Dana Schutz, le monde visible

This exhibition is the first of its kind dedicated to the American artist Dana Schutz in France, and features some forty paintings, twenty drawings and prints, and 6 sculptures, several of which have never before been shown to the public. A virtuoso of colour, Dana Schutz has developed over the years a powerful narrative and a sense of dramatic tension that is revealed in her complex compositions, often in very large formats. The exhibition explores the themes that run through her work: the gritty, tense sensations of the intimate, the artist at work, the construction of the self and society, and the tension between the individual and the group in large-scale crowd scenes.
