The MAAB Gallery is pleased to present Nun, a solo show by the French artist Vincent Beaurin (1960; he lives and works in Paris). 

In Egyptian mythology, Nun was one of the Ogdoad, the eight divinities that formed the primordial forces descended from the essence of Chaos: Nun, an entity of the primordial waters, was an ether without volume or form; it was inert from the very beginning and extended throughout the cosmos.

The MAAB Gallery opens its new series of exhibitions in its venue in Padua with Flashback, a group show devoted to the five artists presented last year in Milan: Carmelo Arden Quin, Nanni Balestrini, Bruno Munari, Susanne Kutter, and Axel Lieber.

Susanne Kutter, born in Wernigerode, Germany, in 1971 but who today lives in Berlin, is presenting a series of new works specifically conceived for the rooms of the gallery. Susanne Kutter’s video and installation work has always been centred on the mechanisms that create and deposit certainties and expectations in each of us, only then to elude them and frustrate them through small and large everyday catastrophes.

The MAAB Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of Más alla del marco [Beyond the Frame], a solo show by the Uruguayan artist, poet, and intellectual Carmelo Arden Quin (1913-2010).
