Prototype d'une expositionVariations sur Jardin-Théâtre Bestiarium (book / DVD)

 - Prototype d\'une exposition
Box set including a book and a film on DVD dedicated to the Theatergarden Bestiarium exhibition.
A utopia born of the imagination of gallerist and author Rüdiger Schöttle.
Or a radical re-examination of the status of the exhibition as a historical and cultural format.
Or a collection of works by Bernard Bazile, Glenn Branca, James Coleman, Fortuyn/O'Brien, Ludger Gerdes, Dan Graham, Rodney Graham, Marin Kasimir, Christian Philipp Müller, Juan Muñoz, Hermann Pitz, Rüdiger Schöttle, Alain Séchas and Jeff Wall.
Or a film, a slow tracking shot through this exhibition-garden, punctuated by testamonials from project collaborators and expert observers including Bernard Blistène and Xavier Veilhan.
Or a collection of previously published texts and new writing by Erika Balsom, Chris Dercon, Tristan Garcia, Dan Graham, Vincent Normand, Rüdiger Schöttle and Guy Tortosa.
The Theatergarden Bestiarium exhibition, co-produced in 1989 by the Institute for Contemporary Art, P.S. 1 Museum, in New York, and Le Confort Moderne, in Poitiers, was acquired by the Centre national des arts plastiques, in 1990.
Edited by Gilles Coudert and Bénédicte Godin.
Texts by Erika Balsom, Chris Dercon, Tristan Garcia, Dan Graham, Vincent Normand, Rüdiger Schöttle, Guy Tortosa.
Film directed by Gilles Coudert.
