Now completely enveloped in stainless steel plates, the building will act as a mirror for the beautiful park in which it stands. The metamorphosis was presided over by internationally renowned artist Xavier Veilhan, architects Bona- Lemercier and set designer Alexis Bertrand. This new contemporary art space, a project carried out by Communauté d’agglomération de Marne et Gondoire*, as a part of the Parc Culturel de Rentilly, will act as a unique and singular window open to the world. The frac île-de-france** – which is already present in Paris with its own temporary exhibition space, le plateau – will exhibit its collection (and will also invite other collections, public or private, French and international) in le château de Rentilly, thus playing with the status of the building: it is at once a sculpture and an exhibition space freely accessible to the public. The new château de Rentilly is an expression of the revived focus on the historical legacy and the enthusiasm of the Communauté d’agglomération for art and public commitment. Le château de Rentilly thus metamorphosed will be inaugurated with the exhibition Explore.* : with regard to a new building to be discovered, the exhibition takes this idea of discovery and exploration as a point of departure for making a selection of works within the collection of frac île-de-france. In this respect, it is especially the notion of space that these works broach in a very diversified way for novel experiments. * The urban community of Marne et Gondoire ** The Regional Contemporary Art Fund of Île-de-France The rehabilitation work for Le château has been carried out by the Communauté d'agglomération de Marne et Gondoire, with the support of the ministère de la Culture et de la Communication, the Région Île-de-France and the Département de la Seine-et-Marne. * Explore.

In this particular context, with regard to a new building to be discovered, the decision of the exhibition was to take this idea of discovery and exploration as a point of departure for making a selection of works within the collection. In this respect, it is especially the notion of space that these works broach in a very diversified way for novel experiments. A large loft linking up with the ‘white cube’ but defying explanation (Pierre Bismuth & Michel Gondry), flying over a seascape against a backdrop of ghostly evocations (Laurent Grasso), sombre representations of the black sea in its cardinal points or particularly hazy abysses (Dove Allouche), it is actually often a question of confronting reality in its spatial dimension as if the better to grasp it. But like these ever anonymous figures, in spite of all attempts to recognize them (Ulla von Brandenburg), or like these images that a solar light beam intermittently lightens (Mark Geffriaud), reality tends to endlessly elude us when we try to circumscribe it, making way for so many unresolved mysteries. Circumvolutions, cycles and rotations: another feature of the show lies in the fact of presenting a number of pieces very formally incorporating the figure of the circle and the loop. From the gesture of bypassing which is the basis of Ulla von Brandenburg’s film (Around, 2005)—in a loop–, to the 360° revolutions adopted by Pierre Bismuth’s, Mark Geffriaud’s and Philippe Decrauzat’s pieces, this figure and its many different forms stake out the exhibition like so many footholds in the space. There is also a figure of movement: beyond an eternal return and the reflexive form it symbolizes, it corresponds to this idea of displacement suggested by the exhibition and the overall proposal. Explore., or the need to walk around the different spaces of the new Rentilly castle… Xavier Franceschi * Interprète. Le plateau, Paris (28.03 – 11.05.14) ; Explore. Le château, Rentilly (22.11.2014 – 22.03.2015) ; Célèbre. Mamco, Genève. (16.02 – 10.03.15) 4 Interviews with the different actors involved in the project Michel Chartier and Xavier Franceschi Michel Chartier is President of the Communauté d’agglomération de Marne et Gondoire (Marne et Gondoire Urban Community) Xavier Franceschi is director of the frac île-de-france (Ile-de-France Regional Contemporary Art Collection) Xavier Franceschi: The frac île-de-france has been a partner of the Parc culturel de Rentilly since 2006, with an initial exhibition proposed in the castle’s outbuildings. Based on that first collaboration, we decided to carry on the experiment with one to two annual exhibitions devised on the basis of the frac’s collection. A real partnership has in fact been established between the Parc culturel and the frac, including in particular a common jury dealing with artists’ residencies. Eight years after those early days, how do you appraise this partnership and this contemporary art project? Michel Chartier: The Parc culturel project, supported by this partnership which we have set up together, has offered an opportunity to inform and raise the awareness of the people of Marne et Gondoire about contemporary art, and cultural issues which were previously not really part and parcel of their daily lives. The exhibitions held have made it possible to present works from the frac collection in an unusual way, and bring life to the whole park by way of the exhibition venues. XF: Precisely… we have become involved together in a new project, and a not inconsiderable one at that, because what is involved is the renovation of the castle, which had fallen into disuse. Given its architecture, which is of little value, heritage-wise—the building is not listed as a historic monument—I suggested that you do something totally novel with it: put that renovation in the hands of an artist. And you agreed… MC: Since the Communauté d’agglomération de Marne et Gondoire set up shop in the Domaine de Rentilly, we have launched several phases of renovation. Renovating the castle was part of our projects, but I didn’t see the interest of an identical renovation which would not have been very attractive…I wanted the Rentilly park to be identified as a an artistic place, so making the castle a work of art itself could be an enticing proposition! We therefore launched a call for tenders for the project, and studied the submissions of the various candidates. We asked different institutions and for that renovation we obtained the backing of the ministère de la Culture et de la Communication in the form of a public commission. XF: The idea—a very simple one, in the end—is actually to make the castle both a place totally suitable for the presentation of exhibitions and an artwork in its own right. Xavier Veilhan, who won the competition that was organized with that in view, totally integrated the whole thing by proposing nothing less than a sculpture on the scale of the building, which will have wonderful exhibition areas. The gesture is radical. The result won’t leave people indifferent. MC: This is a chance being offered to the Domaine to rethink the architecture of this place thanks to the way a great artist like Xavier Veilhan looks at things. We are duty bound to grasp this opportunity and share it with the inhabitants of Marne et Gondoire. I’m prepared to defend this choice among the public, and explain it. The Parc culturel must move forward, and this is what it is doing with this original and novel project. XF: This project is at once part of the development plan for the Parc culturel de Rentilly and part of the development plan that involves the frac île-de-france. As it happens, it is a question of establishing not a “second generation” FRAC, where everything is brought together in a single site, but a multi-site FRAC with different footholds in the region.

