Project Room : David Raymond Conroy — L’homme qui voulait savoir
Past: April 14 → May 15
As a meditation on the destructiveness of an obsessive need to know, “L’homme qui voulait savoir” (“The Man Who Had to Know”, English release title “The Vanishing”) by G. Sluizer gives the exhibition its title. David Raymond Conroy uses the dynamics of cinema to create a space in which artist, work and viewer seek each other out about their relative positions.

Winshluss — La Fin est proche !
Past: March 9 → April 7
You might say there are two kinds of artists. The ones who spend their whole lives working on a specific question and those who blow apart all too soon, in mid-flight — in which case, picking up the pieces calls for an atlas and a good GPS. The map shows the great Winshluss deflagration saturating a territory extending from sculpture to drawing, from comics to the movies.

Project Room — Adam Janes Hunter Gatherer
Past: March 9 → April 7
The new cycle initiated by Hunter Gatherer focuses on drawing as a the tangible proof of the existence of a psychic universe. As a way to communicate what cannot be said, it appears as a place where everything is possible, the beginning of an idea, and show the page up for what it is: a black hole, a channel straight to the artist’s brain.

Joachim Mogarra — Magie de l’art photographique
Past: January 20 → March 3
So where has he got to, Joachim Mogarra, that unpredictable artist, poet of everyday objects, historian who mocks the great classical texts? That sporadic demiurge, child lost in the world of grownups, master magician and gatherer of outlandish images?

Alain Bublex — Contributions
Past: October 17 → November 26, 2011
Paris has become ‘Grand Paris’, and must push its historic metro and ring road borders further out so as to unfold the length of the regional express train (RER) and tram tracks. Taking note of this new physiognomy, Alain Bublex attempts to give a face to a metropolis that is only embodied in plans and maps with coloured and abstract lines.

Henrique Oliveira
Past: September 9 → October 9, 2011
The Brazilian artist transfers the dynamic decay he finds at the borders of his native São Paolo to the very heart of Paris. Working with painting, sculpture and installation, Henrique Oliveira unleashes a vibrant series of organic (almost parasitic) forms, textures and colors.

Keith Tyson — Contemporary Grotesques
Past: June 10 → July 30, 2011
Le travail de Keith Tyson met en place un univers d’images, de dessins, de sculptures, d’objets et de machines qui semblent aléatoires et infinies. Celles-ci participent d’une exploration méthodique de l’ensemble des connaissances théoriques et pratiques du monde, dans le dessein utopique et poétique de cerner la façon dont les choses adviennent.

Mike Bouchet — Impulse Strategies
Past: March 18 → April 23, 2011
Those works, which may strike us as mere ironical appropriations at first sight, register the prevailing themes of our time: the predominance of entertainment, sex and consumerism, the promotion of impulse buying through an environment where consumers can be relieved of their negative perceptions of impulse.

On and Off Dutty
Past: January 14 → March 10, 2011
Il existe déjà dans le monde de l’art une légende Odermatt, celle de cet agent de police suisse vivant dans le canton reculé de Nidwalden, où il prit toute sa vie des photographies qui se seraient assoupies sans doute à jamais dans les archives d’un commissariat si le grand Harald Szeemann ne les avait un jour découvertes par hasard.

Jacques Villeglé — La peinture dans la non peinture
Past: October 28 → December 4, 2010
« Son œuvre nous apparaît avant tout comme un fait plastique et comme l’affirmation qu’elle invente la peinture en la détruisant. Villeglé inscrit même son travail tel un commentaire subtil et souvent acerbe de cette instance mythique que représente la peinture. Il lui faut la continuer par d’autres subterfuges. »

Gilles Barbier — There is no Moon whitout a Rocket
Past: May 28 → July 31, 2010
The exhibition “There is no Moon without a Rocket” is an open window on plurality. Each of this set of new pieces stem from “possible worlds” imagined by Gilles Barbier (the World as Thong, the World as a House in a Tree, the World of braided stories, the “Peanut” World…).

Deishû Ni Hasu, un lotus dans la boue
Past: April 16 → May 20, 2010
Le Manga tel que nous le connaissons aujourd’hui est autant un enfant de la tradition artistique japonaise que du trauma de la guerre et de la bombe atomique. Son premier maître est Tezuka et son premier héros Astroboy ; un enfant-robot conçu par un savant rendu inconsolable par le décès de son propre fils.
