Le vent se lève — Dixième exposition de la collection
Past: June 17, 2020 → March 17, 2021
The exhibition follows a series of themes that connect and dialogue with each other, guiding visitors in their exploration. The works give a glimpse of the imbalance between the very long time-frame that preceded the appearance of Man and human and, recently, chemical time, in which experiments precipitate an impact that is all too often destructive.

Past: September 18 → November 15, 2020
With reference to the famous themed cabaret, founded in Montmartre at the end of the 19th century, that deployed its parodic and funereal ambiance by making light of morbid situations with inflammatory irony, the Frac Île-de-France presents, at the Château de Rentilly, an exhibition created by students, which combines contemporary artists with masterpieces.

De toi à la surface

The observation that brought the artists of this exhibition together is : the spiritual complement that we give objects belongs to us alone. Thus we are used to objects fulfilling functions other than what their original design intended.

Presque rien
Past: June 5 → July 31, 2015
If nothing usually evokes an absence, a lack or a void, it is often at the frontier of nothing in which these artists excel. Through an apparent simplicity, their works both move and impact on the viewer. The pieces displayed in the exhibition share a similar aesthetic; one that is at once minimal and refined.

Past: July 2 → September 15, 2014
Magiciens de la terre was one of the exhibitions that revolutionised the 20th century international art scene.

This exhibition shows the different ways in which artists perceive fire, a phenomenon that has always been a fascination.

Christian Boltanski — Livres
Past: May 7 → July 9, 2011
Since 1969, Christian Boltanski has published more than 80 artist books, an occupation conceived as integral part of his artistic practice, and the perfect medium for his relentless investigation of memory. Their conceptual evolution takes on the artist’s approach, and are usually divided in different obsessional issues.
