1 / In the Gallery, until July 10
Dark Matter, a solo show by Luc Mattenberger
For his first solo exhibition at Analix Forever, Luc Mattenberger offers to take over the gallery's area with a new installation that will guide us through time flow, space and, of course, machines. Machines that can both help to straighten what time has loosened, and loosen what men have straightened. Mattenberger, the "transcendental mechanic", is also interested in the physics behind every link, specifically between dark matter and light.

Cars & Bikes, a group show with Elisabetta Benassi, Shaun Gladwell, Thomas Lindvig, Tuomo Manninnen, Andrea Mastrovito, Luc Mattenberger, Robert Montgomery, Xavier Veilhan, Patrick Weidmann
After men's beauty (Handsome, 2006) and men's labor (Working Men, 2008), Analix Forever is proposing still another very masculine exhibition centered on cars and bikes, these esthetic and sexual objects fully integrated in our history, dreams and world. Cars & Bikes is a modest tribute to the myths of Eros and Thanatos they both convey, to speed, mechanical beauty and human endless imagination. Curated by Barbara Polla.
