{"title":"La particularité du tableau vivant dans les situations construites de Tino Sehgal","authors":"Lesley Johnstone","doi":"10.7202/1068324ar","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.7202/1068324ar","url":null,"abstract":"165 Tino Sehgal reconfigure le rituel de l’exposition et bouscule les paramètres qui gouvernent l’économie de l’art au moyen de ses constructed situations, des « situations construites » faites de séquences chorégraphiées et d’instructions orales exécutées par des « joueurs » ou « interprètes » à l’intérieur de musées ou de galeries. Signant l’analyse la plus approfondie de l’œuvre de cet artiste, Dorothea von Hantelmann témoigne, dans How to Do Things with Art (2010), du déplacement radical que Sehgal opère vis-à-vis les structures même de l’économie du milieu de l’art, le rapport fondamental entre l’œuvre et le visiteur ainsi que l’institution muséale et ses fonctions.1 En produisant des œuvres dont il ne subsiste aucune trace matérielle, mais qui sont acquises par des musées au même titre qu’une peinture ou une sculpture, Sehgal bouscule les systèmes d’acquisition et de présentation établis, et, de façon encore plus marquante, ceux de la conservation. En 2013, le Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal (MAC) a présenté deux œuvres de Tino Sehgal dont j’ai assumé le commissariat : Kiss2 (2002) et This situation (2007), toutes deux puisant dans la tradition du tableau vivant. J’ai ensuite été impliquée dans l’acquisition par le MAC de This situation en version bilingue français-anglais, et c’est des enjeux spécifiques liés à l’acquisition et à la conservation de cette œuvre dont il s’agira dans cet essai. Sehgal décrit This situation comme étant une de ses œuvres les plus personnelles. Jalon important dans sa pratique, This situation révèle l’attachement qu’éprouve l’artiste pour les idées, la philosophie, la théorie. Six interprètes — des professeurs et doctorants des départements d’économie, histoire, littérature, philosophie des universités et cégeps montréalais3 — discutent de 400 ans d’histoire culturelle à travers cent citations choisies par l’artiste, qu’il a rassemblées autour de trois thématiques : la notion de situation, le passage d’une société de pénurie à une société d’abondance, et les techniques de soi.4 « Welcome to This situation » est prononcé simultanément par les interprètes, qui souhaitent la bienvenue aux visiteurs, prennent une grande respiration et « avancent » très lentement le long des murs, mais en marchant à reculons, jusqu’à leur position suivante. Six positions, ou tableaux, déterminées par l’artiste sont reproduites. Certaines reprennent celles de peintures célèbres, dont Le déjeuner sur l’herbe (1863) de Manet et Un dimanche après-midi à l’île de La Grande Jatte (1884–1886) de Seurat, facilement reconnaissables par un public averti, tandis que d’autres demeurent mystérieuses, même pour les interprètes. Après cette période de silence et d’immobilité, un des interprètes Lesley Johnstone est conservatrice et chef des expositions et de l’éducation au Musée d’art contemporain de Montréal. — lesley.johnstone@macm.org La particularité du tableau vivant dans les situations construites de Tino Sehgal","PeriodicalId":234580,"journal":{"name":"RACAR : Revue d'art canadienne","volume":"148 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121521696","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Gender, Race, and Nation in Tableau Representing Great Britain and Her Colonies","authors":"Ersy Contogouris","doi":"10.7202/1068318ar","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.7202/1068318ar","url":null,"abstract":"65 Thirty-five or so women, men, and children wearing costume and make-up — a considerable cast — have crowded onto a small stage to perform an allegorical tableau vivant. They are organized into a pyramid with a large base, at the apex of which stands Britannia, above the other figures, holding her characteristic trident and shield. Britannia is flanked by figures representing the forces of order : a Mountie to her left and a member of the military to her right, as well as a third, on the other side of the soldier, in blackface and wearing a costume that is indecipherable given the size, resolution, and lighting of the photograph. Right below them, three young women who represent England, Scotland, and Wales, and then more, but unreadable, personifications of countries to the left and right, some in blackface, men wearing Mountie and military uniforms, and some children sitting or reclining on the floor. Spectators watch the scene from loges to the left and right of the stage, while two rows of musicians can be seen in the pit. | fig. 1 | The title of the performance and circumstances of the event are given to us by an inscription at the bottom of the image — Tableau Representing Great Britain and Her Colonies at a Concert Given in Aid of the Widows and Orphans Created by the War with the Transvaal — which also informs us that the photo was taken by the duo Larss & Duclos at the Palace Grand Theatre in Dawson, Yukon, on February 15, 1900. The inscription bears the number 2568, in keeping with the photographers’ numbering system, as well as the information “Flash Light Photo,” a detail that alerts us to the technical prowess involved in taking the photograph. It is difficult to ascertain from what exact spot in the theatre the photograph was taken. A photo of a concert held at the Palace Grand ca. 1898 in honour of George Washington’s birthday shows the hall as rather vast, which suggests that the photographers might have stood on a contraption in the middle of the seating area built especially for the event in February 1900. | fig. 2 | The tableau vivant, by its very immobility, made it a perfect subject for such a photograph given the technical limitations of the medium at the time. Tableau Representing Great Britain and Her Colonies, which the photography historian Martha Langford has described as “a tour de force on any scale, photographic, political, or musical,”1 has yet to be examined in any detail. This article proposes one such study, specifically in relation to issues of colonialism and gender. What I will argue in this analysis of this dual object of study — the tableau vivant and the photograph of the tableau vivant — is that what might Le 15 février 1900 avait lieu à Dawson au Yukon un concert bénéfice pour venir en aide aux familles de soldats canadiens morts pendant la Guerre d’Afrique du Sud.
