Inga Sempé is a French designer born in Paris. In the early 2000s, like Tom Dixon and the Bouroullec brothers, she joined the Cappellini "stable" and attracted the attention of the international press with an almost 2-metre-high pleated lamp. The process she has tamed and developed since 2002, notably for Luceplan and Moustache, has become her trademark.

Mission Recherche

Combining paintings, drawings, films, photographs and literary documents, the exhibition features works by the movement's emblematic artists (Salvador Dalí, René Magritte, Giorgio de Chirico, Max Ernst, Joan Miró), as well as by female Surrealists (including Leonora Carrington, Ithell Colquhoun and Dora Maar). Both chronological and thematic, the exhibition is punctuated by 14 chapters evoking the literary figures who inspired the movement (Lautréamont, Lewis Carroll, Sade...) and the poetic principles that structure its imagination (the artist-medium, the dream, the philosopher's stone, the forest...). At the heart of the exhibition is a central "drum" housing the original manuscript of the Manifesto, on exceptional loan from the Bibliothèque nationale de France. A multimedia projection accompanies the discovery of this unique document, illuminating its genesis and meaning.

With exhibition curators, Didier Ottinger, Directeur adjoint chargé de la programmation culturelle et conservateur général au Service des collections modernes, and Marie Sarré, attachée de conservation au Service des collections modernes
