The exhibition, which will occupy all of the walls at the Centre culturel suisse, is mainly dedicated to two dimensional work. Paintings are mainly represented by artists of differenct generations but all deeply anchoured in researching today's creativity We have chosen 2 ways of presenting these works; wall painting, which is more traditional, and another more innovative form borrowed from advertising.

The exhibition, which will occupy
all of the walls at the Centre culturel
suisse, is mainly dedicated to two
dimensional work. Paintings are mainly
represented by artists of differenct
generations but all deeply anchoured
in researching today's creativity We
have chosen 2 ways of presenting
these works; wall painting, which is
more traditional, and another more
innovative form borrowed from advertising.
The latter enables us to continually
and partially modify the visual
environment of the room.
In addition,
other presentations in the exhibit are
video and sound equipment, objects, a
spatial reorganization of the entrance
hall and the presentation of different
topics such as technology, fashion,
architecture, design, art and society.

________
Michel Ritter, the new Director of the Centre
culturel suisse de Paris since September 2002,
is inaugurating his programme at the beginning
of 2003. After directing since 1990 the Centre d'art
contemporain Fri-art at Fribourg in Switzerland,
his desire for Paris is to follow up his research into
the permanent renewal of new artistic expressions
while still reworking the classical repertoire over
the contempory.
Our basic concept lies in our efforts to work
with the multi-and interdisciplinary, to try and
create ties, to mix the juxtapositions between
the different disciplines in order to develop a
rough sketch of how to present Art.
This is a necessary adjustment as artists by definition
break with established structures, standard
presentation forms, playing by the rules and mix
the technical and technological elements to fit
their conception of creativity. Art today cannot be
defined. By setting up the crossing of references
between the different disciplines, we are looking
to improve on how to express the sense and finality
of each one. At the same time, it is a question
of installing inside the actual space a sense of
temporality and atmospheres in constant movement,
non-static, so as to emphasise the notion
of continual transformation and the ephemeral.
Artists today are not looking to formulate their
work with a view to their permanence in time;
their desire is to answer the multiple visual and
acoustic demands that infiltrate our daily lives.
Their work is not planned in terms of permanence
but as a tentative answer as to the position of art
and its finality in the context of today.
The first event is not placed under a federating
banner but approaches the physical separation
of the halls of the Centre culturel suisse so that
each discipline can express itself freely within the
space. This confirms the initial basic concept which
is the juxtaposition and link between the different
disciplines. To achieve this, we stipulated that all
the visual or plastic work will be placed around
the walls with a view to liberating the floor-space
to receive all the other creative forms.
Hence the name, wall, floor, here there, which
expresses a diffused and 'non-regulated' presence
of different artistic expressions throughout
the Centre culturel suisse.
