Michel Parmentier

Programming echoing the exhibitions “Simon Hantaï. The Centenary Exhibition” and “La couleur en fugue”, in which works by Michel Parmentier and Steven Parrino are shown respectively, which are being held at the Fondation Louis Vuitton, Paris, until August 29 2022.


Michel Parmentier (France, 1938–2000) was an active and influential figure within the postwar critique of traditional modes of art-making. Grounding his practice on a denial of gesture or narrative, he is best known for the highly standardized, horizontally-striped canvases painted between 1965 and 1968.
From December 1965, Michel Parmentier started using the folding method (pliage) that he borrowed from Simon Hantaï (1922-2008). This marked a radical change of direction, and from now on it would constitute the main focus of his work.

Steven Parrino (United States, 1958–2005) spoke of “Approaching history in the same way that Dr. Frankenstein approaches body parts… Nature Morte….” He is well known for the abstract paintings he started making in the 1980s. (…). Amidst all the rhetoric about the death of painting, Parrino revisited the modern monochrome, testing it, unpinning it, crumpling it and tearing it.
After the exhibition devoted to the graphic work of Steven Parrino, the gallery presents two original paintings dated 1985 and 2003.
