ALEX CECCHETTI

CENTRE NATIONAL DES ARTS PLASTIQUES (CNAP)
LA NOUVELLE ADRESSE

Le Centre national des arts plastiques (Cnap) ouvre exceptionnellement, avant travaux, les portes de sa « nouvelle adresse » les 14, 15, 16 septembre dans une configuration sans lendemains ni précédents. Performances, musiques et paroles live, œuvres in situ, salon d’écoute et cinéma éphémères sont à découvrir tout le long du week-end dans cet entrepôt de 25 000 m2 , qui accueillera le nouveau Cnap en 2022.

Toute la programmation : www.cnap.fr/lanouvelleadresse

Événement Facebook 

PLUS D'UNE CENTAINE D'ARTISTES RÉUNIS AUTOUR DE 25 PROJETS

Œuvres de la collection et commandes inédites cohabitent, disposées sur le plateau du rez-de-chaussée comme sur une place publique. La peinture/lumière murale de Flora Moscovici, le dessin aérien d'Esther Ferrer, les instruments de Tarek Atoui, le gonflable Video Ozone de Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster, Bernard Joisten, Pierre Joseph et Philippe Parreno constituent autant de stations, activées ponctuellement lors des trois jours d’ouverture.

Les sculptures, installations et performances de Nicolas Moulin, Amalia Pica, Cécile Paris, Davide Balula et Alex Cecchetti semblent émaner du bâtiment, évoquant un passé volontiers fantasmatique.

Une programmation composée par Juliette Pollet,
avec Pascal Beausse, Philippe Bettinelli, Pascale Cassagnau, Sandra Cattini, responsables de
collection (Cnap), Max-Louis Raugel pour le Cneai (programmation LIVE = de La nouvelle adresse), Aymar Crosnier et Fany Corral.
Production artistique : Marc Sanchez, directeur du pôle développement culturel, partenariats et éditions (Cnap).

Vendredi 14 septembre : 19h-5h
