Christine Rebet
Christine Rebet was born in 1971 in Lyon, France. She studied painting and scenography at the Art Academy in Venice and theater design at Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design in London. Rebet's hand-drawn, enigmatic animations serve as a stage for her unfettered imagination. Surreal vignettes featuring characters rendered in cartoon-like forms reveal a world that is magical, bizarre, and subtly unnerving.
Rebet's work has been exhibited at the Shanghai Art Museum; the Musée d'Art Contemporain in Lyon; and the Moderna Museet.
The Dissolve
A paradigm shift in contemporary art is rare and hard to recognize at its inception, but that is what curators Sarah Lewis and Daniel Belasco did in The Dissolve, SITE SANTA FE’s Eighth International Biennial. The curators presented a new sensibility in the art of our time, a mingling of up-to-the-minute technology and traditional visual arts (painting, drawing, and sculpture) with dance, music, and film. The fundamental form of this new work was animation, uniting the technological (the camera) with the handmade (drawing).
