RON MUECK/MŒBIUS conversation. Ron Mueckin bed sculpture 2005 (an enormous woman laying down, isolated in solitary reverie) first presented at Fondation Cartier pour L’Art Contemporain, during the exhibition in 2005, might be seen again during the Vivid Memories exhibition. A special conversation project imagined by the Australian sculptor propose a setting with this sculpture surrounded by the page of Mœbius‘ notebook that were shown for the first time in 1999 during the Un monde réel exhibition. It’s all about a confrontation of different scale, the disproportion large of Ron Mueck and the infinitely detailed and meticulous drawings by Mœbius. Photo report by Pascal GILLET
