Les statues meurent aussi
Monnaie de Paris 11, Quai de Conti – 75006 Paris
9 septembre au 2 octobre 2010
An exhibition around this historical movie with many of the pieces showed in this 30 minutes movie. This movie is a virulent critic on colonialism and how authentic African art became serial and lost his soul, how the statues and masks are dying in Museums and become Art ... The Art is lost, the ancestors ceremonies are lost... The movie was censored between 1953 and 1963
"À travers l'art africain et plus spécialement les statues et les masques, Alain Resnais et Chris Marker filment une virulente diatribe contre les insoupçonnables méfaits du colonialisme des créations authentiques, liées à la spécificité de la culture panthéiste et magique de ces régions pour la remplacer, petit à petit, par une activité artistique commerciale mercantile et de série... Les statues meurent aussi fut interdit par la censure de 1953 à 1963."
Alain Resnais and Chris Marker did this movie in 1953
This exhibition shows +/- 150 objects coming from famous old time dealers and
collectors Tristan Tzara or René Rasmussen, or Jacob
Epstein, Helena Rubinstein, and coming from famous museums like Barbier-Mueller,
Dapper museum, musée de l’Homme and the British
Museum, and big reprints from the movie.
A catalogue will be sold during the exhibition.
