If your summer travels take you to the South of France, Château La Coste is a must, a breathtaking spot only 20 minutes from Aix-en-Provence. In a region rich with art history and cultural heritage, as well as excellent wines (Château La Coste sits amidst its own sumptuous vineyards) Château La Coste offers fine dining and exceptional contemporary art across art spaces designed by the likes of Tadao Ando and Oscar Niemeyer.
This summer season offers an exhibition by Joel Mesler, the celebrated Californian artist, known for lush, large, colourful canvases with bold leaf motifs that play with typography and image. Mesler’s exhibition “Me, you and the sunset” is a new body of work inspired by Provence: its sunsets, iridescence and the shifting light over the verdant landscapes that surround Château La Coste.
Alongside the paintings, Mesler presents a ‘beach ball’ sculpture, cast in bronze. Like Mesler’s paintings, what at first appears to be breezy and joyful, the quintessence of summer, often then surprise with more difficult and knotty emotions, reflecting for example on our complicated relationship with nature, or moments in the artist’s own personal life journey.
