Vertige en terrain plat

Thursday 16 June 2016 at 6:24 pm

Experiencing vertigo on a flat surface is like feeling that a reality
that has always seemed stable and structured is cast adrift and starts
to totter. Our head spins, our senses are fogged, and a feeling of déjà
vu arises like an anomaly, an error, a bug: truth and fiction blend to
the point of inextricability.

From June 4th to 16th 2016, the curator collective MATHILDE EXPOSE presents Vertige en terrain plat, featuring work by thirteen recent graduates of the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris. The exhibition takes visitors on a tour of three sites in the Marais, from the Archives Nationales to the Brownstone Foundation and the Galerie Eva Meyer-Project Room. Visitors
are then invited to complete the Vertige en terrain plat experience at
the Fondation d’Entreprise Ricard on Thursday June 16th from 7 p.m. with
a series of performances and a chance to meet the artists and curators
to discuss the exhibition catalogue.

Pauline Lavogez will showcase Oxygène, a series of performances inspired by a play by the Russian playwright Ivan Vyrypaev, published in 2002. The artist will perform four compositions interpreting the three chapters of an urgent,
lively text that speaks of religion, intimacy, morality, politics, and
current affairs.

The exhibition catalogue, produced by the curators and published by the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts, includes numerous illustrations. Its art criticism and interviews shed light on the issues raised by each artist. Part of the work has been designed as a space where the artists were given carte blanche to express themselves freely, most choosing to contribute original new material so that the catalogue functions as a permanent extension of the
exhibition, page after page.

The project Vertige en terrain plat is run by MATHILDE EXPOSE, an association set up in 2015 with the support of Claire Le Restif, director of CREDAC, the Contemporary Art Centre in Ivry and member of the teaching staff for the Masters course in contemporary art exhibition at the Sorbonne. It is part of an ongoing partnership between the Sorbonne and the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts de Paris.
