-PublicationThe book entitled The Architect was published expressly for three exhibits devoted to Marc Bauer by the FRAC Auvergne, FRAC Alsace and the FRAC Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur.

AROUND THE EXHIBITION

Cinema-concert Kafka & Marc BauerThursday, October 8th 2015 at 9pmDock des Suds, 2 rue Urbain V, 13002 Marseille

An animated film of Marc Bauer’s film The Architect will be projected, accompanied by a live performance by Kafka, author of the sound recording. Concert version of Jean Renoir’s silent film the Little Match Girl”, 1928 after Andersen’s fable.KAFKA: Guillaume Mazard (bass), Rémi Aurine-Belloe (guitar, vibraphone), Rémi Faraut (drums, percussion), Emmanuel Siachouet (guitar).

Showcase on art: Marc BauerJuly 2nd – July 29th 2015opening; Thursday July 2nd 2015Galeries Lafayette located at 40-48 rue Saint Ferréol, 13001 Marseille In the framework of this event, the FRAC and Galeries Lafayette have invited Marc Bauer to showcase his work in a window at Galeries Lafayette, Saint Ferréol, Marseille.

Exhibition After the FRAC Auvergne (spring 2014 and the FRAC Alsace 2014-2015), the FRAC PROVENCE-ALPES-CÔTE D’AZUR subsequently opens its doors for the third chapter of the solo exhibit entitled Cinerama, dedicated to Marc Bauer.

Marc Bauer’s work is built upon an enlarged practice around drawing in varied formats and mediums ranging from traditional paper to a projection of images and mural drawings.

“Marc Bauer’s work is based on an inquest into the manner History has been written while imbedded in the story of those writing it or when partially falsified by way of contaminating, invented elements.. History has always been treated in major works as an incomplete, resembling a matrix of narration, like a poetic field wherein events become objects of re-appropriation, submitted to a kind of faltering beginnings, derived from a partially damaged archeology, comprised of bits and pieces assembled with the glue of personal memories. This exhibit, entitled Cinerama, broadens the artist’s research, staging them from a viewpoint of filmic territory, including the film The Architect, based on F.W. Murnaus’s film Nosferatu, whose horrific symphony dated 1922 is a culmination [….]” (J.C. Vergne)

From filmic image to intimate souvenir, Marc Bauer’s work is thus imbued with narrations taking form there where layers of the past combine with that of the imaginary. With a great economy of means, the artist unravels his universe from a series of collective, familial or autobiographical stories, he unveils as freeze frames of a same sequence. Bearers of a language we can easily appropriate, the material sketches itself out for the eye as a screen subject to new projections. In his graphic work, Bauer transgresses notably technical conventions and, through qn qngle of dilution the disappearance of motifs. This freedom he often accords himself allows his drawing to brush up against pictorial dimensions. Working on diverse types of mediums and formats, exploiting both assembling and projection, he likewise uses other techniques including his allegorical tapestry Melancholia, produced in Aubusson. 1

Marc Bauer fills both floors during the FRAC’s exhibition as well as the multimedia floor. His show will be punctuated with encounters held at the FRAC notably in the documentation center for the presentation of his publication including the Architect (co-edition: FRAC Auvergne, FRAC Alsace, FRAC Provenc-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, 2014) and the launching of his magazine MUET 2 produced in the framework of Marc Bauer’s invitation at the School of art and design Marseille-Méditerranée (ESADMM).

Hors les murs / off site, The FRAC PROVENCE-ALPES-CÔTE D’AZUR has invited Marc Bauer to show his work for the seventh edition of “Art Showcases” in July followed this Autumn by a Cinema-concert Kafka &Marc Bauer at the Dock des Suds Marseille.
