& Vincent van Gogh
In 1888 Vincent van Gogh dreamed of sharing his lodgings, the Yellow House in Arles with fellow painters from Paris and the local area, with the aim of creating a collaborative studio.
From 2020 to 2023, Maja Hoffmann and the American artist Laura Owens organised and led the residency Studio of the South in a private house on Rue du Cloître.
The Fondation Vincent van Gogh Arles has invited the 24 participants to come together in order to revisit this stage of their artistic journey.
Two paintings by Van Gogh, Field with Poppies and Green Ears of Corn (Arles, 1888) and several facsimiles of Van Goghs’ correspondence accompany the work of the participants of Studio of the South.
As an extension of the exhibition, the private house on Rue du Cloître is also open to the public during the time of the exhibition (see bellow).
Curators of the exhibition: Bice Curiger, Vassilis Oikonomopoulos, Margaux Bonopera, Eimear Martin
The exhibition is produced by the Fondation Vincent van Gogh Arles in collaboration with LUMA.
