Laurent Ajina lands on American soil to command his first American solo exhibit. In an united effort among European and American allies, Basel’s largest gallery, MARCdePUECHREDON, and Dam, Stuhltrager have united to shake the art world.
Drawings exuding energized lines in numerous dimensions (on paper, in installations, as sculpture) occupy all three of Dam, Stuhltrager’s divisions with Ajina’s multifaceted “The Perfect Line?”
“Laurent Ajina makes visible what is hidden and puts shadow on the most evident, a reflection on the non-identifiable context, the useless. An emanation of energy develops enormous networks between the overcharged chaos and the multiplication of different points of view. Ajina is creating interfering systems representing concrete and abstract connections linking us to each other. He establishes transitions in order to create chain reactions, interactions meant to reconstruct, regenerate the system.” – Caroline Messensee
