The FIAF Gallery presents a special site-specific installation
by Sydney Albertini, a young French-American artist currently
living in New York.
This exhibition is the second half of Albertini’s two-part
series, éphémère. The first part, shown in New York
in December 2010, presented large-scale drawings that will
be brought to life in this more immersive and participatory
second installation.
Albertini’s works, compelling in their graphic quality
and magnetic abstraction, capture the intimate moments of
our quotidian routines. Invoking movement, color, and textiles,
her drawings evoke not only fashion, but the essence of human
movement and the nature of color, and strive to highlight
the beauty of the ephemeral in our daily lives.
