Domaine des Carlines is located in the tiny village of Menétru-le Vignoble, part of the “Château Chalon” appellation.

This has been created by Patrick and Sophie Ligeron in 2015, when an opportunity to take over the renting of 5 hectares of vines came up.

Patrick Ligeron being born in Jura and, with his wife Sophie, being in the wine business for a long time, they both have been looking for an opportunity to create their own Domaine in Jura for years and it finally paid off.

The Domaine is set on the best parcels from the Château Chalon appellation, spread over the 3 villages of Château-Chalon, Menétru-le Vignoble and Domblans. The Vineyard has expanded in 2018 with the acquisition of a further 6 hectares bringing the Domaine to a surface area of 11hactares. The domain owns now 10% of the total appellation of Château-Chalon, which is exceptional. The vines are between 30 to 45 years old and in perfect condition.

The vineyard is conducted into a sustainable process with the target to convert into an organic process in few years’ time. The choice has been made to maintain grass plots to avoid herbicides.

Bending the Multiverse by G. Luigi Rossi

This exhibition, created over 8 months at Aldabra Atelier 2, releases selected works by German artist G.Luigi Rossi.

The artist re-enters, re-considers and re-positions his perception on some, for him, inspirational masterpieces written by Isaac Asimov, Frank Herbert and JJ.Abrams.

Acoustically surrounded by multiple compositions of the late Klaus Schulze, the artist also created some oversized works. Once more, imagining a screen, like at the movies, on which Rossi transfers his perceptions, senses, and moods.

These artworks are directly relatable to his -From Hesse to Asimov- which was released in 2016 as part of The Giants collection.

“All painted works are created on canvas with Kata4art acrylics. I am thankful to Kata4art production, I candidly requested 3 different specific formulations for the occasion, and in very short time they got approved and supplied, for which I am extremely grateful. Won’t exclude that Bending the Multiverse could also represent a turning point for my future works”, the artist said.

Two standalone vertical compositions will also be on display this exhibition.

“To push boundaries you need support. These are the my pieces that required most effort and patience from the technical partners of AMA associates. But it was a fulfilling journey as it gave us a lot of experience and know-how”, Rossi concluded.

A collaboration between Pawl Carbonaro, Lino Borg, Justin Falzon, and Jesmond Vassallo, the event brings together the narrative, ideas, and experiences of each artist through a collection of original prints made with two distinct techniques: intaglio and stone lithography.

The intaglio techniques seen here include aquatint, dry-point, etching, and soft-ground; while the lithographic techniques used are tusche and crayon. Despite these being traditional techniques that have been used for centuries, the artists have masterfully used and adapted them to their contemporary ideas.
