Exhibition
After the FRAC Auvergne (spring 2014 and the FRAC
Alsace 2014-2015), the FRAC PROVENCE-ALPES-CÔTE D’AZUR
subsequently opens its doors for the third chapter of the solo
exhibit entitled Cinerama, dedicated to Marc Bauer.
Z1, 1936 (0,176kB memory),
Drawing grey pencil on paper,
213cm x 303cm, 2013
Marc Bauer’s work is built upon an enlarged practice around
drawing in varied formats and mediums ranging from traditional
paper to a projection of images and mural drawings.
“Marc Bauer’s work is based on an inquest into the manner
History has been written while imbedded in the story of those writing
it or when partially falsified by way of contaminating, invented
elements.. History has always been treated in major works as an
incomplete, resembling a matrix of narration, like a poetic field
wherein events become objects of re-appropriation, submitted to
a kind of faltering beginnings, derived from a partially damaged
archeology, comprised of bits and pieces assembled with the glue of
personal memories. This exhibit, entitled Cinerama, broadens the
artist’s research, staging them from a viewpoint of filmic territory,
including the film The Architect, based on F.W. Murnaus’s film
Nosferatu, whose horrific symphony dated 1922 is a culmination
[….]” (J.C. Vergne)
From filmic image to intimate souvenir, Marc Bauer’s work
is thus imbued with narrations taking form there where layers of
the past combine with that of the imaginary. With a great economy
of means, the artist unravels his universe from a series of collective,
familial or autobiographical stories, he unveils as freeze frames of
a same sequence. Bearers of a language we can easily appropriate,
the material sketches itself out for the eye as a screen subject to
new projections. In his graphic work, Bauer transgresses notably
technical conventions and, through qn qngle of dilution the
disappearance of motifs. This freedom he often accords himself
allows his drawing to brush up against pictorial dimensions.
Working on diverse types of mediums and formats, exploiting
both assembling and projection, he likewise uses other techniques
including his allegorical tapestry Melancholia, produced in
Aubusson. 1
Marc Bauer fills both floors during the FRAC’s exhibition
as well as the multimedia floor. His show will be punctuated with
encounters held at the FRAC notably in the documentation center
for the presentation of his publication including the Architect (coedition: FRAC Auvergne, FRAC Alsace, FRAC Provenc-Alpes-Côte
d’Azur, 2014) and the launching of his magazine MUET 2 produced
in the framework of Marc Bauer’s invitation at the School of art and
design Marseille-Méditerranée (ESADMM).
