Venice Biennale 2024 - Julien Creuzet

Arter produces “Attila cataracte ta source aux pieds des pitons verts finira dans la grande mer gouffre bleu nous nous nous noyâmes dans les larmes marées de la lune” by Julien Creuzet for the French Pavilion at the 60th Venice Biennale International Art Exhibition.

Created by Julien Creuzet, under the curatorship of Céline Kopp and Cindy Sissokho, the exhibition is designed as an immersive, multi-sensory experience. 

By inviting visitors into a space traversed by fluids, where a radical and collective imaginary opens up, inhabited by divine presences, connected to Venice by its waters and with his own poetry, Julien Creuzet invites us to decentre our gaze and to see the French Pavilion as a space of mobility, visibility and reunion.

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. 

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.

Reiffers Art Initiatives is a foundation created to support young contemporary creation and cultural diversity. 

Reiffers Art Initiatives’ mission is to support France’s new art scene and give it international visibility. It finances and gives exposure to thirty emerging artists every year, who will influence tomorrow’s contemporary art scene.
