Because he was part of the generation for whom the emergence of CANAL+ was a major cultural event, the television channel has asked Xavier Veilhan to turn his artistic vision to the celebration of its 30th anniversary. For this occasion, the artist has imagined a work composed of an immense mural and a stage space at the Palais de Tokyo.

Klavdij Sluban’s photographs — which were taken in 2013 at Hauteville House — follow a tradition which has been cultivated since inception by Victor Hugo’s house of exile in Guernsey. A photographer of the alternative who is drawn by dark and original spaces, Klavdij Sluban seeks to pierce the mystery of this place of memory and poetry.

The artists united in this exhibition form their point of view in relation to a given field of thought, exploring the different aspects of the photographic medium: in its form, beyond its unilateral and two-dimensional construction, which leads to a capturing of space, whether as filter, barrier, light, connection, sculpture or installation.

Muntadas’ work takes after historical conceptual art, this being how he identifies with today’s contemporary art world. The shapes and content of his work, however, tends to bring him closer at times to pop. The proposition …et avec cela? is, indeed, an example, made up of silkscreens or prints, posters.

Mille miroirs dans la forêt’ combines the work of two photographers — Yuki Onodera & Aki Lumi — who share their life, time and workspace while each developing an exacting and independent oeuvre. The mirror, the inverter of truth, is the place where the reflection finds form, potentially becoming deformed and unfaithful.

La galeriste Maria do Mar Guinle propose une vision du Brésil détachée des représentations iconiques du pays qui trop souvent tendent au cliché.

“It is through 122 Colour Photographs that I came to know the work of Keld Helmer-Petersen. Martin Parr introduced me to the volume when we were researching our history of the photo book…" — Gerry Badger

Le Bicolore

When a photographer shoots him/herself, s/he upsets a code of conduct, and the “shoot” morphs into a real challenge. This show of around 40 modern and contemporary prints reveals the photogenic power of this moment of truth.

Via a selection of paintings, collages and sculptures, the exhibition invites us to perceive artworks in their materiality and tangible reality, as well as the means by which they have developed, being the accumulated gestures which have resulted in their realisation and which precede its status.

The work of Scaglia reinterprets various events of the armed conflicts which arose in Peru between the 80s and 90. His interest for the recontextualisation of these events in the field of the art led him to question the origin of the avant-garde movement and to wonder what determines whether an action or gesture is considered as art.

At first view, Dirk Braeckman makes photographs in the simplest possible way: he doesn’t go in search of remarkable subjects or extraordinary places but photographs whatever happens to be there, using a 35mm camera, often from a frontal perspective and at eye level.

In the same way as scientists try to determinate the fundamental laws of the Universe, the artists — through their aesthetic practices — dream and read into the world in order to re-integrate us into it as human beings. But can one make visible those complex elements whose physical reality remains unexplainable?

Da-End Gallery

The exhibition juxtaposes the contemporary photographers Antoine d’Agata, Dieter Appelt, Roger Ballen, Blanca Casas Brullet, Anne Mandelbaum, David Nebreda, Catherine Rebois, Andres Serrano, Dorothée Smith and Patrick Tosani. Each in their own way explores the dimensions of the perceptible and its photographic visual representation.

Topographie de l’art

Géricault’s ’The Raft of the Medusa’ is only the starting point from which Martin Bruneau puts his talent to work. Accordingly the raft constructed by those who have been shipwrecked is absent so to speak, leaving the bodies whose position and movements and preserved. They seem to float between sky and sea, life and death.

For Specific Inventory, Véronique Bourgoin questions the viewer about the evolution of communication space in our daily life, Joël Leick crisscrosses abandoned places listening to their history and delivers a series that is both modest and sensitive, for the “Library”, the American photographer Matt Lipps compiled thousands of black and white photos.
