Bénédicte Garnier, curator of the "Rêve d’Égypte" exhibtion, recounts the scultpure's resonance with an Egypt he dreamed up, collected and envisioned.
The exhibition evokes for the first time the echo of Egyptian art in the sculptor's work, through his research on the representation of the human form, the simplification of shapes, fragmentation or monumentality.
The visit also reveals several narratives of XIXth century visions of Egypt; they conjure the intermediaries, writers, artists, antiquarians and Egyptologists, who guided the artist down an Egyptian path by feeding him various visual references, stories or artifacts.
