In partnership with the Centre national des arts plastiques (CNAP), the Studio is delighted to welcome the latest photographic project by artist Ilanit Illouz, shot on the outskirts of Italy's Etna volcano, which is still active. This exhibition marks the beginning of a new partnership between the Studio and the CNAP, launched in 2025 to support and promote contemporary art.
The exhibition Au bord du Volcan was conceived as ‘a narrative built around a cave in Sicily’, in the words of the artist. This cavity, the result of a lava flow that has solidified, has spectacular strata as evidence of this fusion. In Ilanit Illouz's photographs, this aggregate of rocks becomes a never-ending landscape, in which references to scale seem to be blurred, the better to immerse ourselves in the material.
