Exceptional closing at 5 pm on Sunday, November 28
The work of the artist Leonor Antunes takes its point of departure in a history of modernity of which she privileges the shadowy zones, those in particular where many women designers, architects or artists have been relegated. In the exceptional settings of the Chapelle des petits Augustins at the Beaux-Arts de Paris and the Maison André Bloc in Meudon, various figures will emerge: the Japanese Michiko Yamawaki, a resident of the Bauhaus (1930-1932), and Charlotte Perriand, with works produced during her stays in Japan (1940-1942, 1953-1955). A new set of ceramic sculptures and suspensions placed in the center of the nave will dialogue with the collections of casts, remnants of the former museum of French monuments.
This exhibition is produced by the Festival d'Automne, in collaboration with the Beaux-Arts de Paris. With the support of the Gulbenkian Foundation - Delegation in France. With the support of the Marian Goodman gallery (Paris) and the support of the Air de Paris gallery (Paris).
Born in 1972 in Lisbon, Leonor Antunes lives and works in Berlin. She understands her work as a crossbreeding between vernacular processes and the cultural heritage of modernism. Her work often refers, through a subtle detour, a divergence, a shift, to the current status of this heritage and avant-garde, to its specific geometric forms, patterns and structures designed by architects and designers of the early 20th century.
His sculptures are designed and installed in response to a context in which architecture and history, but also the physical experience of the place, intervene. Her work is informed by her research into architectural and design figures such as architects Eileen Gray (1878-1976), Egle Trincanato (1910-1998) and Carlo Scarpa (1906-1978), designers Anni Albers (1899-1994) and Clara Porset (1895-1981) or artists Lygia Clark and Mary Martin (1907-1969). Leonor Antunes transposes the forms, motifs and dimensions characteristic of their work into materials and textures such as rope, wood, cork, leather or brass, employing a sculptural vocabulary inspired by artisanal techniques and skills.
She has had solo exhibitions at MUDAM - Musée d'Art Contemporain du Luxembourg (2020), MASP - Museu de Arte de São Paulo (2019), Museo Tamayo in Mexico City (2018), Whitechapel Gallery in London (2017), Tensta Konsthall in Stockholm (2017), CAPC Musée d'Art Contemporain de Bordeaux (2016), New Museum in New York (2015) and Kunsthalle Basel (2013). In 2019, she will represent Portugal at the 58th Venice Biennale. She participated in the 12th Gwangju Biennale (2018), the 57th Venice Biennale (2017) and the 8th Berlin Biennale (2014). She was awarded the Zurich Art Prize in 2019. Her works are held in public collections such as the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York, the Museum of Modern Art in Paris, the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation in Lisbon, the Serralves Foundation in Porto.

The relationship between text and image has never been so present in contemporary art (Basquiat, Cy Twombly, Street Art, etc.). It is particularly evident in the field of drawing, which is similar to writing in its literal graphic character, but also in its privileged medium, paper. The exhibition proposes to explore the question of this relationship through the previous centuries.
The inscriptions affixed by the artist or sometimes by the amateur contribute to a reading of the drawings which, without their presence, would escape their understanding. Thanks to them, the visitor finds himself at the heart of the creation and perceives all the complexities of an invention where imagination, constraints of a commission, visual culture, but also chance and improvisation are mixed.
The selected works offer a wide typology of writings that generally appear on the drawings: signatures or monograms (Urs Graf), dates (Zuccari), places of execution (Hubert Robert, Natoire), dedications (Puvis de Chavannes), comments related to the context of a commission or a market linking the artist and the client (Pourbus, Martellange). Annotations of colors, dimensions or architectural details contribute to provide information on a project intended to be painted, sculpted or engraved.
The sources from which the artists drew their inspiration are as many references explicitly inscribed on the sheets: artistic sources, when the draftsman refers to great masters, Michelangelo (Carpeaux), Bramante (Hubert Robert), Holbein (Alberola), literary or oral sources: Homer and Hesiod (de La Fosse), Sophocles (Veronese), Michaux (Unica Zürn), proverbs (Verbeeck, Richer).
