COLLECTION (DÉTAIL), DE LA PROVINCE DE HAINAUT EN DÉPÔT AU BPS22 - GRAPHIC DESIGN PROLONGED MASK FOR A COMMEMORATIVE PORTRAIT OF JAURÈS IN THE STYLE OF JACKSON POLLOCK > 07.08.16 © ART & LANGUAGE, VISITORS GUIDE EN UCHRONIAS COLLECTIONS OF THE HAINAUT PROVINCE AND BPS22 MUSÉE D’ART DE LA PROVINCE EXPO DE HAINAUT Province de 27.02.16 > 29.05.16 HAINAUT IN ITS FIRST SEASON, FOLLOWING ITS REOPENING IN SEPTEMBER 2015, THE BPS22 HAINAUT PROVINCE ART MUSEUM, IN CHARLEROI, IS PRESENTING A THREE- SHOW CYCLE OF EXHIBITIONS BASED ON ITS COLLECTIONS. ENTITLED UCHRONIAS, THE FIRST ONE ATTEMPTS TO RECREATE NEW ARTISTIC AFFILIATIONS BETWEEN ANCIENT, MODERN AND CONTEMPORARY ART, TO PRODUCE “OTHER” HISTORIES OF ART, SEPARATE FROM OFFICIAL HISTORY. 3 The term uchronia was first coined in 1857 by the French philosopher Charles Renouvier (1815-1903) in his novel. By creating this neologism from the Greek prefix «u» (no) and the Greek word «chronos» (time), he immediately situated uchronia on a level of pure intellectual speculation; thus paving the way for a prolific literary, and later on, film-making genre. Now that imagination can alter the past, that past becomes a material that can be rearranged and redeployed according to other causal pathways. And if one of the elements of the past is changed, history can/must be rewritten. The new BPS22 exhibition is organised around this very assumption, drawing from its own collection and the collection of the Hainaut Province which is the Museum’s custody. More particularly, with over six thousand works, the collection of the Hainaut Province is an ideal source of inspiration as it embraces more than a century of local, regional and international fine arts.

The 1905 Universal Exhibition building, brilliantly renovated by the architect Rudy Ricciotti, who is responsible for the new extension, and the Liège architectural firm p.HD, has, in less than three years, become a new meeting place for all those in Liège and beyond who are interested in culture and art in particular. A varied programme, through international exhibitions – En plein air, (Outside) with the Musée du Louvre, Révolution bande dessinée (Comic Strip Revolution), with the Hélène & Edouard Leclerc Fund, 21 rue La Boétie, surrounding Paul Rosenberg’s collection, Les Royaumes de la mer – Archipel (The Kingdoms of the Sea - Archipelago), as part of Europalia Indonesia and Viva Roma !, once again with the Louvre – have been some of highlights of these first three years. Other events, such as the Biennale internationale de Gravure (International Engraving Biennale) as well as exhibitions dedicated to renowned artists, such as Raoul Ubac, or to seasoned artists well known in Liège, such as Daniel Fourneau and Fernand Flausch, have been some of the activities of a museum that also sees itself as a place for collective memory: you can both find out the story of a captain of industry named John Cockerill, and of La leçon d’anatomie (The Anatomy Lesson), combining art and medicine to mark the 30th anniversary of the Sart Tilman university hospital.
