Installation view of the exhibition “La Couleur en fugue”,
featuring the artwork Splinter (acrylic on plywood, wall and floor, 1750 × 1000 × 2200 cm).
Monumental and immersive installation, Splinter unfolds vast painted volumes that transform the highest gallery of the fondation Louis Vuitton into a vibrant space of color and movement.
Upstream of the pictorial intervention, CHD ART MAKER worked in coordination with the artist’s studio, the engineers, the Fondation’s teams, and the delegated production to translate the installation’s volumetric structure into concrete technical solutions, and to carry out its fabrication and installation. Katharina Grosse then took over the entire structure with her spectacular pictorial gesture.
CHD ART MAKER finally oversaw the dismantling of the installation at the end of its presentation.
