<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">I
secluded myself in my studio for 8 years (2002-2009), discovered hand
embroidery (an endangered medium) and trained 9 deaf and mute Vietnamese
girls in an embroidery technique using one thread. It is only since July 2009 that I
decided that I was ready to exhibit my work.</span></span><br />

<i style="font-family: arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">- J’accorde de l’importance aux carrés, à leurs formes basiques. La surenchère qui nous incite à toujours rechercher des formes nouvelles est due à notre époque de surconsommation. </span></span></i><br />
<i style="font-family: arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">- J’agis aussi par critique envers la saturation de la production qui en cherchant à se différencier va jusqu'à rendre la forme plus importante que le fond.<br />
- Je préfère exploiter les carrés et les faire évoluer plutôt que de chercher à (m’) imposer (par) des formes nouvelles.<br />
- J’ai axé mon travail sur la sensibilité, l’émotion et non sur les canons de beauté, la beauté évidente (pur, celle se rapprochant de la perfection).<br />
<br />
- La répétition a elle aussi son importance dans mon travail, car elle finit par libérer mon geste jusqu’a devenir non réfléchi, simplement automatique, elle amène à quelque chose de naturel, de léger, j’ai l’impression alors que l’âme de la création en cours s’en dégage. </span></span></i><br />
<i style="font-family: arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">- Je chercher à dégager des sentiments de vie de réalité du quotidien, car même si mes gestes répétitifs ne sont pas forcement visible sur chacune de mes créations, ils correspondent à tous nos gestes quotidiens, et l’œuvre se construit ainsi par tous ces petits riens qui font notre vie. </span></span></i><br />

<h4>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The Soul of Repetition: The Embroidery of Lionel Descostes</span></h4>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">In the past we have seen a number of contemporary artists who have taken on the Vietnamese lacquer technique and reinvented it for their artistic practice. French artist Lionel Descostes is the first one who does the same with Vietnamese embroidery, moving it out of the realm of traditional craft and semi-artistic production catering to tourism, onto the stage of contemporary art. The show <a href="http://hanoigrapevine.com/2011/02/embroidery-exhibition-by-lionel-descostes/" target="_self">Du trait au fil</a>, which opened on 15 Feb at the French cultural center L’Espace, exhibits the results of his engagement and preoccupation with the medium. </span></span><br />
<span id="more-37105"></span><br />
<div class="wp-caption alignleft" id="attachment_37207" style="width: 210px;">
<img alt="Lionel Descostes" class="size-full wp-image-37207" height="200" src="http://hanoigrapevine.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Lionel-Descostes1.jpg" title="Lionel-Descostes" width="149" /><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The body of work in the exhibition loosely falls into two groups. One is more austere and takes the shape of the square, one of the most basic shapes, as point of departure. In “Les carres et les cousins”/“The squares and their family” (2008), rows of squares, in slight variations and looking imperfect by the nature of hand-made work, fill the canvas in anonymity, refusing to stand out. The green and yellow on black background give a humble, unagitated feel similar to stitched decorations of some mountainous minorities. Most captivating is “Humeur du jour 6” (2006), a series of five large formats, showing straight, finely tuned pastel lines forming dense grids which, in their 3D quality, almost hover above the white background. Standing up close, eyes following the criss-cross of the lines for a while, one starts to feel an hypnotic pull exerted by the pictures.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: small;">The other group of works are more playful, most are of smaller size and very different to the squares inspired works. Some, like the series “Famille heureuse” / “Happy family” (2008) (again, the theme of family!) look like simple, conventional drawings, half ornaments, half morphed jelly-fish. Others, like “Rencontres” / “Reunion” (2008) or “Mode d’emploi” / “Instruction manual” (2008), are loose collections of curvy lines, arranged into a careful mess and placed right in the center, against patches of bright colors. The way these works deploy fully colored surfaces defies expectations of sketchy pictures one often has with traditional embroidery.</span></span><br />

