LA QUINZAINE RADIEUSE: A SUMMER OF ART, DESIGN AND ARCHITECTURE EVENTS
The adventure of The Radiant Fortnight was born in 2009. The original idea was to publicise Le Corbusier and Norbert Bézard's utopian project "La Ferme radieuse et le village coopératif" (The Radiant Farm and the Cooperative Village) and to invite artists, designers and architects to think about the project and work on it in the public arena. Eleven years later, and with each new edition, a new project has emerged. espace Bézard - Le Corbusier is created and a permanent collection of outdoor works and microarchitectures is an open-air art trail. Part of the " Destinations Le Corbusier: architectural walks "Certified as a "Council of Europe Cultural Route" in 2019, the Espace Bézard - Le Corbusier has become a must-see site for all lovers of modern architecture.
Alongside this little-known part of Corbusé's history, other architectural utopias flourish along the route: Bulles Six Coques (J-B Maneval), Tétrodon (Atelier d'Urbanisme et d'Architecture), Penta etc. as well as original works by contemporary artists of national and international renown.
THE 12th EDITION: INAUGURATION OF NEW PARTS IN THE PATCOURS AND MEETINGS WITH DIFFERENT ARTISTIC UNIVERSITIES
Initially scheduled for June/July, uncertain for a long time and then postponed because of Covid19, this 12th takes place from 19 September to 18 October 2020. The public will be able to see 36 works and installations in the village and surrounding countryside, including 5 new pieces Inaugurated on this occasion: "Grotte de nez" by Jean Bonichon, "La Rampe" by Claude Parent, "Joli Turbin" by Séverine Hubard, "La Route d'or" by Jean-Baptiste Sauvage and "May cerclé et May souple de Lejaby" by Thomas Mailaender. Two new pieces are currently being installed: "Complex figures 1 & 2" by Bevis Martin and Charlie Youle, and "Piacé>Paris>Brest" by Pascal Rivet and Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec. As well as inaugurating the new pieces in the exhibition, this year's show also brings together different artistic worlds, starting with the encounter between the plastic of a Bulle Six Coques (J-B Maneval) and the crystal of Karinn Helbert's Cristal Baschet at the opening concert of the Quinzaine Radieuse. Through a group show held on different sites, other correspondences between artists (Liaudet/Parent, Rivet/Bouroullec, Bourgeat/Vuillemin etc.) or between artists' works, are established in a light and spontaneous way.
From special editions A silkscreen by Alexios Tjoyas and a multiple by Stéphane Vigny, "Miss O'Clock 3", complete the catalogue of editions held by Piacé le radieux since its creation to support the dissemination and promotion of contemporary art. Visit vernissage of the Quinzaine radieuse is scheduled for Saturday 19 September, with (subject to new health measures) a guided tour of the new rooms in the exhibition and a concert by Karinn Helbert (Cristal Baschet) accompanied by Manuel Decocq on violin. The Quinzaine radieuse concludes with the national architecture days and a meeting with David Liaudet on the work of Claude Parent, on the weekend of 17 & 18 October.
