Paola Pivi / Anthony Mccall / Rivane Neuenschwander & Cao Guimaraes at LE GRAND CAFE, Contemporary Art Centre, Saint-Nazaire (F)



Curator: Sophie Legrandjacques, artistic director of Le Grand Café

As part of the 
Estuaire 2009 Nantes - Saint-Nazaire event, Le Grand Café is proposing an artistic tour of Saint-Nazaire.

Alongside two works permanently installed in the town, Felice Varini's 
Suite de Triangles, 2007 and Gilles Clément's Le Jardin du Tiers-Paysage, 2009, Le Grand Café presents three exhibitions devoted to individual artists on different sites: Paola Pivi, Anthony McCall, and Rivane Neuenschwander & Gao Guimarães.

Although each is very different, all of these exhibitions confront us with experiences marked by a pervasive strangeness. Each artist explores, in their own manner, the perception of the (in)visible and the passage from the real to the unreal, amplifying reality's abstract character.
