    TANIA Ecritures - Galeristes Words 2019 – Section MOURAUD 1975 -2019 Anthologie Galerie Claire Gastaud GALERISTES 2019 18 – 20 octobre 2019 Carreau du Temple, Paris Tania Mouraud ne cesse de réinventer sa pratique depuis la fin des années soixante par le biais de médiums variés. Sa démarche questionne les rapports esthétiques entre l’art et la violence de notre monde, ainsi que les limites de la perception au travers de ses « mots de forme ». Depuis 1998, elle les conçoit en parallèle à une pratique de la photo, de la vidéo et du son dans un rapport étroit à la peinture. En 1971, l’artiste considère que la viabilité de l’objet d’art dépend de la relation entre celui qui voit, l’acte de voir et l’objet vu. Elle explique que « bien que cette relation apparaisse sous la forme d’une triade dont chaque partie serait autonome, ces trois parties son indissolublement liées » et que par conséquent « CELUI QUI VOIT = L’ACTE DE VOIR = L’OBJET VU ». Sa production prend alors un tournant conceptuel qui lui impose de ne mettre en oeuvre plus que les mots et le langage. Elle tente à l’époque de rendre chacun conscient des mécanismes de perception qu’il engage face à une oeuvre. Enracinée dans ce terreau spéculatif, sa série récente des « Mots Mêlés » éprouve comme jamais les frontières de l’abstraction et interroge d’une nouvelle manière les trois composantes citées plus haut, cette-fois ci placées sous le signe du jeu et de l’aléatoire. Élodie Stroecken Tania Mouraud keeps reinvent her work since the end of the 60’s through various mediums.

Often turning away from ‘trends’, to which she proposes an implicit visual counter-culture, she plays a role in the history of art that is feminine, literary and self-taught, in a milieu long marked by the patriarchal seal. Through reasoned experimentation with every medium at her disposal, she has constructed a personal, committed artistic path, which protean works mark like beacons. I consider that I’m a thinking citizen, I have my opinion on the city, on politics in the Greek sense of the term. And it’s an opinion that I share. In 2015 the Centre Pompidou-Metz devoted a keenly awaited retrospective to her, acknowledging the historic place of this artist in the contemporary French landscape. The Rabouan Moussion gallery will present From Chaos to Art, a personal exhibition, from October 14 to November 25, 2017. In 1968, upon returning from the Documenta exhibition in Kassel, Tania Mouraud burned all her canvases. Since this auto-da-fé, a founding artistic gesture, she has dedicated herself as much to installation and sculpture as to interventions in public spaces, photography, video, sound art and performance, displaying a definite longevity on the artistic scene because always anchored in current issues.

  • Tania Mouraud
    TANIA MOURAUD Tania Mouraud OTNOT May 19 - July 31 2016 A highly respected figure of the artistic scene in France, Tania Mouraud has her first personal exhibition in Romania, a meaningful country with respect to her family background. Using the entire gallery space at EASTWARDS PROSPECTUS and curated by Elodie Stroecken, the exhibition includes works from the beginning of the ‘00s up until now, which gravitate around photography, video art, sound and digital art. The title of the exhibition is borrowed from the famous De Rerum Natura (On the Nature of Things) by Roman philosopher Lucretius. In the translation of the doctrine written by Epicurus, Lucretius describes the creation of the world, the emergence of civilization and the episode of the great plague in Athens, as a parable of the contemporary stakes for saving the human species. Photography works are presented on the first floor of the gallery, among which the latest series named Balafres (Open Wounds). This series, initiated in 2014, immerses the viewer deep in the heart of Germany’s lignite mining sites, symbols of schizophrenia in a society which idealizes energetic transition and renewable energy, while half of its energy production comes from highly polluting combustion of raw materials, achievable only through mass destruction of the landscape and every living soul. Through her works, Tania Mouraud succeeds in showing the real proportions of this disaster caused by humans, by means of continuous movement between the surface of artificial lunar landscapes and the Earth entrails. The artist brings out a surprisingly paradoxical beauty through composition and materialism that derives from her classic painting knowledge.

  • Tania Mouraud Né En 1942 Figure Tutélaire De L'art Contemporain Ayant Influencé Toute Une Génération De Plasticiens
    Tania Mouraud Né en 1942 Figure tutélaire de l’art contemporain ayant influencé toute une génération de plasticiens, Tania Mouraud est une artiste éthique « J’ai conscience de pourquoi je me bats, l’artiste a quand même une responsabilité dans la société car il a le temps de penser. J’ai choisi de parler des choses qui m’importent au plus profond ». Artiste refusant tout rattachement à un courant ou à un dogme, Tania Mouraud n’a cessé de faire évoluer son œuvre depuis la fin des années 1960, explorant alternativement toutes sortes de disciplines — peinture, installation, photographie, performance, vidéo, son — autour d'un principe constant : interroger les rapports entre l’art et les liens sociaux. Elle propose ainsi de rajouter dans les habitations standardisées une chambre de méditation (1968). Elle affiche dans l’espace public sur les panneaux 4 x 3 m son désaccord avec une société glorifiant l’avoir au dépend de l’humain (1977). Elle réfléchit aux rapports esthétiques entre l’art et la guerre, et se penche avec l’aide de l’écriture sur les limites de la perception, en créant des « mots de forme »* (1989). À partir de 1998, elle se sert de la photographie, de la vidéo et du son en lien étroit avec la peinture pour questionner différents aspects de l’histoire et du vivant. « Par mon travail, je montre que la philosophie et l’art devraient et pourraient fusionner pour nous faire progresser sur le chemin de la connaissance. » Tania Mouraud poursuit ses investigations sur la perception en concentrant ses recherches sur la linguistique et la phénoménologie de la perception – notamment sur les notions d’immédiat et de différé.

    THE JEAN-NOËL HERLIN ARCHIVE PROJECT Jean-Noël Herlin New York City 2005 Table of Contents Introduction i Individual artists and performers, collaborators, and groups 1 Individual artists and performers, collaborators, and groups. Selections A-D 77 Group events and clippings by title 109 Group events without title / Organizations 129 Periodicals 149 Introduction In the context of my activity as an antiquarian bookseller I began in 1973 to acquire exhibition invitations/announcements and poster/mailers on painting, sculpture, drawing and prints, performance, and video. I was motivated by the quasi-neglect in which these ephemeral primary sources in art history were held by American commercial channels, and the project to create a database towards the bibliographic recording of largely ignored material. Documentary value and thinness were my only criteria of inclusion. Sources of material were random. Material was acquired as funds could be diverted from my bookshop. With the rapid increase in number and diversity of sources, my initial concept evolved from a documentary to a study archive project on international visual and performing arts, reflecting the appearance of new media and art making/producing practices, globalization, the blurring of lines between high and low, and the challenges to originality and quality as authoritative criteria of classification and appreciation. In addition to painting, sculpture, drawing and prints, performance and video, the Jean-Noël Herlin Archive Project includes material on architecture, design, caricature, comics, animation, mail art, music, dance, theater, photography, film, textiles and the arts of fire. It also contains material on galleries, collectors, museums, foundations, alternative spaces, and clubs.
