The regularly renewed current presentation focuses here on works that testify to the diversity of artistic contexts in our globalised world, and on the environment and systems that constitute veritable artistic programmes in their own right.
This presentation is organised in historical sequences, revealing a constantly developing collection. Among the emblematic works in the collection, some of which are veritable environments, we find Ben's Le Magasin, Plight by Joseph Beuys, La Salle blanche by Marcel Broodthaers, Le jardin d'hiver by Jean Dubuffet, Zapping Zone by Chris Marker, Respirare l'ombra and Alberi by Giuseppe Penone.
Visitors will also discover new acquisitions and donations that testify to the constant focus of the Musée National d'Art Moderne and the Friends of the Centre Pompidou on the vitality of the artistic scene in France.
Having lived in Europe for almost fifty years, Japanese artist Leiko Ikemura creates works at the point where two traditions and cultures meet, Eastern and Western. Her approach lies at the crossroads between the avoidance of rationality and the desire to take the viewer into a sensual and emotional experience.
This multidisciplinary artist, who focused on sculpture from 1984 onwards, returned to painting and drawing in the 1990s. For her, practising different mediums is very complementary. The conception of a painting occurs through drawings that can lead to lithography or influence the sculpture in progress.
Since the 2000s, the human figure is pre-eminent in her drawings.
