Bernard Lamarche-Vadel retrospective at Musée d'Art Moderne de Paris
From May 29 to September 6, 2009, the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris presented 'Bernard Lamarche-Vadel, Dans l'oeil du critique.' This exhibition highlighted the works of French artists, such as Arman, César, and Jean Degottex, whom Lamarche-Vadel supported since the 1970s. It also included international figures he introduced to France, like Joseph Beuys and Mario Merz. Notably, the show featured lesser-known painters from the early 1980s, including Robert Combas and Catherine Viollet, who gained recognition through 'Finir en beauté.' Audio and video materials showcased Lamarche-Vadel's teaching approach, with interviews revealing unexpected insights. The exhibition was accompanied by two publications: a catalogue and a monograph edited by Mathieu Larnaudie.
