| SAVE THE DATE OPENING OF MFC-MICHÈLE DIDIER IN PARIS ON SEPTEMBER 10, 2011 mfc-michèle didier focuses since 1987 on the production and on the publication of original works by contemporary artists. Playing the part of an intermediary between the artist and production’s professionals (printing, film industry, etc.), and with the continuing effort to keep intact the original project that the artists trust them, mfc-michèle didier produces artist books, installations, films and videos, thereby providing a genuine and multiplied work. mfc-michèle didier is opening in September a store in Paris, a city where the actors of the art world (institutions and collectors) are particularly sensitive to the discipline of the artist's book. Located at 66 rue Notre-Dame de Nazareth in le Haut-Marais, it will offer the chance to present the publisher’s productions but it will also be a place of reflection on this specific art form. At the same time, it will give the opportunity to show the important role of ephemeras and published & multiplied works in contemporary art. The grand opening will be held on September 10, 2011, with Claude Closky. There will be an exclusive preview of Inside a triangle, an artist's book containing a set of photographs taken around the world - Brazil, Russia, Australia, Iran, etc. – of roads and paths that seem to extend to infinity. Each view is framed very precisely. A road, starting from our feet, occupies exactly the whole bottom edge of the image, while the horizon where it moves towards is placed exactly on the upper edge of the image. So far, mfc-michèle didier has worked with Dennis Adams, Carl Andre, Robert Barry, Samuel Bianchini, AA Bronson, Stanley Brouwn, Philippe Cazal, Claude Closky, Hannah Collins, David Cunningham, Charles de Meaux, Braco Dimitrijevic, Peter Downsbrough, Paul-Armand Gette, Liam Gillick, Joseph Grigely, Pierre Huyghe, On Kawara, Christian Marclay, Allan McCollum, John Miller, Jonathan Monk, Robert Morris, Antonio Muntadas, Philippe Parreno, Michelangelo Pistoletto, Hermann Pitz, Allen Ruppersberg, Joe Scanlan, Jim Shaw, Josh Smith, Lawrence Weiner, Christopher Wool… Please find below the schedule of the upcoming exhibitions and fair participations: Inside a Triangle – Claude Closky From Saturday September 10, 2011 to Friday October 7, 2011 included Opening: Saturday September 10, 2011 from 2 pm to 8 pm Ephemera – Christian Marclay From Saturday October 8, 2011 to Saturday October 15, 2011 included Opening: Saturday October 8, 2011 from 2 pm to 8 pm Mes dessins secrets, Mon guide du tricot, Ma collection de champignons bons et champignons mortels – Annette Messager 1973 - 1974 – Lynda Benglis / Robert Morris From Thursday October 20, 2011 to Saturday November 19, 2011 included Opening: Thursday October 20, 2011 from 6 pm to 10 pm Regard sur nos productionsFrom Saturday November 26, 2011 to Saturday December 24, 2011 included Opening: Saturday November 26, 2011 from 2 pm to 8 pm FIAC, from October 20 to 23, 2011 in Paris Editions / Artist’s books, from November 3 to 6, 2011 in New York | ||