If the inscriptions and the drawings most often form a coherent whole, they sometimes cohabit in a random juxtaposition, which can surprise the visitor.

Inventive, poet, artist, actor, witness committed to freedom and freedoms, the great cartoonist Georges Wolinski murdered in 2015 is celebrated by the School of Fine Arts in Paris. On this occasion, 41 drawings donated by his family are presented, joining the museum's prestigious collection alongside Leonardo da Vinci's grotesque heads or Daumier's drawings and engravings and a number of other masterpieces that the School regularly conserves and exhibits.
The ensemble reveals aspects of Wolinski's work that are sometimes less well known. Indeed, alongside the famous press drawings designed for Hara Kiri in the 1960s or those for Charlie Hebdo in the 2010s, appear the metaphysical questioning drawings of his early years filled with a delicate and desperate poetry.
The sheets chosen with the family also reveal the traces, marks, erasures, collage corrections and annotations highlighting for the viewers and students of the School the skillful work of the artist, his requirement, his complex techniques that support a drawing apparently fast and casual. What elegance!
The exhibition is complemented by a wonderful and little-known film, Le Beau Pays, shown at the opening and every Wednesday at 6pm in the mulberry amphitheater. Funny, grating, moving, this short film co-directed by Georges Wolinski and Michel Boschet carries very current reflections on the relationship between men and women and our relationship with nature. A Georges Wolinski study notebook accompanies the exhibition. It is introduced by Philippe Lançon, Prix Femina 2018 for his book Le Lambeau, who shared with him friendship and work at Charlie Hebdo. He analyzes and pays tribute to the man who "changed the nature and meaning of press cartoons but also the balance of power between drawing and writing."

How to continue to create? How not to be crushed by the way things are going? How to stay in motion? The stakes are high, more than ever.
At the initiative of Beaux-Arts de Paris, Felicità Goodbye Horses brings together the thirty or so congratulated artists from the Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2019 and the École nationale supérieure d'art de Bourges in 2019 and 2020.
Since October 2020, the group has been participating in a program of encounters aimed at questioning the modalities of production and circulation of art, and at reflecting collectively on the issues of our contemporary world.
Organized for the first time outside the walls, the exhibition Felicità Goodbye Horses is the result of a collective work. The works have been imagined to occupy a floor of 800m2 of POUSH Manifesto.
A website and a publication accompany the exhibition.
Curated by Mélanie Bouteloup.
Borrowing its title from the bewitching melody of Q. Lazzarus' haunting melody, repeated so many times and yet remaining so singular, Felicità Goodbye Horses seeks to make us apprehend the world beyond its material condition. It proposes to experience all the vitality of our intense proximity, in its most ardent nuances and contradictions, in a world in perpetual contagion. Life is always connected to the life of another. What if we stopped the big speeches and simply reconnected to each other? What if we really looked into each other's eyes? What if we talked about our doubts, fragilities and difficulties?
By intensifying our connections in a sprawling way, we become more and more elusive. Neither live nor die, but metamorphose. Like an octopus, feel the living with its thousands of suction cups, one by one, glue, unglue and glue again. To seek to intensify our coexistence, taking into account our most varied forms of life and sensibilities. We are all vulnerable. Felicità Goodbye Horses aspires to transcend this violence that suffocates us and try to develop other ways of getting in touch, talking to each other, exchanging, being together and coexisting

GENESIS OF THE PROJECT
Conceived as a sort of post-graduation program (October 2020 - May 2021), the meetings were intended to accompany the thirty or so congratulated artists who graduated from Beaux-Arts de Paris and Ensa Bourges at a time when the Covid pandemic was sweeping the world. It gave rise to a one-week residency in
Lizières (Epaux-Bézu) in February 2021 under the artistic direction of Ramuntcho Matta and workshops at POUSH (Clichy) between April and May with the artists Franck Leibovici, Neil Beloufa and Emmanuelle Lainé. The students of the master Sciences et techniques de l'exposition (Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne), directed by Christophe Viart, were invited to participate in the writing of texts around the artists of Felicità Goodbye Horses.
