Exhibition
Hold Up ! Jean Claude Silbermann

 

Jean-Claude Silbermann holds up the Bank !

From March 25th to June 4th, 2023, The Bank -
Museum of Cultures and the Landscape of Hyères is devoting an exhibition to Jean-Claude Silbermann. Entitled "Hold-Up!", it is conceived as an armed break-in in a public place. The metaphor is transparent: the armed hand is that of the artist with his art whose aim is to shake, even "break" the established conventions to awaken the visitor and transport him to a reality outside the preconceived ideas.

Between excerpts of poetry, wooden montages and ink or pencil drawings, you can also see excerpts from Jean-Claude Silbermann's film: "Mais qui a salé la salade de céleri?", available in DVD+Book box set and on VOD on www.collectionphares.com

Museo delle culture
Milan (ITA)

 
Exhibition
Dalí, Magritte, Man Ray and surrealism

From March 22 to July 30, 2023, the MUDEC (Museo delle culture) in Milan will present a major exhibition dedicated to Surrealism. 180 works from the Boijmans Van Beuningen Museum, one of the most important museums in the Netherlands, will be on display, in relation to the masterpieces of the MUDEC's permanent collection. "Dalí, Magritte, Man Ray and Surrealism" will allow the viewer to explore the complex and profound relationship between Surrealism and non-Western cultures.

It will also be an opportunity to rediscover the fundamental themes of surrealism, from the dreamlike to the psychological, from carnal desire to love. Six different sections will be dedicated to the multiple aspect of surrealist works in all the variety of their representations; each of them introduced by a key sculpture and a quote bringing back to the very origins of surrealism.

It is within this rich framework that excerpts from Fabrice Maze's film "L'œil à l'état sauvage, l'atelier d'André Breton" will be shown. These previously unseen images come from the filming carried out just before the dispersal of André Breton's famous collection, with the aim of immortalizing a space from the past, the memory of the author of the "Manifesto of Surrealism", a founding text published in 1924 whose centenary we will celebrate next year.

 Jacques Vaché joins the Collection Phares, with the film "On the life of Jacques Vaché passing through a very short period of time" directed by Rémy Ricordeau. 

Who was Jacques Vaché ? Like a meteor in the firmament of logical revolts, a poet and artist without a masterpiece but no little destiny, Jacques Vaché indelibly left his mark on the invention of the modern spirit. In his "War letters" he initiates the founder of Surrealism in another, more substantial, way of conceiving of the world and invites him, in the spirit of Umour (without the "h"), to reshape life poetically. Amongst epistolary evocations of the daily life of the war and flashes of poetic brilliance sent from the front to various correspondents, the film endeavours to reconstitute the biographical and intellectual journey of the man who would become the mythical incarnation of the spirit of "desertion" at the origin of Dadaism and Surrealism - from his rebellious adolescence in Nantes to his tragic and controversial demise in the same city in 1919.

Hommage à Alan Glass
 
1932-2023
 

The artist Alan Glass died on January 16, 2023 at the age of 90.

Engraver, watercolorist, painter, his work is composed of boxes "art object", associations of objects found in flea markets, flea markets, at the whim of life. He created from unique and spontaneous triggers faithful to the objective hazards dear to André Breton.

Born in Montreal in 1932, he arrived in Paris in 1952 after studying Fine Arts in Montreal (Quebec). He met André Breton in 1957 who helped him organize an exhibition at the "Terrain Vague" with Benjamin Péret in 1958. But it was in Mexico that he spent most of his life, surrounded by other artists and friends, including Leonora Carrington, Alejandro Jodorowski and Bridget Tichenor. His adopted country will offer him in 2017 the Medal of Fine Arts of the Ministry of Culture of Mexico.

Exhibited in many countries (Canada, France, Germany, United States ...), a major retrospective, "Zurcidos Invisibles" was held in 2008 at the Museum of Modern Art in Mexico City.
