The Partenaires particulaires exhibition acts like a field of (sometimes bad) seeds, starting with a knot bringing together a dozen historic works by Supports/Surfaces. This code name for a short-lived but still highly topical avant-garde movement marked the history of the French art scene in the late 1960s and early 1970s through a return to abstract painting in a raw version.
The exhibition also features works by other artists, both historical and contemporary. From painting to moving images, sculpture and design, Foundation CAB brings together so many practices that manipulate the primary imaginations of precarious materials, from imprints to decomposed compositions, operations, moving and luminous abstractions, assemblages and recycling, etc. In this way, the stakes / the game lie in overcoming the blinkers, postures and boundaries that play on System D, the particle of matter.
