La parade moderne

La parade moderne

TWENTYTWENTY

Conceived as a carnival procession, The modern parade is an ambulatory and sculptural piece, made of ten or so charac ters, joyfully and freely referring to paintings by famous artists from the first half of the XXth Century: Magritte, Ernst, De Chirico, Léger, Munch, Arp, Brauner, Malevitch…
Transposed in a three-dimensional space, as live sculptures, these figures come to life in the landscape, as an open-air art history lesson. At the head of the cortege, a child plays Boléro by Ravel.
When installed in exhibition spaces, the figures are displayed on supports in solid wood.
