Quentin Lefranc<\/span><\/h2>\n

N\u00e9 en 1987
Vit et travaille \u00e0 Paris<\/p>\n

Con\u00e7ue comme un lieu d\u2019\u00e9tude, l\u2019architecture sert de cadre, de territoire, de terrain de jeu aux propositions de Quentin Lefranc. Toujours, l\u2019artiste \u00e9tablit un dialogue entre le site et ce qui y est d\u00e9velopp\u00e9. Plac\u00e9es \u00e0 la confluence de plusieurs pratiques, ses pi\u00e8ces fonctionnent comme des parenth\u00e8ses ouvertes dans l\u2019espace. Par assemblage ou juxtaposition, il interroge ces \u00e9l\u00e9ments g\u00e9n\u00e9riques qui les composent, joue avec leur champ d\u2019application, leurs histoires, leurs assignations. En relan\u00e7ant les d\u00e9s, il exp\u00e9rimente leurs perm\u00e9abilit\u00e9s, les hi\u00e9rarchies, les conditions d\u2019existence des \u00e9l\u00e9ments mis en jeu. Si une dimension sculpturale domine, ses propositions favorisent un champ d\u2019action plut\u00f4t qu\u2019une pratique. Par glissement, il d\u00e9tourne les parcours habituels pour mieux rejouer les figures qui font autorit\u00e9. \u00c0 chaque fois c\u2019est une mise en pi\u00e8ces du support qui est propos\u00e9 pour interroger l\u2019espace \u00e9largi de l\u2019\u0153uvre. L\u2019ensemble \u00e9tablit un trouble aussi bien sur la perception que sur le statut.<\/p>\n

L\u2019origine de l\u2019\u0153uvre Action office<\/em> est le display \u00e9ponyme \u00e9dit\u00e9 par Herman Miller pour redistribuer et compartimenter les open spaces. Il s\u2019agit d\u2019une structure, faite de plans, qui vient d\u00e9couper le lieu. Un espace ordonn\u00e9 et hi\u00e9rarchis\u00e9 est d\u00e9velopp\u00e9.<\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0J\u2019ai utilis\u00e9 son principe et ai concentr\u00e9 son arrangement afin que les cellules deviennent des sillons labyrinthiques. Une zone d\u00e9limit\u00e9e appara\u00eet, et dessin des chemins qui communiquent sans cesse. C\u2019est un espace que l\u2019on parcourt, o\u00f9 l\u2019on s\u2019arr\u00eate, o\u00f9 l\u2019on bifurque avant de reprendre la d\u00e9ambulation. Exact oppos\u00e9 de l\u2019espace perceptif, le labyrinthe ne peut s\u2019appr\u00e9hender d\u2019un seul regard. Il est n\u00e9cessaire de le traverser pour en prendre connaissance. Un certain rapport cin\u00e9tique le r\u00e9v\u00e8le fragment par fragment et implique une m\u00e9moire corporelle. C\u2019est un jeu sur une limite en train de s\u2019\u00e9crire, sur un int\u00e9rieur qui est en permanence en correspondance avec l\u2019ext\u00e9rieur o\u00f9 la perception de l\u2019espace se m\u00eale au temps.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n

Conceived as a place of study, architecture serves as a framework, a territory, a playground for Quentin Lefranc’s proposals. The artist always establishes a dialogue between the site and what is developed there. Placed at the confluence of several practices, his pieces function as open parentheses in space. Through assembly or juxtaposition, he questions the generic elements that make them up, plays with their scope, their histories, their assignments. By rolling the dice again, he experiments with their permeability, hierarchies and the conditions of existence of the elements involved. If a sculptural dimension dominates, his proposals favour a field of action rather than a practice. By slipping, he diverts the usual routes to better replay the figures that are authoritative. Each time it is a tearing apart of the support that is proposed to question the expanded space of the work. The ensemble establishes a disturbance in perception as well as in status.<\/em><\/p>\n

The origin of the work Action office is the eponymous display published by Herman Miller to redistribute and compartmentalise open spaces. It is a structure, made of plans, which divides the space. An ordered and hierarchical space is developed.<\/em><\/p>\n

“I used its principle and concentrated its arrangement so that the cells become labyrinthine grooves. A delimited area appears, and draws paths that are constantly communicating. It is a space that you walk through, where you stop, where you branch off before resuming your wandering. Exactly the opposite of the perceptive space, the labyrinth cannot be apprehended with a single glance. It is necessary to walk through it to get to know it. A certain kinetic relationship reveals it fragment by fragment and implies a body memory. It is a game about a limit in the process of being written, about an interior that is permanently in correspondence with the exterior where the perception of space is mixed with time.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Action office was created following a residency with the company LSB la salle blanche. This company designs and fits out aseptic care spaces for hospitals, laboratories and controlled atmosphere rooms for the pharmaceutical industry.<\/em><\/p>\n
