Founded in 2012, Galerie Sébastien Bertrand is a contemporary art gallery situated in Eaux-Vives that primarily represents young and emerging international artists. The gallery focuses on new figurative practices, hosting an average of four solo exhibitions annually, alongside one curated show. Many artists have had their first solo or European solo exhibition here, with the gallery serving as both an incubator and a springboard for their careers.
Natalia González Martín presents eleven new oil paintings on panel that extend her sustained engagement with still life. Drawing on the visual language of Baroque and Counter-Reformation masters such as Juan Sánchez Cotán and Francisco Zurbarán, the works turn toward the ritual of sobremesa — the suspended time after a meal — and consider it as a gendered social space. Set against tenebrist backgrounds, plates, fruit, glasses and fragments of bodies emerge to reorient still life from display and possession toward duration, relation and the often-invisible labour of togetherness.
