Julian Charrière: ‘The deep sea is a phantasmagorical space’

French Swiss artist Julian Charrière presents 'Midnight Zone' at Museum Tinguely in Basel, an exhibition that plunges viewers into the oceanic abyss through four new commissions and earlier works. The show features video installations, sculptural works, and acoustic pieces that explore deep-sea ecologies, including a film set in the Clarion-Clipperton Zone targeted for deep-sea mining, and a rotating Fresnel lens installation that translates low-frequency noise pollution into vibration. Charrière’s multidisciplinary approach draws on fieldwork in extreme geographies like the Arctic and deep ocean.

art gaetano pesce final public sculpture

Gaetano Pesce's final sculpture, "Double Heart," has been installed as his only permanent public artwork in the United States. The 30-foot-tall illuminated piece, featuring two interlocking hearts pierced by Cupid's arrow, now hovers above the Massachusetts Turnpike at the Lyrik Back Bay plaza in Boston. Commissioned by developer Samuels & Associates and art advisory Goodman Taft, the work was overseen by gallerist Lucy Chadwick of Champ Lacombe after Pesce's death in early 2024. The sculpture reflects Pesce's signature blend of playfulness and humanism, contrasting with the rigid geometry of modernist design.
