{"product_id":"pierrette-bloch-textes-critiques-et-entretiens","title":"Pierrette Bloch. Textes critiques et entretiens","description":"\u003cp\u003ePierrette Bloch’s work began to gain recognition among the general public in the early 2000s through exhibitions at the Centre Pompidou, in Vevey (Switzerland), and at the Karsten Greve Gallery (Paris\/Cologne). Her career as an artist, however, began in the early 1950s and continued with a deliberate sense of discretion, exploring various techniques—collage, textiles, horsehair, and graphic symbols resembling writing—until she found, in series of black dots on a white background or white dots on a black background (which she herself ironically referred to as “dots”), the “language” with which she has come to be identified.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book draws on a selection of critical texts devoted to Pierrette Bloch’s works throughout her career. The multiplicity of perspectives—at the very moment these works appeared, and thus without the hindsight and knowledge that history provides once it is complete—allows us to superimpose and reconstruct all these moments of exchange between an artist and her earliest critics and her initial audience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFrom actor and mime Étienne Decroux to Philippe Dagen, including Philippe Piguet, Daniel Abadie, Élisabeth Amblard, and many others, a whole different story unfolds—one set apart from the various artistic movements that have dominated the scene from the 1950s to the present. This story is not only that of many female artists who were kept in the shadows but also that of a path Pierrette Bloch chose to follow at her own pace, with the sole requirement of staying as true as possible to what she believed she needed to do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplementing the critical essays are several interviews given by Pierrette Bloch for films, exhibition catalogs, and radio programs with producers such as Alain Veinstein and Laure Adler. This book constitutes a collection previously unpublished to date, bringing together some sixty texts accompanied by an index of names and a general bibliography.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2021\u003cbr\u003eFrench\u003cbr\u003e304 pages\u003cbr\u003e17 x 24 cm\u003cbr\u003ePaperback\u003cbr\u003eISBN: 978-2-36306-288-8\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e© Bernard Chauveau\u003cbr\u003e© Méridianes\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yvon Lambert Bookshop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58761272754524,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0085\/4913\/8498\/files\/9782363062888-475x500-1.webp?v=1787397640","url":"https:\/\/www.yvon-lambert.com\/products\/pierrette-bloch-textes-critiques-et-entretiens","provider":"Yvon Lambert Paris","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
