Jean-Michel Alberola
Politique, poétique, engagée et profonde, l’œuvre de Jean-Michel Alberola lui permet de réagir par l’art, sur le réel, les sentiments et l’état du monde. Son exposition au Palais de Tokyo initie un voyage qui stimule le regard et la pensée, en cartographiant la diversité méconnue de son travail. Associant des fragments de corps ou de géographies à des énoncés ou des injonctions ambiguës, cet artiste majeur et inclassable de la scène française compose autant de rébus qui interrogent notre regard tout comme le rôle de l’art dans la société. Évoluant entre réflexions artistiques et questionnements politiques, entre conceptualisme, abstraction et figuration, l’œuvre de Jean-Michel Alberola, unique et percutante, n’est jamais dénuée d’humour. Livre publié à l’occasion de l’exposition personnelle de Jean-Michel Alberola au Palais de Tokyo, « L’Aventure des détails », 19.02 – 16.05 2016

Ulla von Brandenburg (English Edition)
From a background rich in literature and the history of arts and architecture—as well as psychoanalysis, spiritism and magic—Ulla von Brandenburg explores the shaping of our social constructs with borrowings from theatrical codes and mechanisms, together with esoteric rituals and popular ceremonies. For her exhibition at the Palais de Tokyo she has conceived a total, constantly evolving project inspired by the theatre, its imaginary realm and its conventions. With ritual as her starting point, she invites the public to experience an immersive reinterpretation of the themes, forms and motifs—including movement, the stage, colour, music and textiles—that fuel her oeuvre. Book published on the occasion of Ulla von Brandenburg’s solo exhibition at the Palais de Tokyo, 21.02 – 13.09.2020
Ragnar Kjartansson
Ragnar Kjartansson compose une œuvre singulière à la croisée de la performance et du cinéma, de la sculpture et de l’art lyrique, de la peinture de plein air et de la musique. Il produit régulièrement de vastes projets interdisciplinaires dont la réalisation implique souvent plusieurs participants – acteurs, musiciens, amis et membres de sa famille. Éprouvant les mécanismes du spectacle et les ressorts de la tragédie, Ragnar Kjartansson parvient conjointement à faire advenir une émotion à travers des gestes mélodramatiques et à révéler la réalité qui se joue dans les fondements de toute interprétation. Par la répétition, véritable motif de son œuvre, Ragnar Kjartansson éclaire l’effort à l’œuvre et la théâtralité de la vie quotidienne. Livre publié à l’occasion de l’exposition personnelle de Ragnar Kjartansson au Palais de Tokyo, « Seul celui qui connaît le désir », 21.10 2015 – 10.01 2016
The Possible Life of Christian Boltanski
Christian Boltanski's votive installations, archives and objects, revolving around the fragile polarities of memory and amnesia, identity and anonymity, have made him one of the world's most renowned contemporary artists. And yet, despite the centrality of biography and testimony to his work, Boltanski's own story is little known and has never been fully told. Published on the occasion of the artist's sixty-fifth birthday, The Possible Life of Christian Boltanski, written in the form of a book-length interview (which the artist likens to a "psychoanalysis" or "confession") with the art historian Catherine Grenier, is Boltanski's oral autobiography. In it, he recounts his unusual wartime chil...
