“I START FROM THE PRINCIPLE THAT EVERY ARTIST HAS A TOUCH OF MADNESS THAT HE’D LIKE TO SHOW, BUT DOESN’T DARE”.<\/p>\n

The tone is set right from the entrance. Ben’s paintings come into “dialogue” here and there with those from Anatole Jakovsky’s original collection, reflecting a certain intellectual ferment that characterizes both host and guest artist. Coincidentally, Ben was present at the museum’s opening 40 years ago!
\nNo introductory cartel at the entrance. Ben freely inscribed this sentence in a cursive script recognizable among many others, with a light hand guided by his creative “genius” and sometimes in interaction with amused and amazed museum visitors.<\/p>\n

The installation took three months, and some of the works were made on site. It was punctuated by a series of furnishings carefully selected by Ben<\/p>\n

Ben’s universe is presented in a succession of moments that, from his “small ideas” to “new writing”, “sculpture”, “photography”, “time” and “death”, present a kaleidoscope of his most current achievements.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

A small living room, a bedroom and dressing room, a bathtub, table soccer, tables and chairs for conversation, a projection corner, a podium for debate, background music by Erik Satie, a stairwell reinterpreted by Ben and christened the “psychiatric staircase”. Outside, in the gardens and terrace, works by Ben and from his private collection explore the theme of madness and art. Its “ring” is ready for performances.<\/p>\n

The exhibition will be accompanied by a year-long program of events featuring film screenings, unexpected encounters, performances, evenings of madness and philosophy for a unique, immersive experience, with guests taking over both the villa and the gardens.
\nThis exhibition has been organized with the support of La Poste, which will be issuing a stamp to mark the occasion and offering a mail art space in the museum for the duration of the exhibition.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

BEN is the pseudonym of Benjamin Vautier. The artist, born in 1935 in Naples, Italy, is a French artist of Swiss origin. He became a household name in the late 1960s. Part of the post-modern artistic avant-garde, BEN is one of the main founders of the Fluxus movement. Internationally acclaimed for his performances, installations and distinctive style, his work can be found in numerous French and international collections. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
