Acacias Art Center - "You are my petrol" Exhibition
Acacias Art Center by Mazarine is pleased to welcome You are My Petrol, My Drive, My Dream, My Exhaust an exhibition by Laure Prouvost. FIAC 2018.
You are My Petrol, My Drive, My Dream, My Exhaust was born from a collaboration between curator Martha Kirszenbaum and the artist Laure Prouvost, selected to represent France at the 2019 Venice Biennale.
Laure Prouvost's immersive films, installations, drawings and wallpapers, combining the representation of desire, onirism and a fantasized description of nature, jeopardize our relationship to language and understanding through the intrication of complex narratives and surrealist moments that feed her unusual approach to the conventions of cinema and image.
The artist gives particular importance to language and its representation, and brilliantly masters this way of playing with words.
It strives to make visible the unimportant objects, those that the consumer system that governs our daily lives has left behind: residues, rubbish, broken or dysfunctional objects, unloved. You Are My Petrol, My Drive, My Dream, My Exhaust reveals the two sides of the same coin, through a diptych of videos that were presented through a resin-based installation, objects such as relics, a motorcycle, an LED or a vodka bar evoking the two environments, one rural and French, the other urban and American.

The temporary exhibition of the French artist Philippe Ramette presents a set of sculptures as well as a series of photographs which draw a path at the same time playful and shifted inviting to the wandering.
In collaboration with the curator Jérôme Sans, Mazarine Image has defined the artistic program of time 2 and developed the communication tools, the communication supports as well as the digital tools of the exhibition.
Philippe Ramette's sculptures and photographs play on the imagination and tend to reverse our perception of the world, while showing a certain tilting of the earth's surface.
Thus, whether they are objects to contemplate, objects to manipulate, or objects to levitate, his works induce actions, gestures, or reflections that allow the viewer to stimulate his or her imagination, to invent his or her own scenario, and to expand, through thought, his or her own experience of reality.
