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.

Loris Gréaud - Musée du Louvre

ARTER produces [I] by Loris Gréaud, in which the artist presents a ghostly, mysterious statue under the Louvre pyramid. 

Loris Gréaud, a French artist renowned for his bold and immersive projects, presents a unique work at the heart of the Louvre Museum.

Conceived in two distinct elements, this project is part of a reflection on space and the increasingly uncertain limits of a work of art. The first part, a mysterious sculpture exhibited beneath the Louvre pyramid, is reflected in a second work, presented at the same time in the Centre Pompidou Forum.

ARTER produces exhibitions and major artistic events for cultural institutions, local authorities and major luxury brands.

ARTER is a European agency with an international reach, promoting responsible, resilient culture with impact. A pioneer in the art production, the agency has been helping artists and players in the arts and culture sector to realize their projects for the past 20 years.