WEBSITE
Designed by Maxime Gambus, the Felicità Goodbye Horses website reports on the program of meetings via an online journal. The contributions that appear on it mix works, winks and other shares (playlist, life forms) resulting from almost daily conversations with the thirty or so artists participating in the program. The site is accessible from the Atlas of Beaux-Arts de Paris.
CATALOGUE
The exhibition is accompanied by a catalog in French.

For the first time, until 2022, the programme of the Palais des Beaux-Arts is entirely conceived, developed and implemented by the 25 students of the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" course and the 11 young curators in residence at the Beaux-Arts de Paris. Crû, L'eau et les rêves, Orbital orchestra, discover the new projects of Act 3 of the Theatre of Exhibitions, presented in a set of rooms fitted out for the occasion. Each in its own way, these exhibitions cross time by confronting the heritage works of the School's collections with the contemporary works of professors and students. This joyful experimental laboratory brings into play the very principle of the exhibition with forms that are still unspecified and sometimes confusing.
From March 2021 to January 2022, masterpieces from the collections of the Beaux-Arts de Paris and the creations of young artists from the School and their teachers are brought together in a succession of exhibitions. This composite piece will feature both fully completed works and others still being put together or even developed. It is written by the students of the first two classes of the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" course at the Beaux-Arts de Paris*, accompanied by young curators in residence and guided by the School's curators, theoreticians, professors and staff.
Le Théâtre des expositions is developed and produced by the first two classes of the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" course:
Class of 2019/2020 : Lina Benzerti, Brune Doummar, Milana Dzhabrailova, Sarah Konté, Corentin Leber, Chongyan Liu, Victoire Mangez, Bram Niesz, Yannis Ouaked, Violette Wood, Kenza Zizi. Curators in Residence 2019/2020: Simona Dvořáková, Marie Grihon, César Kaci, Alice Narcy, Esteban Neveu Ponce.
Class of 2020/2021 : Soraya Abdelhouaret, Paul-Emile Bertonèche, Yucegul Cirak, Andreas Fevrier, Daniel Galicia, Alexandre Gras, Raphael Guillet, Thibault Hiss, Hélène Janicot, Elladj Lincy, Anna Oarda, Céleste Philippot, Océane Pilastre, Libo Wei. Curators in Residence 2020/20201 Noam Alon, Antoine Duchenet, Lou Ferrand, Céline Furet, Juliette Hage, Lila Torqueo.
Le Théâtre des expositions is activated by a live programme: performances, concerts, readings, screenings, two-voice visits, sound interventions or radio transmissions. From 9 June onwards, you will be able to listen to live broadcasts on Wednesdays at the end of the day and on Facebook (until 9pm).
Radio Bal, the Beaux-Arts de Paris students' web radio, led by Lou Olmos Arsenne and Pierlouis Clavel, will be broadcasting regularly as a podcast in connection with Le Théâtre des expositions. Among the programmes offered will be the quasi-interviews of arthur dokhan, a 5th year student, according to the principle: "everyone knows the answers to my questions. start nowhere, talk about everything, and end there".
* Created in 2019, the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" programme is directed and coordinated by the exhibition and public services. It enables 3rd and 4th year students to train in production, management, scenography, mediation and all professions related to the presentation and dissemination of art. As part of this training, a residency is offered to young curators who can work for a year at the Beaux-Arts de Paris. The "Artists & Exhibition Professions" programme at the Beaux-Arts de Paris is designed in partnership with the Palais de Tokyo.
