Porticus, Artur Lescher : Palais d’Iéna, FIAC

PORTICUS

As part of FIAC 2017, the Palais d’Iéna is hosting an exhibition by Brazilian artist Artur Lescher.
Presented for the first time in France, the artworks come from Brazilian collections or are made in-situ for the event. They propose an unprecedented dialogue with the modern classicism of the monumental spaces designed by the architect Auguste Perret. Theses volumes are revealed, according to the aesthetic experience of the works of Artur Lescher, as places intrinsically open, articulated and dynamic. Renewing this way with the initial model of the ancient portico and with its democratic dimension, the artist opens the place, symbolically, outwardly but also on a more intimate register, towards the perceptual mechanics of the viewer.
