Through the superposition of firm layers on wood, he seeks to capture the vibrant light of his environment. It is a mature, strong work, where the effects of material and light create subtle vibrations; the artist plays on the tension between abstraction and figurative painting.
This exhibition is that of a contemporary painter whose personality exudes a true inner strength which gives him an air of simplicity and serene solidity, and whose work manages to transform a fleeting moment into an eternal moment.
Alejandro Quincoces’ exhibition of his recent works will end on March 30.
Only one week left to come and enjoy it at the gallery!
Alejandro Quincoces was born in 1951 and was passionate about painting and music from an early age. He is exhibited regularly in Europe and the United States and devotes his art to urban landscapes. : cities, factories, highways… seen from afar or up close, which he fixes, thus subtracting a moment from daily reality from the incessant flow of time.
The Arcturus Gallery invites you to start the year with “An Inner Journey”. Living in the present moment, rethinking concrete realities, focusing on our senses – these concepts, both philosophical and spiritual, make us question our existence – as well as the way we perceive our environment and ourselves.
With Regina Gimenez, travel through ordinary spaces, carried by a sense of strangeness. Tim Hall plunges our gaze into the immensity of the desert or the infinite horizon of the sea. And Tony Soulié takes photographs, then gives them this inimitable patina which is his trademark.
To be discovered at the Arcturus Gallery,
From January 25th to March 4th 2023 !
To extend the lightness and freedom provided by the holidays and this beautiful season that is summer, the ARCTURUS gallery is offering a back-to-school exhibition under the sign of “Flower Power”, and its trace in the work of artists from the gallery.
A journey from the famous photograph taken by Marc Riboud of “the girl with the flower” in front of the Pentagon in October 1967, through the bohemian Lower East Side of NY photographed by Hervé Gloaguen, to younger artists, Alfons Alt, Luzia Simons, and Tony Soulié, each interpreting “Flower Power” in the light of their personal universe and their media.

This month of May, we highlight the human and its representation with two artists from the gallery!
Lidia MASLLORENS, Spanish painter, plans to create an archetype of the portrait of this beginning of the 21st century. Painting humans and their emotions is what motivates her. His large-scale works have great sensitivity, a strong presence, and exude dynamism and vitality combined with real poetry.
Gabriel SCHMITZ, German painter, has an approach of constant curiosity for the human, and that his conscience and his unconscious. He intensely weaves an invisible web linking the real beings that are the painter and the spectators, to his human subjects whose deep emotions he transmits to us.
Exhibition from May 3 to 31!
This year, the Arcturus gallery celebrates its 10 years of friendship with the artist Alejandro Quincoces and presents its 5th personal exhibition.
The subjects to which he devotes himself are essentially urban landscapes: cities, factories, highways… seen from far or near, which he fixes, thus subtracting a moment from daily reality from the incessant flow of time. Through the superposition of firm layers on wood, he seeks to capture the vibrant light of his surroundings. It is a mature, strong work, where the effects of matter and light create subtle vibrations; the artist plays on the tension between abstraction and figurative painting.
This exhibition is that of a contemporary painter whose personality exudes a real inner strength that gives him an air of simplicity and serene solidity, and whose work manages to transform a fleeting moment into an eternal moment.

… and the other artists of the Arcturus gallery
Luzia Simons is a Brazilian artist represented in numerous public collections in Germany, Brazil, Cuba, France and the United Kingdom.
Since 1996, she has developed a process from a scanner by placing, superposing, a floral composition on the glass plate of the scanner which captures the image by a slow sweep. The rendering is fascinating because of the depth of field, the poetry, the subtle reference to the painting and even the thousand flowers tapestry.
The flowers seem to float on a dense and deep black background, which adds to the immateriality, the timelessness of the composition. Her works invite us to a journey into space. It fixes a moment of climax of beauty that we could not see without her intervention, before the inevitable decay. A reference to beauty, fragility, and perhaps the finitude of our world.
The gallery will welcome you from 2pm to 6pm on Sunday 7 November for the exhibition “Silencieuses”, photographs, by Luzia Simons.
The 7th edition of Un Dimanche à la galerie, a joint opening day for art galleries throughout France, pursues the initial objective of reaching a new audience – or too rarely present in galleries; to report on the diversity of the artistic proposals of the galleries in France; and to make known the indispensable role of the gallery owner in promoting the work of the artists.
Luzia SIMONS is exhibited at the Galerie ARCTURUS for the first time as part of PHOTODAYS festival !
We are pleased to present photographs from the “Stockage” series, unveiled for the first time.
“Luzia Simons scans in the smallest detail an overall composition, building a realistic, sensitive picture, an imposing work with a prodigious definition and depth of field that only the human eye can capture. The flowers seem to float on a dense and deep black background, which adds to the immateriality, the timelessness of the composition … She fixes a moment of climax of beauty that we could not see without her intervention, before the inevitable decay. A reference to beauty, fragility, and perhaps the finitude of our world.”
Collective exhibition at the gallery until October 27 !

Gabriel SCHMITZ, “Sidewalk stories”, 2020
Oil on canvas, 100 x 144 cm
“I have always loved the shadow. I have been taking photographs with the shadow for a very long time. And suddenly, with the lockdown, the urge came to take these pictures out and launch me. I like to use a track to the full, a theme that motivates me.
I have a very strong memory in New York, about 10 years ago. I was in an apartment facing southwest, and I spent the morning on the balcony watching, sketching and photographing the shadow moving, jumping from building to building. The shadow moved in architecture and depth, constantly changing the landscape. It is really wonderful to work on the motif, because we live every stage of the movement of light. I work less often outside now, except for sketches, and I like to relive, in the workshop, the emotions of these movements.”
Gottfried SALZMANN, extract from an interview by Anne de la Roussière, septembre 2021
Back to school is exciting with ARCTURUS !Come on September 9 to meet Gottfried SALZMANN and discover the exhibition “The shadow over life and the city”.
In a set of varied watercolor of which he is undoubtedly the contemporary master, Gottfried SALMZANN explores in this new series the shadow, therefore the light. He explores the way in which shadow slightly or more heavily covers the glass or brick architecture of New York or the stone buildings of Paris. It’s like a light presence and elegant veil through which one can see the shimmers or the structures of the buidings, which subtly reveals the details of the walls and streets.
Let’s meet on September 9 for a beautiful exhibition of new works by Gottfried SALZMANN entitled “Shadow over life … and city”.
We wish you a wonderful summer, and you can take the time to stroll on the gallery website and on our social networks !