  • PRESS RELEASE Competition for Artistic Intervention on State Buildings
    PRESS RELEASE Competition for Artistic Intervention on State Buildings The "Crocodile", a legendary swiss locomotive brought back to life by Olivier Mosset and Xavier Veilhan In the competition for artistic intervention on the state buildings of PLATEFORME 10, the jury awarded the prize to the artists Olivier Mosset (CH) and Xavier Veilhan (F) for their "Crocodile" project, a monumental painted metal sculpture inspired by the legendary locomotive The jury members were attracted by the iconic aspect of the proposal and its strong connection to the history of the site. The work will be produced to accompany the gradual opening of PLATEFORME 10 from 2019. "Crocodile" will be moved around the site to follow the progress of the project and the opening of the Musée Cantonal des Beaux-Arts (mcb-a), then the building that will house the Musée de l’Elysée and the mudac. The ten jury members met for two days and examined 16 projects for the selective tender competition for the production of an artistic intervention on the PLATEFORME 10 site. With a budget of 567'000 francs (for the competition organisation and the production of the artistic intervention), the competition was overseen by the State of Vaud department of buildings, heritage and logistics (SIPaL). Following its deliberations, the almost unanimous jury named the "Crocodile" project, by artists Olivier Mosset and Xavier Veilhan, a monumental painted metal sculpture inspired directly by the iconic appearance of the locomotive "Ce 6/8II", nicknamed "Crocodile" for its distinctive shape and color. The sculpture was the result of the combined efforts of the two artists who had never worked together before.

