Based on an original idea by R.Jonathan Lambert, the gallery
is pleased to present A Hundred Years of Chess an exhibition
showcasing the infl uence of chess on contemporary art. In
Jean-Philippe Delhomme’s still life Fleurs et jeu d’échecs, Gregor
Hildebrandt’s pawn sculpture, and the paintings of Garance Matton,
chess takes center stage. For Lionel Estève and Lee Bae, it
emerges as a poetic evocation, while in Nick Doyle’s work, it
becomes a playful allusion. The exhibition juxtaposes historical
works, such as Michel Journiac’s and Marcel Duchamp’s chess set
(1993 and 1944), as well as sculptures by Lynn Chadwick (1970)
and Man Ray (1948 and 1971), with photographs by William Wegman
(2015) and Martin Parr (1997), highlighting the enduring appeal of
chess to artists across generations
