A curation by Rose Boutboul, Independent Curator at - This selection orchestrates an encounter between the leading figures of 20th-century art and the contemporary aesthetic of détournement. The works explore the enduring power of icons, creating a dialogue between the faces of Picasso, Warhol, and Basquiat and timeless symbols of consumerism, such as the banana or the Campbell's soup can. By playing on the immediate recognition of these idols, the curation reveals how these images have become ingrained in our collective memory, transforming into the new totems of a modern mythology.
The materiality of the collection underscores this link between heritage and modernity through a layering of varied textures. Acrylic, oil on canvas, and cement lend a sculptural depth to the portraits, while collage, screen printing, and oil pastel evoke the urgency of the Pop Art gesture. The selection is further enriched by hybrid techniques on synthetic panels and digital work on Plexiglas, offering saturated finishes that contrast with the raw appearance of the sculptures. This diversity of media celebrates the icon in all its forms, from the relief of the material to the precision of the pixel.
