The Foundation is open 365 days a year. Exhibitions are free of charge from 9am to 6:30pm.
Practical information“Ronald Cyrille has loved drawing since his childhood, whether the cartoons seen on television, the fresco of the church in the village of Calibishie or the pious pictures and the photos in the living-room of his English-speaking grandmother in Dominica. On his return to Guadeloupe at the age of nine, he was able to communicate thanks to his pencil line while revising his French, which allowed him to “speak without bubbles”, as he liked to say.
With Brainstorming, his third solo exhibition, he invites us to meet his pictorial universe, “birds, dogs, fish, men, young urban people or surreal protagonists, hybrid figures with long limbs, various accessories and tree branches adorned with a few scattered leaves, that connect them to Mother Nature. Ronald Cyrille stages them all on canvas, sifting through them or scrutinising his memories and observations with humour tinged with references to the history of art.”
