"In the depths of winter, I finally learned that within me, there lay an invincible summer"—Albert Camus, "Return to Tipasa," 1953
Municipal Bonds is pleased to announce our participation in Invincible Summer, a group show presented in collaboration with the tenant galleries at Minnesota Street Project.
The title is inspired by a quote from Albert Camus' "Return to Tipasa" essay: "In the depths of winter, I finally learned that within me there lay an invincible summer." Conceived in the early weeks of the Covid-19 pandemic, the exhibition features a range of works which speaks to holding faith in the face of a challenge.
We are delighted to show a selection of Yvette Taminiau's works, wherein humanity finds hope in beauty, dreams, and nature. Taminiau's newsprint paintings comprise a dialogue between the artist and the page. She transforms newspaper pages in an associative manner, responding to the images, headlines, articles, and the layout of the page. Her approach is intuitive and suggestive—while her academic background, with its strong reliance on analytical frameworks, is reflected in her selection of topics and articles from the newspapers. Dutch, French, and English news act as her referential canvas, from economic issues to political coverage to cultural icons.
The exhibition is available to view online through the Minnesota Street Project Adjacent website. To visit in person, first make a reservation.