Act 3
Crû / du 10 juin au 18 juillet 2021
As hunter-gatherers, the artists gathered in this exhibition are part of a culture of the object of use that absorbs the products of last necessity, gleaned from the internet and supermarkets.
Using sampled or simulated industrial forms, they put our standards into perspective in order to question the autonomy and affective charge of things. Their operations - remake, pastiche, collection, post-production - meet in the same effect of disappropriation.
Without possessing them, the artists associate themselves with materials, sanitized when they present themselves as standards, vibrant as soon as they reconstitute things. Meaningful forms and archetypes become foreign to us, like Others endowed with (in)organic sensitivity.
These complicit and porous bodies influence and contaminate each other as if in a digestive system that returns the normalised forms to their original energy. In the proto-loft that brings them together here, these inert, non-living or abject things are charged with affect and escape our definitions. In contrast to the normative language that shapes our bodies and the gadgets that automate our habits, the material reality of desire manifests itself behind closed doors.
Artists presented: Marika Belle, Max Coulon, Gabriel Day, Clément Erhardy, Elisa Florimond, Victoire Gonzalvez, Marie Grihon, Nastassia Kotava, Pablo Lacoste, Romain Landi, Lucille Leger, Mélanie Matranga, Samya Moineaud, Rafael Moreno

from the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" course).
L'eau et les rêves / du 10 juin au 18 juillet 2021
Water and Dreams is inspired by the literary work of Gaston Bachelard and his thoughts on the "morality of water". The exhibition swims, or even drifts, through a selection of sketches painted by students of the Beaux-Arts in Paris in the 19th century. These thermal architectures, characteristic of the School's programmes under the Second Empire, reflect the "thermal fever" that was spreading throughout France at the same time, with the appearance of spa towns near and in the heart of the mountain ranges. In the centre of these imaginary buildings, the sculptures of the students of the Laboratoire Matière/Espace are like fragments of architecture bathed in watercolour water. They bear witness to the possible existence of a world emerging at the crossroads of two centuries. Each one in its own way evokes the memory of a place, a moment or a sensation: a passage in the forest, a swim, hot stones, water and dreams.
Curator: Emmanuelle Brugerolles, curator of drawings at the Beaux-Arts de Paris and Océane Pilastre, student in the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" course
Orbital Orchestra / du 16 juin au 18 juillet 2021
As part of the "Supersonic: exhibiting, editing, inhabiting sound" chair, students from the Beaux-Arts de Paris were able to collaborate with composers from IRCAM to compose sound and visual works together and thus imagine a collective exhibition, Orbital Orchestra. This collaboration takes the form of a digital score activated by a central sound device, collectively imagined and programmed by IRCAM's computer music producers.
With students from the Beaux-Arts de Paris: Inès Cherifi, Pierlouis Clavel, Héloïse Delcros, Sarah Konte, Meret Kraft, Thomas Lefèvre, Anaïs Legros, Marc Lohner and Aliha Thalien.
Guest artists: Louise Le Pape, Edie and Hashim Mboreha and IRCAM composers: Sofia Avramidou, Oren Boneh, Didem Coskunseven and Maxime Mantovani.
The Supersonic Chair is supervised by Vincent Rioux (head of the digital pole), Angelica Mesiti, Julien Prévieux and Julien Sirjacq (artist workshop leaders) for the Beaux-Arts de Paris, and Grégoire Lorieux and Sébastien Naves (computer music directors in charge of teaching) for IRCAM. They are accompanied by Céline Furet and Juliette Hage (curators in residence), Soraya Abdelhouaret and Yucegul Cirak (students in the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" programme).

The 68th edition of Jeune Création will take place in the Cour Vitrée of the Beaux-Arts de Paris, the birthplace of the "Atelier Populaire" in May 1968.
This rapprochement between Jeune Création and the Beaux-Arts de Paris is an opportunity to echo both the history of the association, which accompanied this period of reflection and political commitment of artists, and the exhibition Images en lutte - La culture visuelle de l'extrême gauche en France (1968-1974) which analyzes 50 years later, this moment in history and art history.
