"This catalogue to accompany the museum exhibition traces the emergence of the artistic impulses to use the earth as material, land as medium, and to locate works in remote sites, beyond familiar art contexts. Significantly, "Ends of the Earth" challenges many myths about Land art--that it was primarily a North American phenomenon, that it was foremost a sculptural practice, and that it exceeds the confines of the art system. Featuring over 100 artists hailing from countries including Great Britain, Germany, Iceland, Israel, Japan, the Netherlands, and the United States, the exhibition constitutes the most comprehensive survey of Land art to date"-- "The fascinating and generously illustrated catalogue documents the history of Land art from its emergence during the early 1960s through 1974. A companion volume to the first large-scale exhibition on Land art, this book traces the emergence of the artistic impulses to use the earth as material, land as medium, and to locate works in remote sites, beyond familiar art contexts. Ends of the Earth challenges many myths about Land art-that it was primarily a North American phenomenon, that it was foremost a sculptural practice, and that it exceeds the confines of the art system. Essays by leading young scholars will offer new insights into Land art's emergence, including its intrinsic connection to media, its dreams of an elsewhere, the attraction of wastelands, and the problems inherent in a historical evaluation of site-specific or ephemeral art. The book will also include a series of reflections from the major curators, critics, and dealers who helped to make Land art both as work and discourse in the 1960s and 1970s"--

L’exposition Acrobates est réalisée par les musées municipaux de Châlons-en-Champagne en partenariat avec le Centre national des arts du cirque (Cnac) et en co-commissariat avec Pascal Jacob, historien du cirque et directeur artistique du cirque Phénix et du Festival Mondial du Cirque de Demain. À travers les collections des musées municipaux et l’incroyable collection privée Jacob-William, le thème de l’acrobate se décline sous toutes ses formes. Acrobates met en lumière une sélection d’œuvres de typologies, époques et origines différentes, qui mettent toutes à l’honneur le geste acrobatique. Depuis les sculptures étrusques du ve siècle avant notre ère jusqu’aux œuvres de Picasso, Matisse ou Derain, le thème de l’acrobate est une inépuisable source d’inspiration. Ce catalogue présente également des prêts de grands musées nationaux et internationaux, grâce à la participation de nombreuses institutions : Musée du Quai Branly-Jacques Chirac (Paris), MUCEM (Marseille), Musées Royaux d’Art et d’Histoire de Bruxelles, Nouveau Musée National de Monaco, Musée National des Arts Asiatiques – Guimet (Paris), Musée Picasso-Paris, Musée du Louvre (Paris), Musée des arts et métiers – Cnam (Paris), Musée Rodin (Paris), Bibliothèque municipale d’Angers, Musée Rolin d’Autun, ainsi que la collection privée « Circus Art Museum J.Y. et G. Borg ».
