Vasconcelos Versailles
Château de Versailles, Versalhes
Exposição Individual
19.06.2012 - 30.09.2012
Curatorship : Jean-François Chougnet
«Since 2008, the Estate of Versailles has been opened up to contemporary art. An opportunity to create a dialogue between the great artists of the Baroque period – Jules Hardouin-Mansart, André Le Nôtre, Charles Le Brun, Ange-Jacques Gabriel – and contemporary artists: Jeff Koons in 2008, Xavier Veilhan in 2009, Takashi Murakami in 2010 and Bernar Venet in 2011. Encounters that are sometimes contrasting and at other times overlapping mergers, in all cases showing that Versailles is a living place open to creativity.
In 2012, the Portuguese artist Joana Vasconcelos, born in 1971 in Paris, will be the guest of Versailles. Her sculptures, some of which have been produced specifically for this exhibition, will be presented to the public from June to September 2012.
