About this book

"Le sculpteur new-yorkais Joel Shapiro (né en-1941) est invité à présenter, pour la première fois, une exposition personnelle au Musée d'art moderne de Saint-Étienne Métropole. A travers ses oeuvres, aux formes géométriques simplifiées et aux couleurs pures, il tente d'éliminer le clivage essentiel pour un artiste moderne : la dualité entre représentation et abstraction. A ses sculptures monumentales répondent des objets archétypiques qui donnent à voir la maison comme un concept universel, dans une forme ruinée par l'Histoire et altérée par le temps. Ce catalogue, qui rassemble certaines de ses sculptures depuis 1970 ainsi que les oeuvres exposées, accompagne le lecteur pour franchir cette "ligne de démarcation". For the first time, New York-based sculptor Joel Shapiro (born in 1941) has been invited to present his own exhibition at the Musée d'art moderne de Saint-Étienne Métropole. Through his works, made with simple shapes and painted in primary colours, he is attempting to dissolve an essential opposition for al I modern artists: represen-tation versus abstraction. His monumental sculptures are complemented by archetypical objects, which represent the house as a universal concept, in a form ruined by history and altered by time. Alongside the works exposed at the Musée d'art moderne de Saint-Étienne Métropole, this catalogue features some of Shapiro's sculptures from 1970 onwards. These pages aim to accompany the reader and help him cross the "line of démarcation" that exists between representation and abstraction."--P. [4] of cover.
