Saturday 27 June, 10:00Galerie Xippas, 75003 [map]Céleste Boursier Mougenot, Michel De Broin, Vlatka Horvat, Lucas Samaras, Philippe Ramette
The exhibition Assises is the opportunity to discover rare works, such as the little-known sculpture by Greek artist
Lucas Samaras, artist of this year's Greek Pavilion at the Venice Biennale, who photographed the cream of New York society in their primitive nudity, seated on, yes, a chair. Céleste Boursier-Mougenot presents Keyboard chairs, a surprising work that conjugates musical harmony with good manners in an installation of chamber music in the form of a waiting room.
Philippe Ramette’s Fauteuil Seatcom, presented at the MAMCO in Geneva last summer, condemns the spectator seeking repose, the surprised latter becoming the victim of prefabricated canned laughter from television sitcoms. The exhibition Assises is also an opportunity to discover work by emerging artists such as
Michel de Broin, a Canadian artist living in Berlin, and
Vlatka Horvat, a Croatian native living in New York.
