Death Matters

Death Matters explores the different ways people around the world deal with death. Personal stories and important objects reveal different views of death, how people take leave and commemorate. Contemporary art refers to an array of cultural traditions associated with death.

GRANDVILLE - Un autre monde, un autre temps

26.11.2011 - 04.03.2012 | Musée du temps, Bescançon, France

The core of the exhibition comprises the collection of Ronny and Jessy Van de Velde, supplemented with drawings and documents from the Musée des Beaux-Arts, the Musée Lorrain and Nancy Library, the Musée Carnavalet in Paris and several private collections.

Grandville’s strange world has inspired many artists, from the surrealists to the present. These modern and contemporary echoes also find their way into the exhibition, in the form of work by Marcel Broodthaers, César, Peter de Cupere, Charles Doudelet, Fred Eerdekens, James Ensor, Jan Fabre, Francisco de Goya, On Kawara, Desmond Dorris & Congo, Panamarenko, Odilon Redon, Paul Van Hoeydonck, Koen Vanmechelen and Angel Vergara (who is representing the French-speaking community at the Venice Biennale). Grandville’s images and techniques are also re-used in the broader visual culture, in films by Georges Méliès and the Lumière brothers, Ladislas Starevitch and Charlie Chaplin, the film about Grandville by Serge Vandercam with Christian Dotremont, and an artist’s video by Koen Theys.Exhibition catalogue
