De Renava x Centre Pompidou
Après La Notte en 2023, qui offrait une promenade dans une nuit méditerranéenne, De Renava et le Centre Pompidou s’associent à nouveau pour présenter la seconde partie de ce diptyque : Plein Soleil.
Following on from La Notte in 2023, which took visitors on a stroll through a Mediterranean night, De Renava and the Centre Pompidou are once again teaming up to present the second part of this diptych: Plein Soleil.
The exhibition offers an immersive, atmospheric wandering experience in the light and colour that the artists explore for their physical, perceptual and philosophical dimensions.
The selection features major works of contemporary art, such as installations by Robert Irwin and Carlos Cruz Diez, which illustrate how light and its chromatic modulations are becoming an artistic medium in their own right, weaving an intimate bond between man and his environment in a relationship that is essential to our understanding of the world. In this way, it cuts across the many currents and disciplines that seek to reconnect humanity with nature through art.
Under the artistic direction of Prisca Meslier (director of Renava), Philippe-Alain Michaud (chief curator, cinema collection, Musée national d'art moderne - Centre Pompidou) and Philippe Bettinelli (curator, new media collection, Musée national d'art moderne - Centre Pompidou).
Sous le commissariat artistique de Prisca Meslier (directrice De Renava), Philippe-Alain Michaud (conservateur en chef, collection cinéma, Musée national d’art moderne − Centre Pompidou) et Philippe Bettinelli (conservateur, collection nouveaux médias, Musée national d’art moderne − Centre Pompidou)
