Papiers mâchés

La Fenêtre - le MIAM

Exposition, All public, Montpellier Méditerranée Métropole, Sète Agglopôle Méditerranée

La Fenêtre et le MIAM élaborent deux expositions et une édition autour des papiers d’agrumes, éphémera modernes qui voyagent à travers l’Europe et le monde, et véhiculent les icônes et symboles surannés d’une industrie agroalimentaire globalisée.

Chargés de valeurs mercantiles, émotionnelles ou artistiques, des images imprimées traversent plus ou moins discrètement nos vies de consommateurs en les rendant plus belles. Fuyant leur destin éphémère, certaines deviennent objets de collection. Parmi eux, les papiers de soie qui entourent les agrumes et dont le Miam possède plusieurs milliers de spécimens, suite à des donations d’importantes collections institutionnelles et privées. Souvent anonymes, ces lettrages, ces signes et ces images qui voyagent et passent des frontières, au-delà de leur esthétique chatoyante, véhiculent à travers l’Europe et le monde, l’image d’une industrie agroalimentaire globalisée dont nous sommes héritiers, et nourrissent notre imaginaire.

L’exposition Superbemarché nous invite à déambuler dans l’impressionnante collection de papiers d’agrumes du MIAM, et nous guide à travers cette imagerie populaire pour nous raconter une mythologie moderne de l’orange, de son origine biologique et mythique à sa mise en commerce mondialisée, en passant par son agriculture, son transport et sa consommation.

Cette collection y est mise en écho avec des œuvres d’art, des documents et d’autres collections d’ephemera liés au commerce, pour interroger plus largement ces objets d’Arts Modestes qui à la frontière entre œuvre et document tentent de rendre notre quotidien de consommateur mondialisé plus beau.

La route de l’eau

Bouillon Cube

Atelier, Music / Concert, Projection, Meet, Residence, All public, Grand Pic Saint-Loup

La route de l’eau est un événement culturel, écologique, scientifique et participatif autour de l’eau en Pic Saint-Loup porté par Bouillon cube. Il s’appuie sur des lieux emblématiques du territoire, porteurs de la mémoire de l’eau, historique comme contemporaine, pour créer des lieux de diffusion, de rencontres et d’expérimentations, en lien avec les acteurs et actrices (culturels, sociaux…) du territoire.

Au cours de l’année, Bouillon Cube multiplie les résidences de recherche et de création, avec des artistes, des chercheurs et des compagnies, en proposant des ateliers ouverts à participation. L’association collabore notamment avec la Cie Yann Lheureux, Jeanne Bourrat, Piers Faccini, PY Production, Dakipaya Danza et Radio Fenestrou pour un projet mêlant danse, rencontres, projections, performances, arts visuels, etc.

Entre le 26 septembre et la 5 octobre, Bouillon Cube proposera plusieurs temps forts autour de la présence et de la mémoire de l’eau en Pic Saint-Loup.

Mémoires vives

Entre soi et les eaux - Nouveau Souffle - Les pulsations de nos territoires

SPL Le Grau-du-Roi Développement

Atelier, Déambulation, Exposition, Residence, All public, Ville du Grau-du-roi

La SPL Le Grau-du-Roi Développement accueille 3 artistes pendant 8 semaines de résidence de mars à octobre. Les 3 lauréates vont mener des travaux de recherche et création qui mêlent art visuel, sculpture, installation, écriture, poésie et graphisme. Les artistes vont déployer leurs projets de territoire avec les habitantes et les habitants à travers des temps de rencontres, d’arpentages et d’ateliers collectifs dans le cadre de la reconversion du SANA, ancien sanatorium du Grau-du-Roi, en tiers-lieu.

Un temps fort de restitution publique de leurs travaux sera organisé le 5 octobre lors de L’événement 25 – Les chemins du vivant.

Paysagiste et écrivaine, Delphine Tourte invite à une exploration sensible du territoire à travers l’arpentage et l’écriture. Lors de ses ateliers, les participants et participantes découvriront le paysage de l’Espiguette, ses dynamiques naturelles et son évolution, avant de coucher leurs impressions sur papier à l’aide de calligraphie et d’encres naturelles.

Le projet « Nouveau Souffle » d’Elodie Cabos, une cabane perchée imaginée comme un refuge et un poste d’observation du paysage. Construite à partir d’éléments issus du territoire, cette œuvre propose une réinterprétation contemporaine des relations entre nature et habitat. L’atelier “Nouveau Souffle” invite à explorer la relation entre nature et habitat. Après une balade sensorielle, participez à la création d’une cabane perchée en tissant ou en construisant une peau paysagée à partir de matériaux récoltés.

Artiste plasticienne, Myrtille Bouvret interroge la relation entre le corps et l’environnement à travers des sculptures et des performances in situ. Son approche mêle matières naturelles et formes inspirées des éléments pour une expérience immersive et corporelle du paysage. L’atelier invite à récolter ensemble au parc du phare de l’Espiguette, avec parcimonie, des végétaux et minéraux pour en faire des pigments, des eaux colorées. Par le moyen de la décoction, de la macération, de l’infusion ou du broyage au pilon, créez un nuancier de ce territoire, révélateur de souvenirs en couleurs.

