Gerard Byrne
For example; a sketch of Five Elevations, 1971-72

Exhibition from May 5 – July 16, 2011
Opening on Wednesday, May 4, from 6pm.

Gerard Byrne’s work is structured around documents – advertisements, daily papers, specialized magazines – dating from after the Second World War, generally from the 1960s and 1970s. After researching archives, Byrne uses these often fragmented and forgotten documents, transforms them and gives them a second life. The new images and settings that emerge from the joined processes of critical deconstruction and reconstruction, often dramatized, examine the codes of artistic or media images and those of representation.

Artists’ Voices
Prolongation

Sound exhibition from December 11, 2015 till March 26, 2016
Opening Thursday December 10, 2015, 6 PM – 9 PM

Artists’ Voices assembles a group of sound pieces linked to the theme of the voice. The voice considered as a strong marker on the unconscious, a pre-language primal expression that is directly connected to emotions and is identifiable by a body of signs: tone, vibration, timbre, rhythm. The sound pieces are songs, declamations, monologues, a reading, a discourse, a dialogue, an echo, a whisper, a noise, a scream or breathing, up to the point of rupture, dysphonia, aphonia, silence, or even the return of sound and music.

T. Quelques possibilités de textes

Exhibition from May 8 to June 13, 2009
Opening : Thursday, May 7, 2009, from 6 pm

T like text, of course, or temporary, tentative, turn of phrase, trove, trouble, tension… tea time and T. Rex.

T is an exhibition which offers several possibilities of texts. Artists’ texts that can be images, signs or also an abstract, a description, an explanation, a manifesto, a recollection, a quotation, a poem, a story…

T is a round-trip from text to work, from work to text: a new exercise.

T, it’s some simple sheets of A4 paper, several proposals of printed matter (tracts or small posters), but also a letter, a recording, a distribution or even a republishing, the publication of a work already completed or the layout of a future publication; a model. (more…)
