On the occasion of the centenary of the birth of Simon Hantaï (1922-2008), the Louis Vuitton Foundation is organizing a retrospective exhibition, on three floors, of this French artist of Hungarian origin, who has lived in Paris since 1948. 120 works years 1957-2000 are presented, with a majority of unpublished large formats from the estate of the artist.
The artistic influences of Hantaï are represented by the works of Henri Matisse or Jackson Pollock, and Daniel Buren will make an installation in situ in homage to the artist.
To extend the visit, Anne Baldassari, curator of the exhibition, signs a magnificent catalog.

Pina Bausch back at Châtelet
Barbe-Bleue
is an emblematic work of the work of choreographer Pina Bausch (1940-2009), who transforms this opera by Bela Bartok on the transgression of secrecy into a drama on incommunicability.
In conflict with the Wuppertal orchestra, Pina Bausch (who founded the Tanztheater Wuppertal company) decided in the 1970s to use recordings as a soundtrack for her shows.
Thus, Bartok's music is constantly stopped, replayed, manipulated by the dancers, becoming a scenic element, with repetition as an element of his choreographic vocabulary.

Claiming the land
: a title in the form of an injunction for the new season at the Palais de Tokyo.
Based on the achievements of anthropology, etiology and ecofeminism, it calls upon the relationships between the body and the earth, the disappearance of certain species... Thinking of the world in a global way, the exhibition curated by Daria de Beauvais presents 14 artists who work differently with the elements: earth, water, fire, air, plants, minerals.
They develop new connections with the environment under the aegis of Rachel Carson, at the origin of the environmental movement: "The land is neither a natural reserve nor an agricultural resource, it is a web of relations between minerals, plants, animals and humans.

Extracts from women, Anne Kessler C. Raynaud de Lage
Anne Kessler, 488th member of the Comédie-Française, knows how to do everything: act (there are countless directors, from Jean-Luc Boutté to Arnaud Desplechin via Alain Françon, who have called on her…), or to stage shows like the notable
Trois hommes dans un salon
based on the interview with Ferré, Brassens or Brel.
This time, she embarks on a single-in-stage,
Ex-traits de femmes,
where she interprets all the heroines of Molière, Louison, Agnès, Armande, Henriette, Arsinoé, Célimène, Elvire, Madame Pernelle, Dorine... As s It was one and the same woman at different ages in her life.
Another string to her bow: Anne Kessler draws.
And the cartoon accompanies the game to say the unspeakable and make the ghosts appear.
