Sophie Calle celebrates in her own way the 50th anniversary of Pablo Picasso's death, by taking over the entire four floors of the Hôtel Salé with an original exhibition proposal.
Organized in four phases corresponding to the museum's four floors, the À toi de faire, ma mignonne exhibition runs counter to the many events of the "Célébration Picasso 1973-2023", which focus on the Spanish artist. Sophie Calle's exhibition takes a curious, offbeat look at a selection of Picasso's most emblematic works, whose images or memories the artist conjures up through a personal narrative that unfolds on the museum's first floor. With this exhibition, which unfolds independently of Picasso on each floor and takes on a deliberately retrospective character, Sophie Calle explores some of her central themes, such as the deprivation of the gaze and disappearance, using archives and writing as sources and raw materials for her creation. Taking up the challenge of invitation, the artist questions with wit and depth the critical reception of her work and her concern to pass it on to future generations
