EXPOSITION DU 3 OCTOBRE AU 16 DÉCEMBRE 2024
VERNISSAGE LE 3 OCTOBRE à 19h

« Dans le monde d’angoisses où nous vivons actuellement, Silva Usta cherche un apaisement, qu’elle voudrait partager avec vous. Par un regroupement de vieilles dentelles et de photos de la Belle Époque niçoise, dans une exposition dans un hôtel de style : Le Grimaldi.
Vielles dentelles de la belle-mère, anciennes photos de Nice, vieux cadres chinés, tout cela fera un bel ensemble qui vous enchantera ! »

Hôtel le Grimaldi, un écrin sublime

L’établissement invite les visiteurs à une déambulation artistique débutant dans le hall et se poursuivant dans les salles de l’hôtel. Baptisée » Artscénique aux vieilles dentelles », cette exposition présente une quarantaine de créations réalisées spécialement pour l’hôtel par l’artiste Silva Usta.

À la fois délicates et raffinées, ces œuvres sont des représentations d’anciennes photographies de Nice, rappelant les souvenirs vibrants de la Belle Époque et des Années folles. Ces périodes sont marquées par une richesse culturelle dont la façade de l’hôtel, réalisée par l’architecte Charles Dalmas en 1904, en est un précieux témoin.

Partage et Nostalgie, photos et dentelles

Les dentelles de Munich que l’artiste utilise, racontent une histoire riche et profonde : « Les napperons de cette exposition proviennent de ma belle-mère qui a passé son enfance, avec ces tissus de famille, à Munich », explique Silva Usta. Au-delà de la photographie et du travail minutieux sur les napperons, l’artiste, qui a son propre atelier en plein cœur de Nice, cherche avant tout à transmettre un sentiment de partage et de nostalgie.

Cette collaboration est née d’un coup de cœur réciproque entre Silva Usta et Victor Huelamo, le directeur de l’Hôtel Le Grimaldi, renforçant ainsi l’esprit d’ouverture et de créativité qui règne au sein de l’établissement.

Hôtel Le Grimaldi**** by Happy Culture,
15 Rue Grimaldi, 06000 Nice..

Silva's latest creations

Silva Usta was invited for an eclectic exhibition of her latest works at the Dodo café on the Port of Nice, 5 Place Islands of Beauty.

A great opportunity to discover the artist's recent creations through abstract paintings and colorful drawings. There is no real message, just the pleasure of finding an aesthetic of colors where the spirit of the artist and the spectator can travel through the simple assembly of colors made of fire and water, that is to say willingly… of splashing red and crackling blue.

Look at me !

Silva’s exhibition is dedicated to Annie and Benoit Vautier, said Ben. Because one did not go without the other and they wanted to meet in time for eternity. To the life, to love !

Silva hooked 3 of her delicious and sensual self-portraits. Certainly a great opportunity to tell the world that she is obviously cuter and sexier than the first pirate to use the formula to get noticed in what will become, thanks to him, the Nice school.

Look at us, look at you, watch the world, he is handsome !

At Café Dodo on the port of Nice

The exhibition takes place from 6 June 31 august 2024 at Café Dodo on the port of Nice, 5 Isle of Beauty square.

A highly requested exhibition

Invited by the municipality of COURBEVOIE, SILVA USTA presented his now famous drawing creation PIONEERING WOMEN for the 8 mars 2024. This is part of a traveling exhibition in various public places such as town halls., schools, maternity wards, hospitals, and other public institutions. All this on the occasion of course of World Women's Rights Day celebrated on 8 March all over the world.

A collective fight

Invested in the fight against violence against women, the CCAS de Courbevoie wishes to acquire a series of works created by Madame Silva USTA in order to organize an exhibition highlighting women who have marked history. The objective is to free speech and denounce all acts of violence through art.. The exhibition created by the artist, entitled “Pioneer Women”, must make it possible to change mentalities among the general public on this social issue.

exhibition from 8 December 2023 to the 19 mars 2024 at the Les Violettes library, 41, rue de Colombes, Courbevoie.

A highly requested exhibition

As part of major events organized throughout France for Women's Rights Day, the City of Nice asked Silva Usta for its artistic exhibition of Pioneer Women. In conjunction with the exhibition in Courbevoie, Nice town hall has made its pergolas on the Promenade des Anglais available to install replicas of the artist's now famous work : Pioneer Women.

It is always with great pleasure that Silva Usta presents the Women who have left their mark on Science, Literature, Arts, the economy, the morals and politics of Modern Times. She continues to be dazzled by the sisters who have left their mark on History, and, paying tribute to them, it is the older and younger generations that she calls to educate themselves, never forgetting the struggles and victories that allowed women to exist and become free to improve the world.

