ReCycle
Past: March 10 → April 21, 2018
The exhibition traces the history of assemblage and the potential of recycling from Kurt Schwitters’ pioneering work, to the artists who have been articulating this practice through the 80s and until today. It does not only involve the idea of bringing new sense to everyday life material, but also investigates the relationship these artists express with the adopted objects.

L’Autre… De l’image à la réalité 2/3 : Face à l’Autre
Past: April 19 → July 1, 2017
Malgré l’accélération des échanges dans un monde désormais globalisé, notre relation à autrui semble peu évoluer. Préjugés, stéréotypes, réflexes de replis identitaires dominent encore souvent notre appréhension de l’Autre. Les œuvres sélectionnées éclairent nos réactions face à l’altérité et notre aveuglement volontaire.

Thomas Hirschhorn — Pixel-Collage
Past: January 9 → February 26, 2016
I want to give form to the recognition of beauty and atrocity because it is important to insist on the absolutely wrong and cruel separation between these two registers. The Pixel-Collage is a try to use the “Pixel” key to enter a new picture, a new form, a new world. — Thomas Hirschhorn.

Past: June 1 → 7, 2015
The third edition of the Printemps des Laboratoires will be devoted to exploring how art relates to the ‘polis’, in opposition to instituted powers.
