Programme
Under the sky, Jérémy Griffaud
At the invitation of the Musée National Marc Chagall, artist Jérémy Griffaud (b. 1991) has created an immersive multimedia installation on the theme of biodiversity and the hybridisation of living things. Designed to echo the work of Chagall. Entitled Sous le ciel, the exhibition takes the form of a new experience of painting, between materiality and symbolic language, both enhanced by the contribution of digital technology.
Inspired by the painted cycle of the Biblical Message, a masterpiece of universal and spiritual significance and the heart of the museum's permanent collection, Jérémy Griffaud created a panoramic mapping covering the entire surface of the walls. Four paintings by Chagall particularly caught his eye, on the themes of the original Paradise and its loss (Paradise, Adam and Eve driven from Paradise), dreams (Jacob's Dream) and hospitality (Abraham and the Three Angels).