Carried by the strong message of the artist, the town halls of Nice and Courbevoie responded with determination and strong conscience to Silva Usta's proposal.

The 8 mars 2024 under the pergolas…

Originally scheduled for 8 March under the pergolas of the Prom’, the weather outside did not allow the opening of the exhibition in place. Get ready, the grand opening will take place very soon in the presence of Maty Diouf, Deputy Mayor and Metropolitan Councilor !

The skits of Silva Usta

As Michel Sajn would say, Director of La Strada : we can't stop Silva Usta !

His art always takes new forms with great back and forth between his disciplines and this time Silva offers skits with manga figurines against the backdrop of atmospheric photos taken and processed in 3D of our beautiful region of Azur.

We are back in the heart of a light atmosphere, soft and pleasant where the characters depicted can relax and experience an insolent carelessness of their youth and their beauty.

The whole thing gives a great air of lightness and freedom..

Silva Usta, a committed artist

Always very present with women around the world, Silva Usta also likes to respond to requests for mutual help when they affect humans in difficulty and in search of equality.. Here, help for children handicapped by blindness who can benefit from the best and faithful friend of humans, companion dogs, could only delight and touch her !

holidays ! is an artistic and cultural mobilization to fight against sexist and sexual violence.

Here is the 4th edition of this Nice festival organized by different associations and services of Rue Trachel in Nice. Of 11 March to April 1 2023.

Silva Usta presented to cash her now famous Women Pioneers exhibition.

Pioneer Women

Those who advance rights,
Those who struggle,
Those who defend themselves,
Those who still suffer
and those who finally carry the world.

Silva creates, with a heart in perpetual labor, a constant interaction between the centuries and the plurality of paths. Some famous names and others more veiled participate in this universal unity. Willingness, challenge and perseverance are the engines of fundamental change : live your life freely and choose your destiny !

Here is a dialogue that explains the whole problem :

– Oh women's day. It's a good idea to celebrate femininity, the beauty, sweetness, the kindness of women. What would we be without their ability to raise children, to keep a clean home, cooking and making our laundry so soft ?..

– No but Alchy, you have no shame ? (I know you are joking, it's to make me talk !) It's Women's Rights Day. ! The one who recognizes their equality and equity with men. The right to study, to have a job, to emancipate oneself from the patriarchy of our old societies. It is a day of Men's Duty to achieve equality in the home and in everyday life.. A day against violence against women, whether in harassment, forced marriages, access to education, to science and even to power. Marie Curie, Simone Veil, George Sand and Simone de Beauvoir. All of them fought for recognition of their equality with men in disciplines which were basically simply forbidden to them and in which they were mocked if one of them dared to venture.. And it is even often their husbands who have served as a surety to prove that women have just as much talent as the greatest of which they were a part.. This is the Duty of a just and well-married man after all.…
Did you know that the problem (paradox) of Monty Hall's game was solved in 1990 by a woman, Marilyn vos Savant, by the Bayesian equations that were just emerging and that it took 2 years for the math community and academics to recognize her and stop humiliating her as a woman ? This is all that World Women's Rights Day seeks to recognize. !

Ce 8 mars 2023 Silva Usta was invited to the Lycée Thierry Maulnier to raise awareness among students about this world day which seeks to recognize the inalienable rights of women in our societies..

Déjà 150 years of Carnival in Nice and an important quarter of artists and elected officials wanted to challenge themselves to reinterpret the official Carnival poster under the nose and beard of the Mayor who could only accept it.

25 artists set about creating their own Carnival poster and exhibiting them ! They gave themselves the instruction to attack only the King, to the Queen, to the Ratapignata (the bat, independence identity) and at the King's Court. Nothing less ! In a carnival spirit – respecting the spirit of criticism – bitter and good-natured at the same time. Because after all, carnival is the opposite of war.

The Return of Nosferatus by Silva Usta

You will recognize the cartoon character. He was a great influence on certain political figures in Nice who were inspired by his program that some will consider nauseating. Unlucky candidate however in the last presidential, accused of racism, of sexism and religionism to the great regret of an animator who had not paid attention to the creature he was creating at the time. Now the bat, gloomy this one unlike ours, very Nice and from all walks of life, it looks like plumes, who will make jas.z.er… And dance !

The “Pioneering Women” exhibition, by the artist Silva Usta, coming to an end.
Located at Port Lympia College, the works in the exhibition are withdrawn today, after being presented for almost four months.

