Ben Vautier, Niki De Saint Phalle, Franois Morellet, Louise Bourgeois, Alexandre Hollan, Claude Viallat, Sophie Calle, Bernard Pags, Jean-Pierre Pincemin, Annette Messager, Grard Titus-Carmel: eleven major French artists of the last forty years or so, examined in the light of their uniqueness and their rootedness, the specificities of their differing and at times overlapping plastic practices and the swirling and often highly hybridised conceptions entertained in regard to such practices. Thus does analysis range from discussion of the feisty, Fluxus-inspired, free-spirited funkiness of Ben Vautiers work to the various modes of transcendence of trauma and haunting fear generated by the exceptional gestures of Niki de Saint Phalle and Louise Bourgeois, to the alyrical formalism yet imbued with irony and ludicity of Franois Morellet, through to the serene intensities of Alexandre Hollans "vies silencieuses," the infinite a-signatures of Claude Viallats adventure in the sheer joy of a "poiein" of self-reflexive coloration, the powerfully elegant and muscular disarticulations of Bernard Pags sculpture, the great sweep through arts history implied by Jean-Pierre Pincemins chameleon-like gestures, the vast swirling programme of socio-psychological analysis the arts of Annette Messager and Sophie Calle offer in their radically distinctive manners, the obsessively serialised oeuvre of Grard Titus-Carmel allowing a burrowing deep into the opaque logic of a real though dubious presence to the world.