  • Xavier Veilhan «Orchestra» 76 Rue De Turenne : 10 Septembre - 12 Novembre, 2011
    Xavier Veilhan «Orchestra» 76 rue de Turenne : 10 septembre - 12 novembre, 2011 « Orchestra » sonne sous la direction de l’artiste Xavier Veilhan telle une polyphonie d’objets renouvelant la perception de l’espace de la Galerie Perrotin à Paris. Cet événement, par les oeuvres présentées - pour la plupart inédites -, marque un tournant en même temps qu’il amorce un retour introspectif dans la démarche de l’artiste. Les nouvelles formes présentées ne sont pas une négation des travaux antérieurs, mais plutôt inscrites dans leur continuité. « Le Mobile n°4 » ou les « Stabiles » se placent par exemple dans le champ ouvert par Calder et exploité de manière contemporaine à plusieurs reprises par Xavier Veilhan. Il revient aussi à la peinture, en nous présentant des images désuètes - arbres, oiseaux – de fabrication traditionnelle, qui tranchent à première vue avec la technicité de certaines oeuvres comme « Turbine » et contredisent même l’autonomie de production des « Pendule Dripping ». Xavier Veilhan rappelle de ce fait son intérêt pour l’évolution de la technique au regard de l’histoire de l’art. « Orchestra » est toutefois une synthèse paradoxale, car si les oeuvres se placent dans une continuité conceptuelle ou thématique, elles marquent également un tournant visuel et formel dans l’approche de l’artiste. « Marine » par exemple, n’est pas facettée comme l’étaient les « Architectes ». Cette sculpture, plus vraisemblable, explicite le statut d’empreinte du réel qu’occupe la statuaire dans le travail de Xavier Veilhan.

  • Xavier Veilhan «Orchestra» 76 Rue De Turenne : September 10 - November 12, 2011
    Xavier Veilhan «Orchestra» 76 rue de Turenne : September 10 - November 12, 2011 “Orchestra” rings out under the direction of the artist Xavier Veilhan as a polyphony of objects, renewing the perception of space in the Galerie Perrotin in Paris. The event marks a turning point through works that, for the most part, have never been seen before. At the same time, it initiates an introspective turn in the artist’s modus operandi. The new shapes displayed are not a negation of previous works, but rather inscribed in their continuity. “Mobile n°4” and “Stabiles” lend themselves readily to the visual field opened by Calder, which Xavier Veilhan exploits in a contemporary manner time and again. He also returns to painting by presenting old-fashioned images rendered traditionally; trees and birds that at first glance contrast sharply with the technical skill of certain works like “Turbine” and even contradict the autonomy of production of “Pendulum Dripping”. Xavier Veilhan thus evokes his interest for technique and its evolution in accordance with art history. “Orchestra” is, however, a paradoxical synthesis, because even though the works are situated in a conceptual or thematic continuity, they also mark a visual and formal turning point in the artist’s approach. “Marine” for example, is not faceted in the way the “Architects” were. This more plausible sculpture clarifies the status of the imprint of the real that sculpture maintains in Xavier Veilhan’s method. The space is encompassed by exhibition techniques setting up instances of direct confrontation between the spectator and the figures represented. “The Monument” sets up a truly suprematist architectural space – another development in the work of Xavier Veilhan – and is thus made practicable to visitors.

Two new sculpture collections are being presented, the Stabiles and the Figures on plinths. Xavier Veilhan explores the conventions of classical statuary through a modernist and avant-garde aesthetic. During La Force de l’Art in 2006, the installation Le Baron de Triqueti, rendered this temporal oscillation of the artist, which also leads him to combine the most advanced technology with a traditional workmanship, palpable. For the past few years, Xavier Veilhan has been using a three dimensional sensing technique to make statues of friends or famous personalities who pose for him, produced from computer files that reproduce a «cloud of points». The series, The Architects in the gardens of Versailles in 2009, unveiled portraits ranging from realistic representation to the limits of abstraction.

Arched and angled, blocked and striated, cut from pure shimmering color endlessly faceted, the city accumulated, stabbed, stacked, as if some geologic force thrust each perfect form slipping through earth. An elegant skyward rise, a knife stabbing the air. The crystal grew slender spires sharp as needles and hard angled towers like abandoned stacks of boxes, in unwavering geometric certitude and odd, undulating shimmies. Either windowless or simply a single solid opaque block, an eruption of ancient stone from the deepest bejeweled caverns of the earth or advanced tech crafted by evolved humans or something stranger and exponentially more sophisticated. A gemmy crust that could cover the earth forever or a mirage that might vanish as quickly and silently as it appeared. The color of the glass seemed both luminous and reflective, its chroma a liquid living force but hard in a way that no human stress or strain could snap. Ultramarine blues and skypure cobalts, sundropped yellows and dragon’s blood reds, Indian turquoise and milky amaranth, arboreal greens and uncompromising ebonies, decadent red and merciful amethyst, unblanched ecru and chocolate brown, the darkening orange of old flames and the blue-white of fresh snow.
