Art in Relation – Immersive Installations
Since 2006, artist Philippe Parreno has created light panels, similar to those that adorn the pediments of theaters and concert halls, which he programs to flash at varying intervals. The pediment signals the boundary between the spectacle and the world, between fiction and reality. This conference proposes to examine one of his first light panels, Marquee (2008), in the context of the artist's work. It will also be an opportunity to connect his work to a new approach to art, called "relational aesthetics", of which Philippe Parreno became a leading figure in the early 1990s. Alongside a group of young artists, Philippe Parreno put forward the idea that art is a form of direct social interaction. He and his comrades consider the object as a relational element and consequently consider the idea of exhibition as primordial.
