At the heart of the Swiss alps, at the Furka col situated at an altitude of 2436m, the Furkablick hotel played host to an extraordinary yet little known artistic project. Between 1983 and 1999, 63 international artists were invited to create works in this gripping environment.

Robin McGinley pays homage to “33 1/3” (1969), a little-known work by John Cage. A dozen or so record decks occupy the space and hundreds of vinyl disks are made available to the public, giving them the chance to create their own musical ambiance by putting on whichever pieces they choose.

This exhibit neither submits to the retrospective as genre or convention, nor does it present in an exhibition space works which were originally destined for a theatre space. The work is conceived as a choreography of actions and words performed by artists thoughought the exhibition.

Charles de Meaux has conceived an original and exclusive project, taking inspiration from the very architecture of the Centre Pompidou. He will install a reconstituted pipe which will form his own vision of a runaway train, as the image of a stationary voyage.

“What gets forgotten in images? How and why is it forgotten? If, as psychology says, the capacity to forget is the sign of a healthy mind, is it therefore reassuring to think that cinema is also capable of forgetting? A response with six films and six associated arguments.” Program by Jacques Aumont.

Major ceiling decoration projects were the ideal canvas for the renewal of forms in the Grand Siècle. The Louvre is home to about one hundred works on paper which, from Simon Vouet to the disciples of Charles Le Brun, give the full measure of this outpouring of creativity.

While still adhering to the painterly principles Bordarier first developed in the 1980s, this new series differs in its alternation of two colours prepared by the artist himself: mars violet, which he knows “by heart”, and copper sulphate, a source of numerous transparency effects.

For the exhibition “Figures et autres scanogrammes”, Pierre Savatier moves from the still frame method, linked to the silver method, to using a scanner, a digital technology. The relationship between precision and the haphazard is explored, a relationship already present in his still frames.

Firmly anchored in the modernist practices of the gestural and monochrome, Jason Martin has been consistently exploring and refining his painting over the years. The meticulously choreographed movement of the brush and controlled application of paint have always conferred his work an extraordinary sculptural quality.

(French only) Le Cabinet des Dessins de la galerie Thaddaeus Ropac présente une série d’encres et d’aquarelles du célèbre peintre et sculpteur allemand Georg Baselitz.

In the exhibition, Amos Gitai shows a Super 8 film with the title “After” along with a series of previously unseen photographs. After is an experimental film shot in 1973 during the Yom Kippur war. In the film, Gitai revisited an event that occurred when he was only 23 years old, namely a helicopter crash from which he miraculously escaped with his life.
