Mrzyk & Moriceau's 'Goldfinger' at Chapelle du Genêteil

French duo Petra Mrzyk and Jean-François Moriceau, known for hallucinatory black-and-white drawings, presented 'Goldfinger' at the 12th-century Chapelle du Genêteil in Château-Gontier from April 8 to June 4, 2006. The exhibition featured a single installation: a windowless room 20 meters long, 5 meters wide, and 2 meters high, placed in the nave. Inside, 33 white tables were arranged in a grid, each illuminated by a hanging lamp and bearing a drawing based on Hermann Rorschach's inkblot test. Mirrors on the interior walls multiplied the space, creating a dizzying effect. The artists, known for commercial work including album covers for Air, a Peugeot 1007 advertisement, and a mineral water campaign, oscillate between advertising and fine art. The installation eschewed traditional wall drawings or framed pieces, instead exploring how to present drawing with minimal means for maximum impact. The work evoked both magic and unease, suggesting a workshop abandoned by clandestine workers. Critic Christophe Le Gac noted the political dimension underlying their practice.
