IMPACT
As part of its ecological transition, to be launched in 2021, the eac. and its entire team have been made acutely aware of environmental issues. With this in mind, a strategy and action plan have been drawn up to rethink the Centre d'Art's methods in the light of sustainable development criteria.
The exhibition will reveal how certain artists encourage us to shift our point of view on the environment in order to change our impact on biodiversity, promote its restoration and enhance the value of ecosystems.
Dialogues : Ode Bertrand, Cécile Bart et la Collection Albers-Honegger
In this new cycle of rereading its permanent collection, the eac. has chosen to honor two major artists of the French abstract scene. Cécile Bart and Ode Bertrand are the tandem guests of this 2023 edition, in dialogue not only with each other, but also with a selection of works from the Albers-Honegger Donation.
Their works experiment with the notion of weave and mesh, playing with the viewer's eye and, by the same token, with the scale of their works, ranging from the infinitely small for one to more monumental works for the other. The question of rhythm also runs through their respective approaches.
