In 13 days: June 5 → July 28
Du fait main au faire image, des images « source » à leurs usages, des idées vagues aux images claires, les artistes réunis dans cette exposition nous invitent à cerner les dynamiques instables de perception et d’interprétation que leurs œuvres sous-tendent, soulignant aussi bien la subjectivité et la responsabilité de celui qui donne à voir que de celui qui regarde.

Paint it Black
Past: March 13 → May 12
En se référant de façon explicite à la musique, Paint it Black se pare d’un ensemble de partitions qui, sur un mode conceptuel ayant historiquement privilégié le noir et blanc dans sa quête d’idéal, viennent scander l’exposition comme autant de possibles refrains.

Les fleurs américaines
Past: December 13, 2012 → February 17, 2013
“Once upon a time there was a history known as the history of modern art…” The exhibition American Flowers might begin like a tale whose leading characters would be the various artists, curators, historians, and collectors at the hub of 20th century art, not forgetting works, exhibitions and institutions.

Le Grand Restaurant
Past: September 20 → November 18, 2012
To celebrate its 10th anniversary, Le Plateau is holding a solo show of Michel Blazy’s work. The artist uses modest, perishable materials, taken from everyday life, and shows us some of the strange, sumptuous and monstrous things that they contain. Michel Blazy has a predilection for observation, leaving the materials used in the works to evolve over time.

Past: June 7 → July 29, 2012
Legend has it that wherever you are in Japan, you can see Mount Fuji. While in residency at the Villa Kujoyama in Kyoto, we tried to confirm this hypothesis on several occasions. The works exhibited at the Plateau fluctuate between: a collective dynamics based on gestures freed from any productive necessity, an incursion into everyday life.

“Through Somnambular Laws” is Elise Florenty and Marcel Türkowsky’s first exhibition in Paris.

Various repetitions (of language and gesture) convey thoughts prey to delirium or akin to a daze.
