Figuration narrative

Résumé du livre

Narrative Figuration grew out of the initiative of art critic Gérald Gassiot-Talabot and artists Bernard Rancillac and Hervé Télémaque who worked together in July 1964 to set up the exhibition "Mythologies quotidiennes" at the Paris Museum of Modern Art. At a time when Pop Art was triumphing at the Venice Biennale, "Mythologies quotidiennes" brought 34 artists (Arroyo, Klasen, Fromanger, etc.) who, like their American counterparts, put contemporary society and its images at the core of their work.
