STIGMATA.ACTIONS & PERFORMANCES 1976- 2013
MAXXI, Museo nazionale delle arti des XXI secolo, Rome, Italy
Du 16 octobre 2013 au 16 février 2014 Commissaire: Germano Celant The exhibition is a voyage into the memory of this Flemish artist through drawings, photographs, study models – which Fabre refers to as “thinking models” – and filmic documentations of his performances, from the second half of the 1970s to the present. Visitors are greeted by a labyrinth of tables introducing the artist’s philosophies. This tool serves to understand his ideas, his memories, his art, profoundly inspired by the traditions of Flemish painting and focused on the study and use of the body.(…)

The preeminent exhibition of new international art in the United States brings together 35 artists from 19 countries, including a series of large-scale new commissions—presenting a broad spectrum of artworks and attitudes.
Carnegie International 2013 presentsnew voices rooted in history, a sense of place, and play. The exhibition isguided by a shared passion for the individual and the exceptional; for art that celebrates dissonance and beauty; and for artworks that stay in touch with the everyday.

AFTER THE DREAM
CARREE SAINT-ANNE, ESPACE D'ART CONTEMPORAIN, MONTPELLIER
From october 04st to November 17th 2013 Reprenant le projet de la Maison Rouge et de la Sucrière, Chiharu Shiota nous propose, pour le Carré Sainte-Anne de Montpellier « After the dream 2013 » : une réalisation spécifique à l’architecture du lieu et à son identité, en utilisant le plafond et les piliers comme structures d’environnement immersif. Cinq très longues robes blanches pendues au plafond, entre les piliers, dans tout l’espace. Un fil noir emprisonne les robes dans un tissage complexe évoquant des nids de chenilles ou plus encore des toiles d’araignées.(…)

MASCULIN / MASCULIN. L’HOMME NU DANS L’ART DE 1800 À NOS JOURS.(GROUP SHOW)
Musée d'Orsay, Paris, France
From Tuesday 24th September to Thursday 2nd January 2014 Alors que le nu féminin s’expose aussi régulièrement que naturellement, le corps masculin n’a pas eu la même faveur. Qu’aucune exposition ne se soit donné pour objet de remettre en perspective la représentation de l’homme nu sur une longue période de l’histoire avant le Leopold Museum de Vienne à l’automne 2012 est plus que significatif. Pourtant, la nudité masculine était pendant longtemps au fondement de la formation académique du XVIIe au XIXe siècles et constitue une ligne de force de la création en Occident. (…)

TRACE OF MEMORY
The Mattress Factory Art Museum, Pittsburgh, USA
From September 12th 2013 to May 31st 2014 The site-specific installation of new works by Shiota will fill the eight rooms in the building at 516 Sampsonia Way—a 19th-century row home with a storied past—which is suited to the artist’s work.

We each may take our small comforts from Wonder Bread, roti, pita, tortillas, challah, injera, or bánh….(…)
