Atypical figure of contemporary French art, Pascal Rivet has always celebrated the dialogue between art and popular culture: after immersing himself in the world of sport, he scrutinizes the professional world and its automotive icons, both urban and rural. . Darty car, pizza delivery mopeds, Brink's van, combine harvester or tractor ... So many utility vehicles, built to scale 1 in wood painted in the colors of the originals, which stubbornly question the gesture of reproduction. What do we see? From a distance, quite impressive replicas, which capture their ability to make an image. Up close, an undeniable DIY poetry and an empirical know-how that is part of time. Pascal Rivet's art operates in this in-between: between the world of work and the field of art, between image and object, between industrial model and artisanal process. In 2010, Pascal Rivet exhibited at the Chapelle du Genêteil * three imposing raw wood tractors, unpainted. The disappearance of color modifies the approach to the work: less illusionist, it becomes denser. Remains the radical strangeness of these industrial monsters reproduced in the smallest details, life-size sculptures for a demonstration of phantom farmers. With C'EST ENCORE LOIN, Pascal Rivet continues this testing of reality by building the plywood replica of a Lincoln Continental from the 1960s. Warning: no fetishism on the part of the artist when he chooses this legendary car. It focuses more on the idea of landscape and movement, point of view. Pascal Rivet is also seduced by the fictional potential of the object. To premeditate the crash, such would be the artist's fantasy when he orchestrates the visual collision between this wooden Lincoln and a vast agricultural shed, the archetype of globalized rural architecture. This building presents itself to the eye as a drawing projected into space: an open decor, as enigmatic as the vehicle it faces ... Marked by this aesthetic of telescoping, the exhibition reads like a scenario in suspense. , dreamlike and violent. Between DIY and metaphysical break.
