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.

A project combining urban planning, urban art, visual arts, literature and graphic design.

Tuesday, September 12
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.

ADENA’s nature educators and the Archaeological Department of the Communauté d’Agglomération Hérault Méditerranée invite you to step back in time to Antiquity! This 3 km, level trail tells the story of man’s life, his relationship with nature and this very special pond! From the 2nd century B.C. ovens at Saint Michel du Bagnas, discover the clues that history has planted around Bagnas.
Between art, nature and archaeology, step back in time on a guided walk to discover the life of mankind on this territory and their relationship with nature and the Etang du Bagnas.
Throughout your outing, Compagnie Virgule dancers will join you with mini contemporary dance solos from their show “Royaume(s)”!
With the presence of Céline Gomez, head of the archaeology department of the Communauté d’Agglomération Hérault Méditerranée.

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of Bagnas National Nature Reserve, the associations Scopie and ADENA present TOPOSCOPIE, a series of events combining art and nature. TOPOSCOPIE is an invitation to think together, to observe, live and feel the Mediterranean landscape and how it is changing by exploring ADENA’s four key subject areas: water, the fauna, the flora, and mankind and landscape.
