«Oui, nous avons à faire de l’«infaisable», qui n’entre pour le moment dans aucune limite perceptible ni repérable. On se plaint souvent que ce qu’on fait de plus inventif soit sans cesse «récupéré»: c’est justement que ceux qui «récupèrent» n’en ont pas eu l’initiative, et nous tenons là rétrospectivement la preuve que nous pouvons à l’avenir refaire de l’infaisable - parce que nous l’avons déjà fait par le passé, et que c’est même notre tâche spécifique.» (Ultra-Proust, La Fabrique, 2017, p. 86)

𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐞𝐥 𝐍𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐨𝐧𝐞, 𝑴𝒊𝒍𝒍𝒆 𝒔𝒑𝒆́𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔

𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐞𝐥 𝐍𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐨𝐧𝐞 nous livre un texte inspiré de la juxtaposition de deux images : une photographie en noir et blanc d’un objet non-identifié au-dessus de Santa Monica (Californie), datée de 1942, et un prototype de l’oeuvre 𝑴𝒊𝒍𝒍𝒆 𝒔𝒑𝒆́𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔 (2017) de 𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐥 𝐝𝐞 𝐁𝐫𝐨𝐢𝐧. Leurs similitudes engagent une réflexion sur le potentiel critique de la boule disco de l’artiste québécois, exposée à Paris et Bordeaux.

𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐞𝐥 𝐍𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐨𝐧𝐞, 𝑨 𝑻𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒔𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑺𝒑𝒆𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔

𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐞𝐥 𝐍𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐨𝐧𝐞 brings us a text inspired by the juxtaposition of two images: a black-and-white photograph of an unidentified object above Santa Monica, California, dated 1942, and a prototype of 𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐥 𝐝𝐞 𝐁𝐫𝐨𝐢𝐧’s work 𝑨 𝑻𝒉𝒐𝒖𝒔𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝑺𝒑𝒆𝒄𝒖𝒍𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔 (2017). Their similarities invite a reflection on the critical potential of the Quebec artist’s disco ball, exhibited in Paris and Bordeaux.

“Well of course they do.”

A raucous and lovely launch for Sallie Fullerton’s Baby Face/Face de bébé last night at @ndq_bar_mtl. Thank you to the audience for filling the room and buying ALL the books, to Sallie for their wonderful reading, to the DOCUMENTS team, and to Suzanne Girard, the luminous photographer whose work fills the book.

Could you shut the door? We’re all seated.

host
Okay: we’ve arrived at the seventh of eight motifs.
Orange.
The Field.
Of course its shape is a rectangle.
In brief:
The Field is the space
that connects people.
The playing field.
All my work starts with
me entering some location or other.
A gallery, studio, museum, clubhouse, website,
a book.
A space within which I stage my encounters.
An explicit Extra-Ordinary Place.
The moment I enter the Field
I’m with Others
with whom I have something in common.

coordinator
Got it. Finally one with a concise description. The orange rectangle: the place where We gather. Nice and concrete.

host
The Field creates an inside. But consequently also an outside. ‘In essence, space is that which is preserved: the things that are safeguarded within its free sphere.’ [66] With the threshold as an unavoidable boundary between the two domains.

Thursday morning, May 7, I scripted a gathering at Bruno Books in Venice, as part of Morning Rituals during the Biennale pre-opening.
Starting from chapter seven of I and the Others, the book becomes a shared script: a temporary field formed through reading, a set of wearable connections, and collective presence. Centered around the question: What qualities must a field have to practice care?
