Marc Didou- Magnetic Attractions

curated by Silvia Casini
The Naughton Gallery at Queen's
Lanyon Building, Belfast
october 20 - december 1, 2007

A chance to see the work of Marc Didou, internationally acclaimed French artist, exhibiting for the first time in the UK and Ireland. Didou's dramatic layered sculptures, created using a cutting-edge medical imaging technology, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) along with anamorphic mirrors, surprise and intrigue the viewer.
In Didou's sculptures, reflected images coexist with marble, bronze and wood. What you see as an abstract monolith suddenly reveals its other face. In this exhibition, curated by Silvia Casini, sculpture shows its lines of attraction with MRI and cinema. The particular use Didou makes of MRI represents a felicitous encounter between science and art, where MRI is set free from the scientific laboratory and made accessible to the public in the form of sculptures.
