Abbaye de Jumièges - 2013
Ecritures Végétales vidéo 2012
at the Jumièges abbey
The exhibition L’Eau et les Rêves suggests an
incursion into the world of photography with great
contemporaries, culminating in some video works.
With water - signature of Impressionism - as common
thread, L’Eau et les Rêves revives to the themes held
dear to the Impressionists : the light, the passage, fluid,
material, intimate ... many points of convergence,
sometimes resurgence, in any case a complete rewriting
by modern artists who claim and assume the legacy of
their elders.
L’Eau et les Rêves presents forty-three photographic
works by contemporary artists and five video works.
In all, twenty-three artists are associated with the rebirth
of Jumi.ges abbey house, in mirror with amazing
lapidary, witnesses of the history of the place.
From the annoyed by Alain Fleischer, chimeras sitting up
the young asleep princes of Jumi.ges to the underwater
explorations of Philippe Ramette ; from the imaginary
cascade of Didier Massard to the rising diver of Joel
Meyerowitz or the immersed bodies of
Marie-Paule N.gre, from the . new landscapes .
of Bernard Faucon to the enigmatic mirror of water of
Noa Gur, from the game picture/word game of Chris
Quanta to the marine dizziness of Ange Leccia ; from the
wadding fog of Beatrice Pediconi or Ali Kazma to the
enclosed world of Gilbert Garcin ; from the trembling
swell of Paul Thorel to the dark magic of Georges Rousse
or Barbara Luisi ; from the Sahelian cosmogony
of Nicola Lo Calzo to the écritures végétales of Martine
Mougin and to the graphic waters of Patrick Tosani ; from
the poetic paintings of Christophe Campello, Bernard
Descamps, Bernard Plossu or G.rard Rondeau, to the
singularity of Sarah N. Each of these works express the
permanence of emotions that we have inherited from
the Impressionists.
