"I EXHIBIT" This is the very first SOLO SHOW of COLINEISCOOL But who is COLINEISCOOL? As a good child of her generation, she didn't bend over backwards, or even in two - she asked ChatGPT to do the job for her: "COLINEISCOOL is a French artist. She has become known for her unique style that mixes illustration, design and pop culture influences. Her work is often inspired by personal experiences and a keen sense of color and composition. She has created a visual universe of her own, attracting the attention of many art lovers." It would have been difficult to do better. In her words, she simply wanted to add this: “This exhibition is an opportunity to show things materially, to go further than the social networks where it all began, to present collages often combining the poetry of Paul Éluard and Guillaume Apollinaire, watercolors by Édith – this fictional character with a round head and body, skies that never existed in tempera, pebble-poems, words on paper that knew how to say something once and a whole lot of stuff that is useless. All of this in one place, together, for the first time. You too will see them if you come.” If I could add a few more words, I would say that it seems to me that what I do is not very useful, but it is there, in my head and at my fingertips. Like a necessity, needing to express it, to give it form. I also believe that it is good when it is useless. It is there, and that is enough. We could add to his addition that before, COLINEISCOOL did for the sake of doing, now, it does and shows. And this is not a commercial argument. To emphasize our point, we could say, for example, that two public figures, fervent regulars of the Puces de Saint-Ouen, each own several – but for the sake of confidentiality, we will say nothing. As we wouldn't go so far as to say that it's the most anticipated exhibition of the end of the year, but we could well be. Except that we're not like that. “I EXHIBIT” • @COLINEISCOOL • SOLO SHOW From Saturday, November 30, 2024 The Square • Serpette Market • Aisle 3 stand 9 110, rue des Rosiers 93400 Saint-Ouen
