Ralph Rugoff, guest curator of 2015 Biennale de Lyon: “The impulse to announce a clean break from the past, to instigate a rupture with tradition, is the modernist gesture par excellence. Is it possible then, that our recurring desire to declare the end of the modern era is, in fact, merely a symptom of the modernity it aspires to bury? […] La vie moderne, the 13th edition of the Biennale de Lyon, sets out to explore this possibility. Its title unavoidably evokes echoes of earlier, and perhaps more optimistic, moments in history, but rather than its potential irony, what drew me to use this title was its ambiguity.” Invited to design the visual identity of the event, my (rejected) project was to propose an oversized identity manual, playing with the principles of modernist graphic design of the 60's. Rather than applying this guidelines to the communication, the manual itself (as an abstract of ideal uses) becomes the communication. It's, of course, typeset in Neue Haas Grotesk.

  • Kantia — Hommage à Pavlovski

  • ■

Born in Russia, André Pavlovski (1891-1961) brought modernism to basque architecture in the 1930s. For its first publication, I proposed to Kantia editor, based in Saint-Jean-de-Luz (in a beautiful Pavlovski house) to imagine a series of poster inspired by his most emblematic work, the Harbor Lights of the city. Two asymetrical towers, on both sides of the port, one in white and red (Saint-Jean) the other in white and green (Ciboure). I studied Pavlovsky architecural vocabulary, made of flat asymetrical surfaces and geometry, and proposed a complex graphic system to produce a series of posters. 4 compositions present one view of Saint-Jean, one of Ciboure, and two of both harbor lights, in 3 colors : Blue, Red and Green. Blue defines the sky and the silhouettes of the buildings : printed in split fountain, it evolves from dawn to dusk. The composition allows green and red colors to be combined upside up and upside down, to reveal several views of the harbors, and create imaginary ones. In one single print-run, 168 different posters were produced with Lézard Graphique, in Brumath. Some posters are still available at www.kantia.eu.
