“It all starts with chocolate...When the art of mastering it simply becomes Art.I am one of those outsiders, off the beaten track, who create their own mark.Coming from nowhere and therefore from everywhere.No museum before the age of 24, no drawing classes and even fewer Fine Arts,I was born like this.I started working with chocolate in sculpture in the 2000s.The instinctive love of aesthetics.An insolent mastery of the material pushes me to create again and again,always faster.Physical strengths,moral forces,strong forces and weak forces in parallel with the fragility of chocolate and the robustness of metal.Eternal ephemeral.Gentleness and brutality.”PATRICK ROGER
In the heart of a natural setting, and a stone’s throw from Saint-Tropez, Château Saint-Maur Cru Classé is a major player in the AOC Côtes de Provence. The estate operates 100 hectares of vines which deliver, through a collection of classified vintage wines, a sublime interpretation of Provence.
Through its cultural enrichments, Château Saint-Maur today represents a real place of cultural encounters visited by a seasoned and amateur public, French and international. It promotes both territorial and artistic heritage coming from multiple horizons.
PATRICK ROGER, Power of Matter is an anticipated event among the cultural events of the summer in Provence. The artist will transform the Chai into an authentic, inspiring and exclusive place, dialoguing with the architecture, the history of the place and nature. Through this unique exhibition dedicated to the work of Patrick Roger, STAY TUNED gallery intends to introduce the world of Patrick Roger, both to contemporary art collectors and to the general public, French and international.
This exhibition aims to stimulate visitor creativity and create an atmosphere that enriches the customer experience by providing emotional resonance. Our wish is to share similar objectives by associating tangible comfort to the intangible aspects of social interaction, in order to trigger emotions. United by the desire to inspire great stories, we believe this exhibition will enhance creativity and communication in a way that collectors will feel something enriching, while relaxing and enjoying their visit.