Olympe de Gouges "the revolutionary", Rosie the riveter “the unexpected icon of feminism”, or even Virginia Woolf “the sensitive woman”. These portraits of more or less well-known women are exhibited at Port Lympia College.. First presented in life-size format on the exterior walls of the flea market, the works were at the entire disposal of the people of Nice until November 1st. “It was awesome (…) every time I passed in front of the market, I saw passers-by stopping to look at the signs”, rejoices the artist. It is a tribute to all these outstanding women in history, those who have emancipated themselves from the rules of their time by expressing their desire for freedom. For Silva Usta, the visual artist “it was complicated to make a choice (…) I wanted to represent as many nationalities as possible and not stay in the French microcosm”. The objective is simple : educate young people about art and about women and their place in our societies. “It is my duty to inform young people (…) educate boys and show girls that anything is possible”, says the artist.

“The future is the youth”

For Silva Usta, the objective of awakening the artistic sensitivity and open-mindedness of young people is fulfilled. Activities were organized every Tuesday afternoon with schools coming from all over the city. Pupils from primary to high school discovered these portraits. “The younger the children, the more curious and open-minded they are”, says the artist. “I remember a very young boy who was stuck in front of one of the portraits, he exclaimed : she's pretty but she's also brave ! And that's exactly the message I want to pass on to this generation.", rejoices the visual artist. This is the first time that Silva Usta has exhibited his works in a school. This is the first but certainly not the last time (…) the future is the youth”, explains the artist. It is therefore a full box for the visual artist and her exhibition. She was recently asked by the Thierry Maulnier high school for a new project, enough to allow an artistic awakening to new young people.

Silva Usta

Of Armenian descent, Silva Usta was born in Istanbul, city ​​in which she lived until she was fifteen before moving to Strasbourg. She moved to Nice in 1980, and took plastic art classes at Villa Thiole. On 2001, she creates her studio in Nice, located rue Gounod, in the Musicians quarter.

PIONEER WOMEN will be offered in life-size reproduction on the 12 exterior panels of the Nice Flea Market.

The exhibition will take place from September 1 to November 1 2022. It will be done jointly with the exhibition of the original pieces at the Port Lympia College in Nice, from 29 September 2022 to the 26 January 2023, as part of cultural awareness work with college students.

Opening at the Nice Flea Market on 6 September at 11 a.m. in the presence of Robert Roux, Deputy Mayor of Nice, cultural delegate.

New Orleans prostitutes are called Jazz-Belles in Cajun slang, in reference to the Jezebel.

The artist Silva Usta redesigned the poster of the Jazz festival for the city of Nice during a call from the city to promote the festival and decorate the streets of La Belle Nissa.

exhibition from 15 to the 21 July 2022 on the public village of the Jazz festival. It will then be transferred under the 2 arches of the Cours Jacques Chirac, united states dock, and will be visible from 22 July 3 October 2022.

The very classic and glamorous poster assumes that it takes so many men to support the sole grace of a single woman.

The last exhibition "supremacy / exclusion” of Silva Usta expresses his outrage at the growing denial of human rights.

It is an installation in the form of two panels (2*7 m long by 2m high) illustrating the exodus of populations undergoing wars, crimes against humanity and genocides in the face of a cosmopolitan and plural society in complete freedom.

At the origin there is indignation, this positive refusal, this high consideration of justice and love where the struggles for the rights of women and all come together, whatever their ethnic origins, cultural, religions and their sexual orientation.

Silva Usta discovered in the international press the deportation of Uyghurs from Xinjiang and their internment. A situation that echoed in the interiority of this visual artist, who then developed an obsessive research practice on the exodus of populations linked to wars, crimes against humanity or, in the extreme, genocide. A subject, subjects, which led her to the creation of large human frescoes, monumental, commensurate with his anger at the denial of human rights at the state and territory level.

In a first set, each character or group testifies to a particular fact : the trade of black slaves to the New World, the Genocide of Armenian Christians in the Ottoman Empire, the Holocaust set up by the Nazi regime and the pogroms of the Jews by Tsarist and Soviet Russia, as well as the exodus of refugees during the Vietnam War and the exile of refugees who perish today in the Mediterranean. Souls drawn in black felt-tip pen, whose silhouette springs from the immaculate white paper. Their very graphic aesthetic is reminiscent of the previous feminist series by Silva Usta, dubbed “Pioneers”, in tribute to those who fought for rights and freedoms in the world.