From May 13 to 20, 2018, the 68th edition of Jeune Création will present a subjective landscape of the international emerging art scene. The selection made from nearly 1,800 applications, will present 38 artists from 14 different nationalities.
A special feature of Jeune Création is that the selection committee is composed mostly of artists from previous editions. New in 2018, the invitation made to an external personality to join the commission, but also its largely international composition.
This year, the Bunker Palace agency will be in charge of the exhibition's scenography and the visual identity will be designed by Marion Kueny, in collaboration with the edition's organizing committee.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a rich program of events, focusing on performance, video and photography with 3 evening events until 10pm: Saturday 12, Wednesday 16 and Saturday 19 May 2018.

Acte 1
À la recherche de toujours / from March 3 to 28, 2021
This exhibition brings together the work of student artists at the Beaux-Arts de Paris and invited artists to explore the aesthetic and ideological influences of the Middle Ages on the contemporary world. The exhibition takes the form of a game board strewn with dragons, churches, armors or magic plants. Reinventing modern myths, imagining a pre-capitalist or pre-patriarchal utopia or even a post-collapse Roman Empire utopia, rethinking production techniques, these are just a few of the avenues that motivate artists, designers and philosophers to seize the fantastic universe of the Middle Ages in our time. In all these themes, the exhibition focuses more specifically on the use of fiction through games: video games, role-playing games, sets and costumes, Warhammer game table and cosplay costume.
Curator: César Kaci, resident curator of the "Exhibition Professions" program and Violette Wood (assistant curator, student of the program)
Production team: Liu Chongyan, Sarah Konté, Marie Grihon, Yannis Ouaked, Kenza Zizi (students in the program)
Sound performances, concerts and the presence of derivative objects for sale in the bookstore will be part of the project.
Eaux d'artifice / from March 3 to 28, 2021
As an element of purification that welcomes the child into the community of the living through baptism as well as a weapon of divine punishment during the flood, water has had a dual image since the first Christian texts. It retains this ambiguity over the centuries, passing from a rare element of first necessity in the medieval period and its wells to an ornamental component of the fairy tale of the century of Louis XIV. Eaux d'artifice, which borrows its title from Kenneth Anger's film, explores - through a selection of printed books from the collection of the Beaux-Arts de Paris and a drawing, specially conceived by the two co-curators Victoire Mangez and Juliette Green - this metamorphosis of water into an ornament: from the thin, hidden resource of the well to the enlarged basin of the fountain, from medieval illuminations to the Grandes Eaux of Versailles.
Curator: Alexandre Leducq, curator of manuscripts and prints, with Victoire Mangez (exhibition skills) and Juliette Green, a 2020 graduate of the Beaux-Arts de Paris
Guided tours of the exhibition will be offered by Alexandre Leducq and Victoire Mangez.
Mon chien mon avenir / from March 3 to 28, 2021
The dog in question here is a metaphor for art from the artist's point of view: "his" art, "his" production, "his" artistic practice - that thing that itches and follows the artist when he turns around; we throw it a bone, it's not enough, it asks for more. It is then necessary to tame it, to speak to it, to look after it, to play with it, so that perhaps it answers us. We no longer know who belongs to the dog or to the master, to the artist or to his production. Conscious of the uncertainty of the future, but with the certainty that there is one, the exhibition proposes here wandering gestures, images under the coat, forms by strata. They have been obtained by simple actions: to damage, to dismantle, to gather, to pierce, to scratch. The dog wanders: here are leaves that greet you, a pile of bones that come to life, a bar full of holes that never stays thirsty, assemblages of wires and plastics that litter the studio floor, sunflowers with gaping hearts, a dog drawn with a lighter that bites its own tail...
Curator: Marie Grihon, curator-in-residence, "Exhibition Professions" program
Sound experimentation projects will accompany the exhibition.
