MUSÉE D’ART MODERNE DE LA VILLE DE PARIS/ARC
PALAIS DE TOKYO /
DYNASTY
1 exhibition, 2 venues, 40 artists, 80 works
11 June – 5 September 2010
An innovative joint venture for the Musée d’Art Moderne de la
Ville de Paris/ARC and the Palais de Tokyo
This preview-style presentation of a new generation of artists will
occupy the exhibition spaces of the Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville
de Paris/ARC and the Palais de Tokyo in their entirety.
With forty artists occupying in all some 5000 square metres,
"Dynasty" signals both the commitment of the two institutions to the
emergent art scene and a new stage in the ongoing cooperation
between the two wings of the building.
Following the guidelines laid down by Fabrice Hergott,
Marc-Olivier Wahler and their specialist teams, each artist is invited
to show two interrelated works, one at the Musée d’Art Moderne de
la Ville de Paris/ARC, and the other at the Palais de Tokyo. The
intention is to underscore the complementarity between the two
institutions, while providing the artists with a unique opportunity to
extend their range and outreach.
Stereo, symmetry, dialectic: embracing a host of media and stylistic
approaches, the project aims at highlighting these artists' energy,
while also pointing up their questionings, ambiguities and paradoxes.
"Dynasty" is thus a logical extension of the forward-looking agenda
pursued since 1977 by ARC at the Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville
de Paris, notably with the Workshops series – a launchpad for
numerous artists – and by Modules at the Palais de Tokyo, which
has been showing two young artists per month since 2006.
The project aims to sound out the emerging art sensibility in France,
identify its convergences and divergences, and foster its
international impact. "Dynasty" will also testify to the upsurge in
Paris and France generally of art schools, art centres, the Regional
Contemporary Art Collections and alternative venues.
