Exhibition in Les Terrasses d’Antipolis

07.01.11

“Petits Formats” 10 – 24 December

Femmes du Monde

In the Terminal 1 and 2 business centers of Nice Aéroport, the exhibition “Femmes du Monde” can be admired. It is an interesting collection of paintings and sculptures by a heterogenuous group of  artists with the same intriguing theme, known as "the woman"!

Three of the participating artists are related to the Pink Ribbon charity - they are Wim Teunissen, Fiona Biziou both painted one month in the Pink Ribbon calendar, as did Marina Kulik, who has painted several aquarelles in support of Pink Ribbon, the association helping women and men around the world in their fight against breast cancer

"For this exhibition, Nice Aéroport has chosen three of my « Pink Ribbon » portraits, picturing Amanda, Francien and Minou! They are on display on a prominent spot, with a couple of other portraits of women...

The exhibition is open until the 22d of October

Art Contemporain Valbonne II

Since Thursday 2 September I'm in the Salon d' Art Contemporain in Valbonne... It is an enormous collection of a large number of very different artists and galleries, local and international. There are several big tents and I am in the building together with my sculptor friend Patience (stand A20 - "Kulik & Devas"), with a very nice stand, showing a couple of MyDNA paintings, a "cell" and lots of "multicolour roses" in several sizes. And, a great advantage in the still hot South French weather, Airco! Yess...  Sunday is the last day - we expect a lot of visitors - and sales.

And then on to the next one: "Aquarellistas in Provence"!

Stand Kulik & Devas

Exhibition in Rumania

From 12 August to 28 August, 6 paintings of Marina Kulik will be exhibited in "Galeria de Artă ”Cupola” in Iasi, during "The International Annual Holotropic Art Symposium" of 2010. The work is made especially for this exhibition, the 12 international artists that were chosen to participate, created their art on the music of Rumanian composer Edi Apostu.

"Edi's music is intriguing, etheric and unsettling at the same time and playing it while designing made me use other forms and shapes. I also wanted to work in a less transparent, more defined way that required another material - so I stepped back from aquarelle and used a mix of oil, acrylics and felt pen. The colours are much brighter and the shapes much sharper and more intense. I made one big painting on six smaller canvases and then found that they were all works in their own right, that are all telling their own story. So I decided to show and sell them seperately and if one is sold, I'll make a new one in it's place that will change the "whole" of six. And I'll keep track of that with my camera, so in the years it will hopefully develop into something completely different. It was a great, inspiring project and I learned tremendously from it..."

After the exhibit in Rumania the work will move to Italy. More news about that later! For more information on the Holotropic Art Symposium visit http://www.holotropic.eu/

Art Supermarket in Valbonne

Super Marché de l’Art

July is the month of street theatre festival in Valbonne, and within that, the artothèque of Valbonne organises a "Super Marché de l’Art" - an Art Supermarket, from 9 to 11 July.

This supermarket is an exhibition combined with the possibility to buy original artworks (paintings, sculptures and objects), built up like a traditional supermarket! The visitors can shop and fill their baskets with original artwork - or just admire!

Creativity and humor will surprise the public, there will be stands where the artists are demonstrating - and you may be invited to join in. There is a very special wine stand, a fish "rayon" and much more... One of the 15 artists who present their work is Aquarellista Marina Kulik. She will present her Multicolour Roses, and the necklaces, bracelets and earrings she designed for Dutch jewelry brand "MERRL" in that same theme. 

The Supermarché de l'art takes place from 9 - 11 July

Artour in Villeneuve

Citadelle Villeneuve Loubet

On June 19th Marina Kulik exhibited her abstract aquarelles and demonstrated the noble art of aquarelle during  "ARTOUR" 2010 in the Citadelle of Villeneuve Loubet (property of the Marquis de Panisse)

The exhibition targeted the business people of Sophia Antipolis, the high-tech area of the Côte d'Azur, "our" Silicon Valley.

The participating artists had put up their artwork (paintings and sculptures) outside in the courtyard, the sun was shining and they were giving demonstrations and telling the interested visitors about their work...

And then it started to rain!
"Luckily there were lots of plastic, I could cover my precious aquarelles, they were not damaged - the demo's were very wet-in-wet from that moment onwards. An hour later the sun came back and stayed for the day. My work looked good in the evening sun with the shadows of the palmtrees!"

"Homes collection" Last month I was approached (via the website) by the editor of  the Russian Real Estate Magazine  "Homes collection": They found me through my website and asked if they could use one of my paintings - and  (to make a long story short) of course they could, and it all worked out fine!

So in the June 2010 edition, an aquarelle by Marina Kulik is featured...

And not only that - the editorial mentions my "subtle mysterious and poetic" way of painting and there is a full page print with a rose on page 47... I don't really read Russian, but I can recognise certain words,  and it looks great like this don't you think :) I am very proud and the good thing is also that I have now also joined them as an illustrator!!
