R for... Rustine (Patch)

Thursday 11 February at 12.30pm

On the principle of an ABC....  : In the form of an open dialogue with the public, this programme of gatherings launched in 2006 explored the museum's collections and the vocabulary of contemporary art.

 R for Rustine (Patch)…  a discussion of collage, camouflage, improvisation, salvage, the ephemeral, the reversible... as many active notions, in other words, as there are contemporary works of art. Lighthearted, yet serious, this common theme enabled us consider Elégie pour Art Pepper, one of three works by Pierre Buraglio that feature in the museum's collection.
