entier le témoin des exactions nazies.

Jean Pierre Raynaud reprend aujourd’hui les dimensions exactes (3,49 m x 7,76 m) de cette toile emblématique afin d’en réaliser la version moderne selon ses propres codes esthétiques.

Très lié au Nouveau Réalisme français, Jean Pierre Raynaud s’inscrit parfaitement dans la démarche initiée par Picasso près d’un siècle auparavant.
Glaciale et distante, son oeuvre fait état des absurdités de notre rapport au monde en présentant le drame avec une distanciation presque chirurgicale. Rien n’est exprimé, tout est montré.

Cette initiative bénéficie de l’aimable autorisation de Picasso administration et du soutien de :
Christine Neau-Leduc, présidente de l’Université Paris 1 Panthéon- Sorbonne
Yann Toma, en charge de Sorbonne
Artgallery/CVEC
Cécile Debray, présidente du musée Picasso

Institut Ramon Llull, Paris
