Previous Exhibitions
VRAOUM !
Bande dessinée & Art contemporain

at la maison rouge 28th May to 27th September 2009

VRAOUM ! is an onomatopoeia that conjures up an image. It is a trajectory with a car at one end and a concept at the other. A noise that makes sense. We like composites such as comic strips, part grass-roots, part cerebral. Not that we have divided this exhibition at la maison rouge in two, with art on one side and comics on the other. We see art on all sides, and especially where it's least expected. VRAOUM! is a celebration of paintings, sculptures and drawings shown side-by-side. There is no hierarchy and certainly no divisions. Comic strips are presented as art and contemporary art as being fuelled by strips. Put simply, this is one big jubilation. We imagined encounters between these often similar worlds but in a flexible way. Sometimes comic strips fall into autonomous genres, such as westerns, sci-fi, eroticism, humour, microcosms, etc. Elsewhere, themes such as superheroes and manga have inspired a fabulous merging of visual art and strips.

VINYL
disques et pochettes d'artistes

From February 19th to May 16th 2010, la maison rouge presents Vinyl, an exhibition of records and covers compiled by the British collector, publisher and curator Guy Schraenen.
For more than 30 years, Guy Schraenen's fascination with artists' multiples (objects, catalogues, books, magazines) has led him to amass a unique and highly specialised collection on the theme of sound.
Vinyl shows LPs from an acoustic and visual angle to illustrate how artists from the 1920s and throughout the twentieth century have experimented with language and sound. The exhibition presents close to 800 albums alongside tapes, CDs, specialist magazines, reference books, catalogues and artworks.