<h5 style="text-align: center;">
</h5>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">The L’Espace show is the second one of the artist in Hanoi, and compared to the <a href="http://hanoigrapevine.com/2010/10/lionel-descostes-at-bui-gallery/" target="_self">exhibition in Bui Gallery</a> last November, Descostes seems to make a different choice of what to present; most notably the pop art oriented works of last year are absent, which makes the current show more cohesive. On the opening night, Descostes came in a white shirt and jeans. He is a middle-aged man who has a calm and thoughtful look, exactly like someone who has spent years in a solitary studio, devoting himself to the lonely, laborious and repetitive work of hand stitching. For him, the process is important. His statements are full of terse numbers which a matter-of-fact document the latest period of his life: 10 years in Hanoi, 8 years in a secluded studio, 9 speech- and hearing-impaired assistants. But Descostes does not see repetitive labor as a necessary evil he has to endure; for him repetition has an emotional significance. A simple line on a drawing would take just a quick hand movement. The same line, embroidered, would take thousands of stitches. An embroidery work is made up of a sheer enormity of simple, unspectacular gestures, exactly like the way we live our lives.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Internationally, stitching techniques have established a firm place in the practices of contemporary artists. According to David McFadden from Museum of Arts and Design, New York, embroidery began to surface in the contemporary art world in the last decades of the 20th century. While at first it was used mostly by female artists who came from the association it has with women’s work, this distinction is gone and nowadays men and women alike are exploring stitching techniques to express their artistic ideas. In 2007, the museum organized a terrific international show called “Pricked: Extreme Embroidery” showing a stunningly wide range of embroidery works of 48 artists from 17 countries. In Vietnam’s art scene, the work of Lionel Descostes is refreshing: you don’t need to do video or performance to be contemporary; you can tear down barriers between genres and bring up innovative perspectives by going back to techniques and materials dating from ancient times.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Lionel Descostes’ show “Du trait au fil” runs from 15 Feb to 4 Mar 2011, at L’Espace – 24 Tràng Tiền, Hà Nội.</span></span><br />

<h4>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Beautifully Stitched Up</span></h4>
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">I think that just about everyone would find something to love at the Bui Gallery’s latest offering. The exhibition is called ‘<a href="http://hanoigrapevine.com/2010/10/lionel-descostes-at-bui-gallery/" target="_blank">Ten Years in Hanoi (Embroidery Work)</a>’ which could, perhaps, imply that embroidery sits in the craft category or that the exhibitor is a craftsperson rather than an artist. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Not that this matters as most crafts have always had outstanding and innovative practitioners whose work is prominently displayed in major museums of art throughout the world and nowadays a plethora of artists/craftpersons amalgamate art and craft techniques into their practices and blur the boundaries that purists like to lay down.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Bui exhibitor, Lionel Descostes, has added a new dimension to embroidery in Vietnam not that Vietnam is short of brilliant embroiderers. I’m sure that Descostes would attest to that and quickly name a score or two and much of his work would hold its own any first rate, fine arts gallery.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">My favorite works are the abstract ones. The grid of 32 small works that make up “Influences” (2006) are really stunning. Like so much of Descostes work, it’s the presentation that takes the work from excellent to WOW! This is shown to huge effect in another stunning work downstairs, ‘The First One’( 2003) in its lime green lacquer frame that refers to and balances the gorgeously embroidered grid.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Upstairs I was totally captivated and mesmerized by the four ‘Square Sets’(2006) that allow your eyes to journey on, into and through the threads.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">When he adds faces and masks to his work he loses me a bit, though I still really love exploring the detailed often layered hand embroidery. I’m in a minority of viewers when I state that the figurative touches don’t move me. Most, though, will drool over the exceedingly clever ‘Mutation’ (2004) and the fascinating ‘Creation’ series (2008).</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">You can see why the theatrical and attention arresting ‘Competition’ (2005) sold immediately, with its muted silvers and hints of rich red on a black background and a slight resonance, some may suggest, to Klimt .</span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Anyone with a passion for embroidery would be rather silly to miss this exhibition and likewise any art lovers who just want to see a selection of beautifully displayed, beautiful art.</span></span><br />
