Architecture and contemporary art share many connections. Their histories intersect, their forms engage in dialogue, which is why the Cit茅 opens its spaces to today鈥檚 creative expression.
Fabienne Verdier Takes Over the Galerie des Moulages
The exhibition Mute brings together around forty paintings created by Fabienne Verdier over the past thirty years. Displayed along a route designed to echo the spectacular volumes of the Galerie d鈥檃rchitecture m茅di茅vale et classique, her works engage in dialogue with the shapes, lines, and silent strength of the heritage architecture.
A New Contemporary Art Cycle at the Cit茅
This event inaugurates a new cycle of modern and contemporary art exhibitions at the Cit茅, conceived by Matthieu Poirier, art historian. This program invites visitors to take a fresh look at the museum鈥檚 collections by crossing disciplines, eras, and aesthetics. The exhibition is also part of the institutional program of Art Basel Paris, affirming the Cit茅鈥檚 commitment to showcasing today鈥檚 creative practices.
Mute: Silence, Gesture, Transformation
The title Mute evokes both silence 鈥 that of a painting rejecting imagery 鈥 and transformation, in the sense of the verb to mutate. Fabienne Verdier explores here an abstract, expressive, and fluid gesture, revealing forms in motion that are both powerful and silent.
