Summary:
La genèse de cette exposition remonte à une invitation lancée il y a deux ans à Raymond Gervais et à Jocelyn Robert, deux artistes aux affinités parfois apparentes, leur proposant de collaborer à une oeuvre qui ferait l'objet d'une exposition à la Galerie: une réflexion sur le son et le silence. Quelques temps plus tard Christof Migone, artiste qui travaille lui aussi le son, se joignait au projet proposant des oeuvres axées sur la répétition. Le temps passa, et chacun élobora des oeuvres d'envergure. Mon propos de commissaire aussi se transforma, s'éloignant de la question du son, déjà l'objet de nombreuses manifestations ici et ailleurs, pour se fixer sur la notion de coupe, de coupure et d'interruption dans l'oeuvre et dans sa conception.

Demand's idea for the exhibition is to explore the way we all rely on pre-existing models, and how artists have always referred to existing imagery to make their own. Questioning the boundaries between originality, conceptual inventiveness and the culture of the copy, the project focuses on theft, authorship, annexation and the creative potential of such pursuits.

Summary:
Edited and published by the Dutch artist Jacqueline de Jong between 1962 and 1967, ''The Situationist Times'' was an exuberant, multilingual, transdisciplinary magazine that became one of the most exciting and playful publications of the 1960s. Throughout its six diverse issues, the magazine challenged the notion of what it meant to be a situationist. Contributors included Aldo Van Eyck, Asger Jorn, Max Bucaille, Pierre Alechinsky and Boris Vian; themes included ''situlogical'' patterns, labyrinths and topology. ''These Are Situationist Times!'' provides a history of the magazine, also probing its contemporary relevance and presenting the material de Jong assembled in the early 1970s for a never-realized seventh issue devoted to pinball.

La collection d'œuvres d'artistes en lien avec l'architecture et de projets d'architectes du Frac Centre-Val de Loire, comme un récit des origines : une relecture des fondements sur lesquels se construit l'expérimentation architecturale depuis le début des années 1950. Avec Arkhè, l'architecture est définie à l'aune des mythes fondateurs : le Jardin d'Éden, la Hutte, le Monument, le Feu, le Tissage et l'Antre maternel. Les mouvements d'architecture radicale et expérimentale, depuis les années 1960 à nos jours, apparaissent comme l'ultime tentative de faire que toute pensée de l'architecture soit un processus pour reconsidérer la discipline, non plus comme l'art de bâtir le futur, mais celui de réécrire l'histoire de la discipline depuis ses origines.
