Nathalie du Pasquier - RO-SÉ, A Book as a Bridge
Une publication hybride, entre monographie, livre d'artiste et catalogue, documentant l'ensemble de l'œuvre de Nathalie Du Pasquier.
Publié suite à l'exposition personnelle de Nathalie Du Pasquier au MACRO à Rome (Museo di Arte contemporanea di Roma), puis au Mrac Occitanie, Sérignan, sa plus grande exposition à ce jour qui a rassemblé plus de cent peintures, sculptures, dessins et gravures, du début des années 1980 à aujourd'hui, ce livre oscille entre catalogue d'exposition et livre d'artiste en juxtaposant des photographies des œuvres de Nathalie Du Pasquier, des vues d'installation de l'exposition au MACRO et des extraits de textes de divers écrivains et personnalités fondamentales pour sa pratique. Ces éléments s'assemblent pour créer une extension de l'exposition elle-même, sous une forme qui traduit l'esprit de l'exposition : les pages deviennent des espaces d'exposition accueillant des associations et des combinaisons qui permettent une compréhension et une exploration plus approfondies du travail de Du Pasquier, et de son imagination au sens large. C'est un aperçu des possibilités offertes par son œuvre, qui peut être abordée, interprétée et vécue sous d'innombrables angles. C'est l'immensité et la variété mêmes de son œuvre et de ses inspirations qui rendent l'exploration de son travail – et par conséquent cette publication – non exhaustive.
Publié à l'occasion de l'exposition de Nathalie Du Pasquier « Campo di Marte » au MACRO, Rome, en 2021 et au Mrac Occitanie, Sérignan, en 2022.
Designer, sculptrice et peintre, Nathalie du Pasquier (née à Bordeaux en 1957) fut l'une des femmes du groupe Memphis qui, au début des années 1980, su faire bouger, autour d'Ettore Sottssas, les lignes du bon goût et les frontières de la société de consommation. Installée depuis à Milan depuis 1979, Nathalie du Pasquier a par la suite repris une intense pratique d'atelier et entretenu des rapports de bon voisinage avec ces objets du quotidien qui ont fait sa fortune pendant l'ère Memphis, et bien après, dans ses toiles aux compositions minimales ou ses modules géométriques. Cette capacité à circuler entre les formes et les pratiques, jusqu'à la « redécouverte » récente de son travail dans le champ de la mode qui a fait appel à ses services au milieu des années 2000 pour redessiner des motifs post-Memphis, est sans doute ce qui caractérise le mieux cette artiste atypique née en 1957. Et explique sans doute pourquoi son travail, jusqu'à récemment encore, semblait voué à une certaine marginalité.

A hybrid monograph/artist book of Nathalie Du Pasquier's work.
Published on the occasion of Nathalie Du Pasquier's solo show at MACRO – Museum of Contemporary Art of Rome, this book navigates the space between an exhibition catalogue and the artist book with juxtapositions of photographs of Nathalie Du Pasquier' works, installation views of the show at MACRO, and extracts from texts by various writers and figures fundamental for her practice. These come together to create an extension of the exhibition itself, in a form that channels the spirit of the show: the pages become exhibition spaces embracing associations and combinations allowing for a deeper understanding and exploration of Du Pasquier's work, and her imagination at large. It is a glimpse into the possibilities offered by her oeuvre, which can be approached, interpreted, and experienced from countless perspectives. It is the very vastness and variety of her work, and her inspirations, that make the exploration of her work—and as a result this publication—non-exhaustive. This publication is part of an ongoing study of her work and documents her exhibition at MACRO, "Campo di Marte," Du Pasquier's biggest show to date which brought together over one-hundred paintings, sculptures, drawings, prints, and cabins, from the early 1980s to present day.
A famous designer and co-founder of the Memphis group in Milan in 1981, Nathalie Du Pasquier (born 1957 in Bordeaux, France, lives in Milan, Italy) accompanied the (post)modern adventure around designer Ettore Sottsass, with the creation of objects, fabrics, carpets, and furniture. In 1986, she started devoting herself exclusively to two- and three-dimensional painting. Memphis's radicalism and formal inventiveness measured solely in terms of a scathing and iconoclastic postmodernism erased a little too quickly the adventure's modern foundations. Nathalie Du Pasquier's paintings are a perfect revelation of these connections: axonometric compositions applied to painting, the palette of muffled colors, objects, when they are present in the compositions, wink at the purism of a Corbusier or an Ozenfant. Mixed with memories and assimilations arising from the most tridimensional Suprematism–the architectones–some paintings and constructions also give prominence to this history of art and the applied arts.