Des Feux comme des Aurores / March 3 to April 4, 2021
This exhibition brings together artists whose work - and more specifically its conception (mental, formal) - seems to be animated by a common logic: the perpetual movement, the constant mutation of bodies, the indeterminacy of form and the desire of accomplishment dedicated by the matter in it. The works presented, all full of strength and a contained impetus, are living, vibrant forms, animated by a breath, a presence, and pose an assumed look at their origins and their future.
Curator: Esteban Neveu Ponce, resident curator, "Exhibition Professions" program
Guided tours of the exhibition will be offered.
Abes Fabes Kartoflyabes / March 3 to April 4, 2021
Abes Fabes Kartoflyabes is a magic formula used by the creatures of the Nordic mythology to operate on the humans a reduction of scale. Photography leaves its vernacular terrain and its nostalgia for travel to exist as a trace and as evidence. Through the prism of photography, an ignored dimension is revealed where the gaze is no longer absorbed in a reality that exceeds and engulfs it, but involved in a distance that allows it to understand forgotten mechanisms, to perceive imperceptible details, realities invisible to the naked eye. Tiling of silent horizons but not without echoes to the primitive language of the landscape. An attempt to free our habits of looking to see what we no longer see because of our pictorial culture.

Due to the latest government regulations, the Exhibition Theatre will unfortunately not be open to the public for the time being. It will be open from 14 April to 15 May only by appointment to professionals in the strictest respect of sanitary conditions.
For the first time, until 2022, the programme of the Palais des Beaux-Arts is entirely designed, developed and implemented by the 25 students of the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" course and the 11 young curators in residence at the Beaux-Arts de Paris. From 14 April to 29 May 2021, discover the seven new projects of Act 2 of the Theatre of Exhibitions, presented in a series of rooms fitted out for the occasion. Each in its own way, these exhibitions cross time by confronting the heritage works of the School's collections with the contemporary works of professors and students. This joyful, disorderly and experimental laboratory challenges the very principle of the exhibition with forms that are still unspeakable and sometimes confusing.
From March 2021 to January 2022, masterpieces from the collections of the Beaux-Arts de Paris and the creations of young artists from the School and their teachers are brought together in a succession of exhibitions. This composite piece will feature both fully completed works and others still being put together or even developed. It is written by the students of the first two classes of the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" course at the Beaux-Arts de Paris*, accompanied by young curators in residence and guided by the School's curators, theoreticians, professors and staff.
The Exhibition Theatre is developed and produced by the first two classes of the "Artists & Exhibition Professions" course:
Class of 2019/2020: Lina Benzerti, Brune Doummar, Milana Dzhabrailova, Sarah Konté, Corentin Leber, Chongyan Liu, Victoire Mangez, Bram Niesz, Yannis Ouaked, Violette Wood, Kenza Zizi. Curators in residence 2019/2020: Simona Dvořáková, Marie Grihon, César Kaci, Alice Narcy, Esteban Neveu Ponce.

Act 2
Tout me trouble à la surface / April 14 to May 16, 2021 Tout me trouble à la surface is a solo exhibition by Éléonore False, created at the end of a residency at Beaux-Arts de Paris. The artist's interest was in the scientific photography collections of the 19th century. The doctor Duchenne de Boulogne (1806-1875), known for his "Ovals", used it to document his research into the application of new electrical processes to the facial muscles of his guinea pigs in order to decipher "The Mechanism of Human Physiognomy". From the original photographs, Éléonore False proceeded to a series of manual and mechanical steps of reproduction, selection, cutting and enlargement. The artist's work gives a new point of view on the source image, giving a new aura to these fragments of faces. Éléonore False focuses the viewer's attention on the effects produced by this artificial stimulation: the face has become a mask. It is the instrument of a myological cartography of emotions, sometimes bordering on a pathetic or burlesque effect that derives from the grins and grimaces. These face masks arouse empathy. What could be more characteristic of our troubled society, which struggles to read any expression on faces, than a need to listen, to be considered and to respond to passions? The personal album in which the doctor recorded the proofs of his research appears as a metaphor for the exhibition. On the floor, an incised carpet suggests the latent life of the images in an imaginary sub-basement. The reflection on the therapeutic relationship has recently been decoupled by philosophers from the sole scientific authority, in order to be open to all, in an ethic of care.
