Satellite 5 — Jimmy Robert, Langue matérielle
Past: February 21 → April 29, 2012
Movement, appropriation, and poetic acts are at the center of his practice, which is developed through all sorts of media: performance, actions, films, photographs and publications. Robert explores a dialogue between his body and its representation, which explores the limits of the image as well as language and the gap amidst the two.

Diane Arbus
Past: October 18, 2011 → February 5, 2012
Diane Arbus revolutionized the art she practiced. Her bold subject matter and photographic approach produced a body of work that is often shocking in its purity, in its steadfast celebration of things as they are. Her gift for rendering strange those things we consider most familiar, and for uncovering the familiar.

Audrey Cottin — Charlie & Sabrina, qui l’eût cru ?
Past: October 18, 2011 → February 5, 2012
For Satellite series Audrey started several collaborations with her peers engaged in notions of authorship, form and performance. As a first gesture to assess what this potential collaboration may entail Audrey carried a series of lifting exercises: she shifted the position of object in space suspending it in air.

Hantologie des colonies
Past: October 8 → November 18, 2011
With a selection of both historically rare films and recent works made by contemporary artists, the series questions the irresolute nature of colonial history. By putting back into circulation long forgotten, lost or forbidden images or choosing to relate certain colonial motifs or events, these works demand an emancipation from and a critique of colonial studies heritage.

Aernout Mik — Communitas
Past: March 1 → May 8, 2011
Dans ses installations, Aernout Mik fait évoluer le spectateur entre une architecture captivante et des images hypnotiques, presque tactiles. Écran après écran, vidéo après vidéo, ses installations tracent des parcours dans lesquels le spectateur découvre des personnages qui paraissent se fondre à travers des actions répétitives.

Le titre de l’exposition, « Empire, State, Building » évoque d’abord le nom d’un « bâtiment-temple-monument-œuvre », celui d’un célèbre gratte-ciel new-yorkais qui n’a cessé d’être depuis son achèvement en 1931, mythique et emblématique des États-Unis, mais aussi une source d’inspiration pour l’art du XXe siècle.

Alex Cecchetti & Mark Geffriaud — The Police Return to the Magic Shop
Past: March 1 → May 8, 2011
Imaginez un livre qui est grand ouvert, mais n’a pourtant ni couverture ni pages. Ses personnages changent d’apparence d’un chapitre à l’autre, se transformant en plantes d’espèces disparues, en machines nouvelles, ou en galaxies impossibles. Ils rencontrent des obstacles ou encore deviennent eux-mêmes l’un de ces obstacles.
