The ten fingers of a hand would probably not be enough to point out everything Stephan Eicher is interested in, in music, in cinema, from acoustic concerts to a show with automatons or a brass band, from rock to techno-pop, from film music to literary concerts. Will he ever be able to have lunch in peace? Born in Münchenbuchsee, Switzerland, on August 17, Stephan Eicher first performed in Germany with the group Grauzone and had his first success in France with Combien de temps, the title track of his fourth studio album Silence – which was in fact quite a smash hit. Then he met the novelist Philippe Djian, who wrote the French lyrics for Stephan Eicher’s 1989 album My Place. One of them was the hit Déjeuner en paix. From then on, the success of the album was unwavering, especially on stage, where Stephan Eicher gave real shows that were reinvented a thousand times. In all, there were sixteen albums in his forty-year career, the last of which, Homeless Songs, was a public and commercial success. This time, on stage, there will be a quintet of musicians, newness and discovery, always. At the end of 2021, a new album is planned. The opportunity for Stephan to go back on the road and offer a new show.

Damien Hirst Exposition, Cherry Blossoms
En savoir +ParticipateDate : From 6 July 2021 to 2 January 2022
Lieu : Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain, 261 Boulevard Raspail, 75014 ParisPrice : Tarif plein 11€
La Fondation Cartier pour l’art contemporain est heureuse de dévoiler Cerisiers en Fleurs, l’exceptionnelle nouvelle série de tableaux de Damien Hirst.
Une célébration de la couleur au milieu du chaos
Cerisiers en Fleurs est la première exposition institutionnelle de Damien Hirst en France. La série des Cerisiers en Fleurs [Cherry Blossoms] réinterprète avec une ironie joyeuse le sujet traditionnel et populaire de la représentation florale. Sur la toile, Damien Hirst mêle touches épaisses et projections de peinture faisant référence tant à l’impressionnisme et au pointillisme qu’à l’action painting. Les toiles monumentales, entièrement recouvertes par les couleurs vives et saturées, enveloppent le spectateur dans un vaste paysage végétal oscillant entre figuration et abstraction. Les Cerisiers en Fleurs sont à la fois un détournement et un hommage aux grands mouvements artistiques de la fin du XIXème et du XXème siècle. Ils s’inscrivent dans les réflexions picturales que Damien Hirst mène depuis toujours. Dans son atelier londonien, l’artiste dit « se plonger dans les toiles et les bombarder de peinture de bout en bout », travaillant plusieurs tableaux en même temps et revenant sans cesse sur certains qu’il garde auprès de lui de longs mois après leur achèvement. Après y avoir consacré trois années entières, c’est en novembre 2020 que Damien Hirst achève la série des Cerisiers en Fleurs : « La pandémie m’a permis de vivre avec mes peintures et de prendre le temps de les contempler, jusqu’à ce que je sois certain qu’elles étaient toutes terminées ». La série complète comprend 107 toiles (toutes reproduites dans le catalogue de l’exposition) réparties en panneaux simples, diptyques, triptyques, quadriptyques et même un hexaptyque, toutes de très grand format. L’exposition, qui répond à une invitation d’Hervé Chandès à Damien Hirst lors d’une rencontre à Londres en 2019, présente 30 tableaux qu’ils ont choisis ensemble. Envahissant l’espace de Jean Nouvel, les toiles vibrantes immergent le spectateur dans la peinture. -

Admired as much as he was controversial, Napoleon Bonaparte was a highly complex character whose life oscillated between heroism and tragedy, victory and defeat, modern advances and regressive measures. To celebrate the 200th anniversary of his death, La Villette, La RMN – Grand Palais and RERE / Adonis are offering a spectacular exhibition that provides a fair and uncompromising portrait of a fascinating figure who shaped the France of today. After all, to know Napoleon is to understand the world in which we live. From his rise to the decline of the imperial adventure, the exhibition retraces this crucial period in nine sections, from key moments in French history to the intimate and romantic life of the emperor. The exceptional collaboration of the Louvre, the châteaux of Versailles, Fontainebleau and Malmaison, the Musée de l’Armée, the Mobilier National and the Fondation Napoléon has brought together more than 150 original pieces, assembled here for the first time. Masterpieces created during the Empire, exceptional objects that belonged to Napoleon and contemporary creations follow one another along a chronological and educational path. Vast reconstructions and numerous digital devices offer visitors a real immersion in the heart of these decisive moments in French history. A health pass is not required for this exhibition.
