Ingeborg Lüscher, “Flammes”
26 March – 26 July 2026, 26 March – 26 July 2026
Centre culturel suisse. Paris
From sulfur to ashes, from embers to wreaths of smoke, “Flammes” explores the vitality of fire and its creative and unruly force.
In retracing the practice of Ingeborg Lüscher (born in Germany in 1936, lives and works in Ticino), the exhibition reveals the relationship with conflagration that the artist has been developing since her first experiments up to this day. In the late 1960, Ingeborg Lüscher began a course of sculptural, pictorial, and performative research that has never ceased to preoccupy her. She also deploys a unique photographic practice, documenting her close family and friends, her encounters, and the landscapes she traverses on voyages or in her daily life. Since 1975, the artist has also composed conceptual and autobiographic works revolving around chance, love, and dreams.
“Flammes” explores the heat of a rich artistic career sustained by a continual quest for transformation, as well as by a profound interest in material, bodies, and cycles of destruction and renewal, of absence and rebirth.
