Alexandre Hollan: Le chemin de l'Arbre
Sándor Hollán left Hungary in 1956 and has lived in France ever since. He was a student of Chapelain-Midy in the studio of the Parisian École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts and then graduated in graphic design from the École Nationale Supérie. From this time onwards his main motif has been the tree, which he generally approaches in series of mostly Indian ink or charcoal drawings. These motionless, simple objects cast in identical light serve as an ideal model for Hollán, who redefines the role of colour in form-creation. In his still-lifes colour defines deeply hidden internal space. In addition to close to 80 works by Sándor Hollán the exhibition will also showcase works by other artists. Exhibition: Szépmüvészeti Múzeum, Budapest, Hungary (29.11.2011-5.2.2012); Musée Fabre de Montpellier Agglomération, Montpellier, France (3.3.2012-3.6.2012)
Contemporary French Art: Eleven studies
Ben Vautier, Niki De Saint Phalle, François Morellet, Louise Bourgeois, Alexandre Hollan, Claude Viallat, Sophie Calle, Bernard Pagès, Jean-Pierre Pincemin, Annette Messager, Gérard Titus-Carmel: eleven major French artists of the last forty years or so, examined in the light of their uniqueness and their rootedness, the specificities of their differing and at times overlapping plastic practices and the swirling and often highly hybridised conceptions entertained in regard to such practices. Thus does analysis range from discussion of the feisty, Fluxus-inspired, free-spirited funkiness of Ben Vautier's work to the various modes of transcendence of trauma and haunting fear generated by th...

Yves Bonnefoy, lumière et nuit des images
Habitée par l'énigme, l'image ne cesse de nous provoquer dans nos certitudes et ouvre au " leurre " comme à la " présence ", dirait Yves Bonnefoy. Dans ce livre qui est consacré à son œuvre, l'image se trahira sans cesse : éclaire-t-elle ou trompe-t-elle l'être dans son rapport au monde ? Lumière ou nuit de l'image ? Parfois le poète se prononce en faveur de l'image : " L'homme a besoin d'images ". Yves Bonnefoy invoque alors " le blé de l'image ", mais ailleurs il la dévalorise et va jusqu'à mentionner " la boue de l'image aux yeux déserts ", voire sa disparition " Et bientôt même il n'y a plus d'image ", car " leur syntaxe est incohérence, de la cendre ". Il en vient ains...
La question du lieu en poésie
Ce volume se propose d'envisager un large panorama de la poésie du XXe siècle, du surréalisme à nos jours, à travers une interrogation fondamentale sur la question du lieu. Le lieu n'est pas un thème, mais une notion philosophique, tout droit venue de Heidegger mais aussi de Kant et de Platon. Comme nous sommes au XXe siècle, ère de la modernité et de l'incertitude, il se présente sous forme de question. La variété des lieux (ville / campagne) et de la position face à cette question permet de mieux comprendre l'évolution de la poésie au XXe siècle, fortement pensante (le dialogue philosophie/poésie s'impose), et la réflexion sur la notion de lieu ouvre sur une meilleure compréhension de ce qu'est la poésie en général.
Searching for Presence
Yves Bonnefoy's writings have won him praise not only from readers and critics of French poetry, but also, thanks to translations into many other languages, from readers and critics of poetry far beyond the francophone world. Indeed, Bonnefoy may be the most admired poet to have emerged in France since World War II. Yet his art criticism, dazzling in its scope, possibly as original as his poetry, is yet to receive the attention it deserves. Searching for Presence: Yves Bonnefoy's Writings on Art undertakes to fill that lacuna. Elusive, skirting the ineffable, the notion of presence has haunted Bonnefoy for decades. Central to the notion for the poet is the fleeting experience of mutuality between self and other, of lightning transaction in a transient world, of a shared mortal destiny, hence a plenitude within finitude. In an age when so many of his contemporaries seem to view any form of art as wallpaper spanning a void, Bonnefoy's faith in presence is all the more welcome. Focusing on his art criticism, the aspect of the poet's oeuvre in which the notion of presence is the most salient, this study tries to do justice to that fidelity.
