In a type of breakthrough in the exhibition space, an intense black monochrome resting against the wall absorbs the light, standing like a screen in front of another work on paper that protrudes discreetly above it. Now inaccessible, this eclipsed composition suggests a different indexical system for the appearance of images. Through the regular use of spray paint on samples drawn from the visual continuum, Clément Rodzielski asserts a gesture of “mechanical” erasure associated with wooden panels that he conceives as “sources and vehicles of mural traces”. Each element of Untitled has been rethought according to a specific installation in the Grands a series in order to reveal the fluidity of the gaze and to broaden the pictorial possibilities to move towards a new perception of a painting can be.
