Intime Nature: Marie de Brugerolle Curates Domestic Nature at Pougues-les-Eaux
Marie de Brugerolle is hosting an exhibition called 'Intime Nature' at the Centre d'art contemporain in Pougues-les-Eaux, France, from September 29 to December 23, 2001. The show reimagines the museum as a cozy home with a garden, encouraging visitors to think about how we relate to nature, especially the kind shaped by cultural influences. Artists like Hugues Decointet, Fabien Lerat, and Kirsten Mosher are among those featured. Their work spans drawings, installations, photography, and video, exploring ideas like living within nature, shifting viewpoints, and redefining landscapes. For instance, Mosher's 'Landing Party' includes little tents on walls, while Decointet's 'Sans titre (découverte 04)' critiques film representation through a large curved photo.
