Abstract

The exhibition Urban Matters is a new chapter of Adrien Tirtiaux’s research into the public realm, which is also one of artconnexion’s main interests. A series of massive sculptures demonstrates his method of working with the urban fabric, as do his three interventions in situ. The specific features of « 9 rue du cirque » and the immediate surroundings are taken as various opportunities of diversion, intrusion and interfe- rence. Adrien Tirtiaux plays with the delimitations of the exhibition space, disturbing the usual functions of the building and blurring the borders between the inside and the outside. Finally the whole building is used as material, treated as matter and revealed to be both porous and opaque, implying a conception of the city as a malleable space.