Atlas culturel et relationnel de la rivière Mosson

Exploration sensible de la Mosson

Bipolar

Atelier, Déambulation, All public, Grand Pic Saint-Loup, Montpellier Méditerranée Métropole, Vallée de l'Hérault

Entre garrigue et méditerranée, en passant par des espaces à forte pression urbaine, cette rivière à l’image et à la qualité fortement dégradées, constitue toutefois la colonne vertébrale d’une présence vivante sur la périphérie ouest de la métropole, un espace de contact riche entre les humain·es et leurs milieux de vie.

C’est à cela que s’intéresse Bipolar aujourd’hui : cartographier avec l’artiste Julien Rodriguez, les attachements, les usages, les relations que les habitants et les habitantes entretiennent avec la Mosson.

Pour mener cette enquête fouillée sur tout le linéaire du cours d’eau, Bipolar multiplie les différentes modalités de rencontres avec les habitants : des balades exploratoires le long de la rivière, des ateliers de cartographie sensible dans l’espace public, des discussions en tête à tête…

De mars à mai, Bipolar propose 9 balades sensibles, à différents endroits du cours d’eau, pour explorer la rivière Mosson sous un autre angle : celui des émotions, des sensations et de ce qui nous lie à elle.

Marchez au plus près d’elle, en essayant de ressentir, porter attention, et en écoutant vos histoires de vie avec elle.

Chaque marche sera suivie d’un temps d’atelier et de partage qui permettra de le positionner ensemble sur une grande carte ; une carte sensible, affective de la Mosson.

Entre le 26 septembre et le 5 octobre 2025, Bipolar présentera une ou plusieurs cartes relationnelles de la Mosson à l’occasion d’une journée publique, au plus près des berges, dans le cadre de L’événement 25 – Les chemins du vivant porté par M28 – Terres de culture.

Ce projet est soutenu par l’Office Français de la Biodiversité et mené en partenariat avec l’EPTB Lez Mosson Etangs Palavasiens et les communes riveraines.

Launch of the operation with a lecture by Arzhel Prioul and Mathieu Tremblin at 6:30pm at ENSAM (Anphi 1).
At the same time, white cards will be sent to around fifty artists, and the following day two groups of ENSAM students from Sète and Montpellier will scout the billboards.
In October, once the completed boxes had been returned, the students reproduced them to scale.
Wednesday, November 22 at 9 a.m.
All the posters collaged will be listed and located on an online digital map, and then published in the form of a publication featuring an account of the poster collage experience.
→ more information

The title of the project is the number of the article in the Environmental Code that guarantees freedom of expression in the public space, by requiring the provision of public display panels.
Two artists, Arzhel Prioul and Mathieu Tremblin, propose a protocol for taking over these free billboards by sending postcards in the form of carte blanche to other artists. After identifying the appropriate panels and contexts for the works, the completed cards are then reproduced to scale and displayed. The public space is altered, but it’s a very ephemeral art form, since anyone can cover these panels freely.

Orange wrappers – an object of graphic design research.

Association de l’art modeste pour le Miam (Musée International des Arts Modestes) et la Fenêtre

Exposition, Residence, All public, Montpellier Méditerranée Métropole, Sète Agglopôle Méditerranée

Research and creation residency
in Sète and Montpellier, aimed at graphic designers, researchers in language and communication sciences, theorists, historians and curators specializing in the fields of graphic design, visual culture and popular culture, around several collections of citrus fruit wrapping paper.
The prize-winner will develop his/her approach with a view to publication, and will support specific mediation and promotion initiatives.

The residency project
Orange wrappers, an object for research in graphic design and popular culture.
Orange wrappers were part of the popular cultural heritage of the 20th century. They were produced into the 1980s, when the use of fungicides and wax caused them to fall into disuse.
In 2022, Pascal Casson donated his collection of nearly 20,000 orange wrappers to MIAM. In 2023, this collection was presented as part of the “Modestes et Appliqués” exhibition, co-produced by MIAM and La Fenêtre, who now intend to showcase this exceptional collection once again as part of a research and creative residency aimed at continuing and extending the conceptual approach initiated by Hervé di Rosa and MIAM, while at the same time contributing to the current dynamic development of graphic design research.

The dates
Application deadline: September 30, 2023
Jury: The jury will deliberate during the second half of October 2023. It will be made up of representatives from MIAM, La Fenêtre and invited experts. Following the jury, successful candidates will be notified immediately by telephone. Other candidates will be notified by e-mail.

La Lisière, a new cultural third place, is coming into being at Villeneuve-lès-Maguelone. A lagoon area at the heart of a fertile ecosystem which is threatened by the rarefaction of fresh water and the rising sea water level. How can we rethink our relationship with the land, living things, water? Meetings, discussions, shows – fun ways of sparking a playful, festive and creative reappropriation of land, water and living things. An event initiated by TSV, a professional training centre for the performing arts, RECréa, the CEN conservation agency, Atelline, Villeneuve-Les-Maguelone town council and local cultural actors.

Set off on a quest for recipes from those who cook under the watchful eye of a photographer to document this culinary odyssey. Tales compiled into one grand fictional narrative written by Rémi Chechetto and served up by actors and inhabitants of the Gély district in Montpellier and Ile de Thau in Sète. Amid steaming pans and the sounds of cutlery, the stories of individuals criss-cross, weaving one grand collective story.
