Ange Leccia's Retrospective at Mac/Val Blends Cinema and Objects

Ange Leccia, who was born in 1952 in Minerviù, Corsica, is currently showcased in a monographic exhibition at Mac/Val in Vitry-sur-Seine, celebrating three decades of his artistic journey. His artistic endeavors began in the mid-1960s after he attended an experimental high school in Corsica in 1968. Among his early creations were a coffin adorned with book covers on art history and a performance centered around listening to the Beatles. He studied under Dominique Noguez at the Sorbonne. Leccia merges cinema with visual arts, referring to his creations as 'arrangements.' Significant exhibitions include a 1984 film projector installation at Nouveau Musée de Villeurbanne and the 1985 'Séance' at Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris. His debut feature film, 'Nuit bleue,' premiered in 2008. At Mac/Val, he showcases a multi-screen installation featuring works from 1969 to 2006. Additionally, he is the founder and director of the Pavillon du Palais de Tokyo.
