poznámka:
Pascal Lièvre, born in 1963 in Lisieux, France, is appropriating the dissent within political language, with his collages of cultural icons with popular ones. He uses a vast ensemble of artistic references from all aspects of culture and transforms them: philosophy, painting, sculpture, installations, videos, performances, popular songs, politics, psychoanalysis, cinema, etc… Pascal Lièvre is interested by the coalescing encounters, grafts, and overlapping between scholarly and popular cultures. The same appears in his paintings which explicitly quote/refer to famous paintings of the Classic, Modern or Contemporary Art periods. He plays on the fact that it is impossible to distinguish between popularization and decoration. These are issues, especially that of “great” and “sub” cultures, that have been raised by the international artistic scene for a long time. Pascal Lièvre does not apprehend them à la Pop Art or à la Postmodernism: he introduces a critical distance which allows him to interpret their political dimension.
