Cyprien Gaillard (*1980) works across a range of media including film, video, photography, collage, installation and live performance. His extraordinary cosmos gives new form to such phenomena as civilizational upheaval and geological time. Concerned with the wreckage of modernity and the intersections between human artefacts, urban geography and psychology, the Paris and Berlin-based artist’s work embraces a poetry of entropy that rearranges history to shed new light on the present.

Group Exhibition
Museum Beelden aan Zee, Den Haag
April 12–September 8, 2024
If not now, when? presents an international selection of over seventy sculptures and installations from the collection of art collector Max Vorst. The exhibition gives an impressive overview on the developments in contemporary sculpture in the twenty-first century and demonstrates the diversity, originality and high quality of one of the most important private art collections in The Netherlands, and it connects themes such as the contemporary image of the human form, abstraction, rhythm and construction while also showing the blurring of time.
