Jean-Marc Hunt at 193 Gallery
Mary-Lou Ngwe-Secke, head of curation at the Paris-based 193 gallery, praised 1-54’s Marrakech fair for its small size, which “allows a certain proximity with artists and collectors,” she said. This year, in an attempt to reach them, Secke has organized a presentation called “The Moment After,” which features three Caribbean artists who explore creolization of the world, or the means by which various cultures blend. “Why the Caribbean art scene? Simply to draw more attention to it,” Secke said.
In addition to the Bahamian artist April Bey’s figurative tapestries and the Haitian artist Adler Guerrier’s landscape collages, there is work by French painter Jean-Marc Hunt, who showed in the 2019 Venice Biennale. He has been living in Guadeloupe for the past 15 years, and draws in black on colorful backgrounds that look as tormented as they are distorted. His canvases are where his memory of French streets and his current experience of Guadeloupean gardens meet. These are works that embody the zigs and zags of history, with drips of paint and letters that refer to his beginnings as a graffiti artist.