Works from the collections are also presented in the exhibition.
Éléonore False is an artist who graduated from Beaux-Arts de Paris in 2013. She teaches at the Institut supérieur des arts de Toulouse. She was assisted by Sarah Boulassel, intern, and Paul-Emile Bertonèche and Daniel Gutiérrez Galicia, students in the "Exhibition Professions" programme.
Curator: Kathy Alliou - with Anne-Marie Garcia, curator in charge of photographs, and Alice Thomine-Berrada, curator in charge of paintings.
Scenography: Valentine Graziani, student of Ecole nationale supérieure d'architecture Paris-Malaquais
Une moraine d'objets / from 14 April to 16 May 2021
The "Heads of Expression" competition was an exercise in artistic technique at Beaux-Arts de Paris that reflected the artists' ability to convey emotion. Jealousy, pride, anger, etc. were thus proposed to the aspiring artists as a means of transcending the contingencies of the material, where a leaning eyebrow or a thinking look could breathe a semblance of life into the inert block of clay or the colours spread out on the canvas.
The works presented here bear witness to an absence, that of the mood they are supposed to evoke. Drawn from the School's collections, they are an amputated gallery of disassociated figures. These portraits, these faces that take shape through subtraction, are ultimately addressed to our ability to occupy the voids, to recompose the whole body through the sum of its fragments.
This project proposes a reflection on the remanence of things, surface images and optical illusions. Whether they work with military technologies, traditional painting techniques or the phenomenological materiality of sculpture, the artists presented put physical reality and hypothetical projections in tension.
Artists : Jean-Charles Bureau, Florentine Charon and Victoire Thierrée, artists in residence at Beaux-Arts de Paris.
Scenography: Ana Marta Lins and Carol Vasques, students of Ecole nationale supérieure d'architecture Paris-Malaquais
Le temps est détraqué / 14 April to 23 May 2021
Le temps est détraqué focuses on the possibilities of autonomous temporal spaces and the scenic potential of a gathering place. By mixing various temporalities, their anachronistic and ghostly aspects, this exhibition questions a presence and experience that is born from our surroundings.
The poetic environment exists here through the works, conceived in resonance with each other and with the space itself. Composed of technological waste, playful, illusory gestures, various devices, the flashing light and electrical energy that powers them, the works provoke fleeting images of the real abandoned, both deranged and mad in a deranged time. The fluidity of this unreal spectacle oscillates between a "romantic sobriety" and a "contemporary baroque". The random and synchronized visual and acoustic elements unfold like a score made up of digital parameters, as in the logic of the sound language, magical and universal "Zaoum" of the Russian futurist Khlebnikov. The spectators can enter, pass, hallucinate, think, forget or dream... They find themselves in a cognitive labyrinth that leads to an individual experience through sensory cues. Sometimes, by their mere presence, they embody the plastic expression of this relational study and the way the human body experiences it.
Artists presented: Flora Bouteille, Léa de Cacqueray Aurélia Declercq, Katya Ev, Tania Gheerbrant, Francisco de Goya, Claire Isorni, Július Koller, Prosper Legault, Victor Villafagne, Thomas Teurlai.
Exhibition activated by Thomas Benard, Vincent Rioux and Tanguy Roussel.
In collaboration with Grégoire Rousseau and Nora Sternfeld.
Curator: Simona Dvořáková, resident curator in the "Exhibition Professions" programme, assisted by Johanna Fayau, Yannis Ouaked and Rémi Parcollet.