In this new work in large format, the visual artist induces a relationship of scale between the visitor and these oversized characters, freed from the notion of color. Without getting lost in documentary precision, here she launches a visceral cry of woman and citizen in the face of inter-human violence : enslavement, the deportation of populations, severe deprivation of liberty, whether for economic reasons, policies, cultural, and/or ethnic.

Return of the beautiful exhibition of photos of the tattooed. Silva Usta exhibits at Les Pépites and also presents various jewels there, sculptures, drawings and engravings from her universe rich in artistic variety and solidly feminine.

Les Pépites is an art boutique supported by the association of OF ART.

The Parcours de l'Art is a contemporary art festival in Avignon that has taken place since 27 years. Silva Usta holds an exhibition dedicated to emancipated women and pioneering women there..

The theme of the festival this year was : “Freedom – find her, lose it ?”

"Freedom" is the theme chosen for the 27th edition of the Parcours de l'Art.

Like a banner, like the flag in the famous painting by Eugène Delacroix, freedom floats in all minds guiding the individual and collective revolutions of this 21st century.

The theme of "freedom" denotes a new breath, an inspiring breath : new artists scheduled, new spirit and artistic direction !

This edition 2021 dedicated to "freedom" will draw the contours of a future of which the arts - we deeply hope – are the fertile ground.

exhibition from 8 to the 17 mars 2021 – World Women's Day

A new positive exhibition of Silva Usta on the occasion of World Women's Day ! The plastic artist has decided to stage emancipated women in all their freedom and all their femininity.

Optimism is inevitably de rigueur with this exhibition devoted to women who give themselves the means to live as they see fit and are the driving force for all those who want to emancipate themselves.

Many women today still have to answer to society, to men, to religions and unfortunate and false reputations that can be attributed to them.

Many are those who suffer a multitude of verbal or physical violence from strangers or relatives.

There are many who cannot leave the domestic role attributed to women since our most archaic past..

And this is all that the artist has decided to go beyond to present with this exhibition the emancipation expected by advanced societies, healthy and respectful.

Silva Usta presents : Emancipated !

Svetà Gallery
18 rue Bonaparte 06000 Nice
Of 8 to the 17 mars, 14h – 18h

Silva Usta pays tribute to the women who discovered, built and defended the world.

If sometimes in the history of mankind it has been thought that women appeared in the 20th century in their desire to assert a free identity, Silva Usta reminds us in her precious work that, at all times, women have played their part in all fields, knowledge, of creation, of life…

These pioneering women turned the history of mankind upside down.

The etymologically pioneer is the one who walks: first an infantryman, then the one that highlights new lands, finally the metaphorical aspect becomes essential, he advances, to advance humanity. The feminine of this word gives to the various actions of courageous women this liberating humanist dimension..

Silva creates, with a heart in perpetual work, a constant interaction between the centuries and the plurality of paths. Some famous names and others more veiled participate in this universal unity. Willingness, challenge and perseverance are the engines of fundamental change: live your life freely and choose your destiny!

Silva presents these women in their diversity and singular individuality., as she herself is a protean artist.

A precise technique brings them together: the use of black felt of course and the choice of tulle glued on the drawings. Doesn't he express this lightness of being, that femininity that refuses to get stuck in the ravines of anger? Certainly these Pioneers were able to experience thirst as well as hunger, laughter like tears, wounds and / or gentleness but they remain open on their threshold and the future remains Light

Silva makes us sensitive to this night and this light.

In the desert an oasis opens up where Life and Creation allow you to taste the infinite flavor of Life.

“Exposure and personal performance at the Gateway”

After the success of its exhibitions Tatoothérapie, Usta Silva gave a new exhibition tour performance to painting.

“Exhibition of Silva Usta. With performances of Kadija, Lisie Philip, Anthony Alberti, and Magali Revest with Frederic Pasquini”

The reflection about the artistic project “Tatoothérapie” began on 27 June 2017.
I wanted to take time. This photographic and oral project on tattoo is an achievement and it is close to my heart.

This is hard work from a human point of view as those who participated, had to let me into their privacy, and it is an upheaval.

Once in my studio, on my pink chair, over a coffee, sometimes with a square of chocolate, the meeting was becaming friendly, sensitive and intimate.
I thank my models who have trusted me and who opened the door of their history and their emotions. About all that means or evokes their tattoos through this living space that I was to listen and photograph.

Through this exhibition, I present to you this long term work. I hope you, public, will welcome with pleasure this retrospective.

I also think that you will enjoy to discover this patchwork of stories described in my catalog. It recounts all the stages of this human experience that I named Tatootherapie.

Images and program of Tatoothérapie evening's
