The walk or the course of the streets, alleys, paths, then paths, reaches the highest point, the most distant, that eight bodies agree, nine days before the winter solstice.<\/span><\/p>\n In a second ascent, the curator Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Blancart joins the artists, to isolate themselves together in a high mountain refuge, after a tumultuous journey through snowy peaks, scree and frozen lake. At more than 2000 meters above sea level, the snow, as everyone’s imprint, becomes an ephemeral sculpture: pits or mounds, lines in hollows or in relief, wakes in different directions and converging in the same azimuth.<\/span><\/p>\n Far from being limited to these two expeditions ,<\/em> the approach continues and announces other explorations and quests for new countries, lands and seas.<\/span><\/p>\n If the march is a pretext for gathering, everyone conceives it in their own way, revealing each individuality, as interdependent on the others. Some perform, collect and archive, others care, cultivate and assemble.<\/span><\/p>\n The steps taken for the exhibition, like breakaways, liberating common constraints, reveal like a primacy, buried animalities and fantasies, sometimes lyrical flights of a hand-to-hand combat with nature.<\/span><\/p>\n Sketching the contours of a territory covered, the exhibition calls for a stroll, through installations, sculptures, drawings, photographs and videos. The works trace the multiplicity of routes: steep paths or paved roads, rocky climbs or sea dives, introspective or collective journeys.<\/span><\/p>\n Celia Vanhoutte, practitioner of traditional Chinese medicine, accompanies the artists from the first steps to the composition of the exhibition. Focusing on the elements and their materials, she develops an energetic scenography which draws, under an a priori<\/i> arbitrary path, complementarities and tensions between the works.<\/span><\/p>\n Curator Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Blancart and poet Tristan Blumel, among other guests, punctuate the exhibition with various events, always in a game of resonances and displacements.<\/span><\/p>\n The Azimuth<\/em> exhibition, both single and multiple, reveals a collective proposal, generated by the intersection of eight singular perspectives.<\/span><\/p>\n –<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n The Azimuth<\/em> exhibition is part of the regional-scale itinerary Des marches,<\/em> D\u00e9<\/em> marches<\/em> , coordinated by the Frac Provence-Alpes-C\u00f4te d’Azur, associated with the Center d’Art de Digne-les-Bains, the Espace of Concrete Art in Mouans-Sartoux and at the Laboratoire de Grenoble.<\/span> Through exhibitions, installations, performances and events, organized during the year 2019, the cultural actors of the territory unite around a common dynamic. Marches,<\/em> D\u00e9marches<\/em> , on an artistic proposal by Guillaume Monsaingeon, stimulates movement as an artistic practice: walking<\/em> , running, climbing, pedaling, swimming, according to rhythms that can go as far as motionless silence, by traversing territories which can be interior, steep, bucolic, urban… Des marches,<\/em> D\u00e9marches<\/em> ,<\/em> explores the incredible richness of travel on a human scale.<\/span><\/p>\n _______<\/span><\/p>\n Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Blancart benefited from the ACROSS curatorial residency of thankyouforcoming, a residency during which he met the artists Camille<\/span><\/span> France-Guerra and Evan Bourgeau*<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” background_animation=”none” css_animation=””][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n <\/p> [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n http:\/\/benoit-barbagli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Vue-dexposition-AZIMUTH-RDC-1-Galerie-Eva-Vautier-\u00a9-photo-Benoi\u0302t-Barbagli.jpg|http:\/\/benoit-barbagli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Vue-dexposition-AZIMUTH-grande-salle-1-Galerie-Eva-Vautier-\u00a9-photo-Benoi\u0302t-Barbagli.jpg|http:\/\/benoit-barbagli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Vue-dexposition-AZIMUTH-grande-salle-2-Galerie-Eva-Vautier-\u00a9-photo-Benoi\u0302t-Barbagli.jpg|http:\/\/benoit-barbagli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/Camille-Franch-Guerra-Convivencia-2019-\u00a9-photo-Franc\u0327ois-Fernandez.jpg|http:\/\/benoit-barbagli.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Carton-dinvitation-AZIMUTH-FINAL-300×214.jpg<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” background_animation=”none” css_animation=””][vc_column][vc_column_text] Azimtuh, Galerie Eva Vautier 12\/04\/2019 – 31\/07\/2019 \u00a0 [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” background_animation=”none” css_animation=””][vc_column][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text] AZIMUTH [\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” background_animation=”none” css_animation=””][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text][\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_empty_space][vc_column_text] Benoit Barbagli , Tom Barbagli , Evan Bourgeau Camille Franch-Guerra, Omar Rodriguez Sanmartin Florent Testa , Anne-Laure Wuillai Opening Friday, April 12 from […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":74315,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"project_category":[881,879,887,875,891,889,877],"project_tag":[],"class_list":["post-91570","project","type-project","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","project_category-2019-en","project_category-collective-en","project_category-eva-vautier-gallery","project_category-exposure","project_category-important","project_category-palam-collective","project_category-past-exhibition"],"yoast_head":"\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/eva-vautier.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/Carton-dinvitation-AZIMUTH-FINAL.jpg\")
