The bookshop is pleased to welcome the artist Rebecca Digne and the associate director in charge of collections at the Centre Georges Pompidou, Jeanne Brun, for a discussion around the book Rebecca Digne published by Les éditions de L’espace d’en bas.
A Livre-Objet by Rebecca Digne with a text by Jeanne Brun, “You said nothing was the root” – “Tu disais rien est la racine“.
Conceived as a panorama deployed by a central core, this horizontal landscape takes us back to a cartographic format whose territories are delimited by strange objects shaped by time, the artist’s sculptures.
Rebecca Digne was born in Marseille in 1982. She lives and works in Paris.
After graduating from the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris, she spent two years as an artist-in-residence at the Rijksakademie Van Beelden Kunsten in Amsterdam from 2010 to 2011. She subsequently attended the Pavillon, laboratoire de création programme at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris from 2013 to 2014. She was also an artist-in-residence at the Villa Médicis in Rome from 2018 to 2019.
Her work is part of the following collections: Centre National d’Art Moderne – Centre Georges Pompidou, Fonds Municipal d’Art Contemporain de la Ville de Paris (FMAC), Centre National des Arts Plastiques (CNAP), Fonds Régional d’Art Contemporain PACA (FRAC PACA), Fondation Memmo and Seven Gravity Collection.
