The World vs Monsanto on May 25, 2013

In Europe, #March Against Monsanto Is Latest Rejection of the GMO Giant. 
"Even while an official ban on GM crops is still absent in most of the E.U. member states, regions and municipalities have taken 
initiative to define themselves as GMO-free zones: in Belgium (entire Wallonia), Finland, Italy, Latvia, the Netherlands, Portugal, 
Romania, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden and the UK, regional GMO bans are widely in place."

- Exposing Monsanto's greed

"The World According to Monsanto" - a 2008 Marie-Monique Robin investigation.
Coproduction: ARTE France, Image et Compagnie, Thalia Productions, National Film Board of Canada, WDR.

"With operations in 46 countries, Monsanto has become the world leader in genetically modified organisms 
(GMOs), as well as one of the most controversial corporations in industrial history. Since its founding in 1901, 
the U.S. multinational has faced trial after trial due to the toxicity of its products. Today, it has reinvented itself 
as a "life sciences" company converted to the virtues of sustainable development. Calling on hitherto 
unpublished documents and first-hand accounts by victims, scientists and politicians, The World According to
Monsanto pieces together the story of an industrial giant that, thanks in part to lies, collusion with the American 
government, pressure tactics and attempted corruption, has become one of the world's leading seed 
manufacturers, spreading GM crops worldwide with no real monitoring of their effects on nature or human 
health."

Viswanadhan featured at Pascaline Mulliez Gallery

The Pascaline Mulliez Gallery 
is pleased to present 
a selection of works 
by the artist 
Velu Viswanadhan. 

These works cover the period from 1990 
to 2004. 

Opening on April 25 - until June 29, 2013

[G@ttoGiallo]



Why and how were these works chosen?   

 I discovered Viswanadhan recently. The artist, however, has been around for quite some time, stopping in Paris in the 
1960s, where he was noticed and supported by a major Paris gallery. In 2012, at the Fernand Léger Gallery (Ivry-sur-
Seine), I saw his paintings for the first time, which left me both confused and astonished, a sign that his work was taking 
me along paths to places I had never before explored. Among the works shown, one in particular caught my attention, 
and it is from this work (dated 2001) that the selection being exhibited here today was constituted. This selection covers 
a pivotal period in the development of Viswanadhan’s art.

The background of the paintings of that period is white, while the pigments used come from India. Green, red, yellow 
ochre and blue mixed with casein are applied in wide, flat transparent or opaque strokes, organising the painting 
geometrically. Through layer after layer of brush strokes, a subtle play of colours slowly appears. Visually, the 
sensations are shimmering, almost earthy. Varying transparencies and opacities are irregularly woven into the painting, 
inventing endlessly new tonalities and giving off a rare brightness.

Viswanadhan stands over the stretched canvas when he works, a position that he had already adopted as a child, 
when he was tracing the signs of tantric rituals in the sand. Large brush strokes infuse the space of his painting with a 
rhythm, which the artist regularly brings to a halt at the centre of his work, or almost. This simple act suffices to introduce 
an irregular element into the geometric design created by the alternating application of colours. Slowly and regularly, the
strokes follow the same movement, straight and repetitive, while the body moves and revolves around the canvas 
placed on the floor or on a table in the artist’s studio.

The selection of works by Velu Viswanadhan proposed here aims to show the point where the achievements of Indian
culture come together with those of contemporary art; a point of precious equilibrium between uniqueness and 
contemporaneousness.
