Marie Havel

Recyclage / Surcyclage

from 20 June to 29 October 2020

Fondation Villa Datris, l'Isle-sur-la-Sorge
Our partners

For its 10th exhibition in 2020, the Villa Datris Foundation has chosen to explore recycling in all its forms in contemporary sculpture and to question our relationship to objects.

 

At a time when sustainable development has become an absolute priority, contemporary artists are taking up this fundamental issue with particular acuity. They also find in it a rich source of inspiration to recreate a new world.

Deliberately, by conviction or by choice, artists resort to waste as an artistic material in its own right, renouncing the acquisition of so-called "noble" materials to create or compose their works.

These scraps, waste, garbage, objects left behind and rejected by the flow of consumption find a job, a utility, an identity – a true social metaphor.

 

Marie Havel is one of the 89 international artists in this collective exhibition. 

 

 

Marie Havel (France) is recipient of the residency program "Daniel and Nina Carasso Foundation & Cité internationale des arts".
