Barry Flanagan Solutions Imaginaires closes on the 11th of May at Galerie LeLong. Flanagan had many connections to Paris, he was a life-long ‘pataphysican, a keen reader of Alfred Jarry, and had a flat there. Jarry defined ’pataphysics as the science of imaginary solutions, and the exhibition takes its title from the ’pataphyical nature of Flanagan’s work. It brings together works on paper from 1968 such as ‘Collage ’68’ (1968) (illustrated below) and the bronzes of 1980 to 2009, such as ‘Double Bell’ (1980) ‘Medium Monument’ (1996) and ‘Large Troubador’ (2004) (illustrated above).
