1000 Plateaux

Centre international d'art et du paysage, Ile de Vassiviere

Claude Leveque. Curated by Chiara Parisi. The exhibition intervenes as a concrete and critical action on reality. Artist's boldly sacrilegious work deals a powerful blow to Aldo Rossi's landscape and building. His action concerns the interior and exterior of the Art Center viewed as locations of similar semantic value. Leveque touches on the key point as well as the main characteristic of the institution where he intervenes: the close connection between architecture and landscape.


comunicato stampa

Claude Leveque

curated by Chiara Parisi

Following Laura Erber’s exhibition Open contour, director Chiara Parisi has invited artist Claude Lévêque to occupy and interpret the polymorphic spaces of the International Center.
Born in 1953, Claude Lévêque is one of the best-known French artists on the international circuit. His early autobiographical and narrative work has gradually moved towards creating radical installations offered to the visitor’s sensitive experience.
The exhibition 1000 PLATEAUX designed for Vassivière Island, intervenes as a concrete and critical action on reality, and in this sense is a continuation of the activity and reflection that has been developed by the International Center. Claude Lévêque’s boldly sacrilegious work deals a powerful blow to Aldo Rossi’s landscape and building. The artist’s action concerns the interior and exterior of the Art Center viewed as locations of similar semantic value.
Claude Lévêque touches on the key point as well as the main characteristic of the institution where he intervenes: the close connection between architecture and landscape which has been the reason and obsession of the Art Center ever since it was founded. He operates in a sharp and ironic - but always powerfully poetic - fashion, a painful poetry that shakes the spectator by plunging him into a peculiar emotional and psychological situation.
A clever direction, with Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari and their Mille Plateaux reappearing at each and every step in the objects that one comes upon in the Art Center, crossing the nave to the small theater and continuing all the way to the tower, which turns imperiously towards the sky.
On Vassivière Island Claude Lévêque continues to expose a deeply paradoxical reality. Upsetting space, imposing his own filter and optic distortion, the artist surprisingly renews the elements that make up the landscape and architecture by totally transforming an art center and stimulating – of this we are sure – new and different reactions.