Jardin secret / 14 April to 29 May 2021
Published more than a hundred years ago, Freud's sexual theory is still criticized, interpreted, defeated and refuted in gender studies. Needless to say, there are several key reasons for deconstructing these ideas. One is the link Freud makes between heteronormative sexual drives and efficient functioning, which will soon be promoted with force by capitalist thought. Nevertheless, it is clear that his idea of normal, orderly sexual development is an intangible, even unattainable ideal.
Visiting the "Secret Garden" allows each of us to rethink our childhood sexuality according to the Freudian model and thus to test its relevance or obsolescence. This exhibition wishes to underline the too decisive separations outlined by Freud in his linear scheme of libidinal drives. This is evidenced by his fatalistic and generalising way of equating, for example, the 'Mother-fed Few' with dependency and the 'Mother-fed Too Many' with dominance. In order to arouse the curiosity of the viewers to also discover stages of development that they are "not supposed" to experience, the exhibition will be set up as a labyrinth. This scenography aspires to offer a more global and entangled view on the composition of our sexualities and personalities.
Participating artists: Soraya Abdelhouaret, Chadine Amghar, Hugo Bonnet, Thomas Buswell, Petrit Halilaj, Qian Han, Nino Kapanadze, Achille-François-René Leclère, Dominique Lefèvre-Desforges, Ella Navot, Julien Prévieux, Charlotte Simonnet, Violette Wood

Time Capsule 2045 / 7 to 23 May 2021
Time capsules are objects or works intended to be discovered after a more or less long time. As a form of address to future generations, they bear witness to a present era as much as to a relationship with the future. In today's anxiety-inducing ecological and political context, this exhibition proposes to question the notion of the time capsule, to address new works to the future and to defend the importance of anticipation and speculative fiction in order to reveal the multiple possibilities of the present.
Seventeen artists were invited to place a work known only to them in an archival box to be opened in 25 years. In conjunction with the creation of these time capsules, artists, musicians, writers and theorists from different disciplines propose sound creations imagining the context of 2045, when they will be unveiled.
With the "Time Capsules" by Renaud Auguste-Dormeuil, Keren Benbenisty, Christophe Berdaguer and Marie Péjus, Joi Bittle, Charbel-joseph H. Boutros, Julia E. Dyck, Maíra Dietrich, Daniel Frota, Mark Geffriaud, Kenneth Goldsmith, Paula Hayes, Zoé Leonard, Falk Messerschmidt, Gala Porras-Kim, Suha Traboulsi, Yann Sérandour, Pedro Zylbersztajn.

Dyck, Louise Hervé and Clovis Maillet, Hanne Lippard, Falk Messerschmidt, Ariane Michel, Slow Reading Club with Charlie Usher, The Bells Angels (Simon Bernheim and Julien Sirjacq) and Pedro Zylbersztajn.
With proposals from students of the Beaux-Arts de Paris (Julien Sirjacq's studio), ENSA Paris-Cergy and ESAD TALM Angers: Carl Amiard, Hugo Bonnet, Jade Boudet, Chloé Cordiale, Lina Filipovich, Claire Jacques, César Kaci, Jiyeon Kim, Loick Mfoundou, Théo Pall, Olivier Perusat, Lois Saumande, Lalie Thebault-Maviel, Jing Yuan.

Ouverture / 28 and 29 May 2021
Since 2016, Lénio Kaklea has been developing Encyclopédie pratique, a multidisciplinary project that consists of the creation of a non-exhaustive corpus of daily, intimate, visible or invisible practices in Europe. From this corpus, the choreographer proposed to the students of the Emmanuelle Huynh workshop to question the multiple practices that make up their own artistic research (introspection, discussion, flânerie, sport, painting, assembly of objects etc). Through individual and group exercises, the students created a living encyclopaedia of their ongoing artistic journeys.
Curated by Lénio Kaklea, choreographer, dancer and writer, with the Emmanuelle Huynh workshop
