Today, the 13th of February 2018 is the opening of the exhibition “Heavenly Hell or Hellish Paradise” at the Grand Palais – Art Capital in Paris, France.
The event is organized by Lukas Kandl and the Libellule Movement.
On this occasion, we are presenting the first (out of two) painting by Tomasz Alen Kopera – “Paradisial Hell I” oil on canvas, dimensions 195x130cm; 77″x51″. The painting will be available for purchase directly from the organizers. The exhibition runs until 18 Feb 2018.
Here are a few words from Lukas Kandl about the subject of the exhibition:
“In our culture Paradise exists and everyone would like to settle there.
Hell is completely unbearable and must be avoided absolutely.
In Paradise everything is tidy, flowers smell good and even cats and mice live in peace together. In hell everything is so appalling and burning that, even by thought, you have to stay out.
But the reality is much more subtle and shows us more funny situations. Like the one where the man catches the mice to give them to the cats, which, once well fed, become edible for the man. And with their furs we make beautiful hats for paradisiac evenings where we drink to the health of angels and demons, who finally met under the presidency of Adam and Eve who have just realized that they are completely naked.
Heavenly hell or hellish paradise???”
