  1. Arthur Fouray, Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster2017Geneva, 2015. The diamond-shaped Plainpalais square reveals artists’ neon works on top of the surrounding buildings. Expodrome, by Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster, sets the frame.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-dominique-gonzalez-foerster-2400.webp
  2. Arthur Fouray, Alfredo Aceto2017Rue de la Muse links the square to the exhibition space. Alfredo Aceto lived on this street from 2015 to 2016.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-alfredo-aceto-2400.webp
  3. Arthur Fouray, Elisa Langlois2017At that time, the exhibition Aristarco at Quark, Geneva, can be seen on RTS television, where the artist Frédéric Gabioud talks with the French humorist Élie Semoun. I am the Hitchcockian viewer.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-elisa-langlois-2400.webp
  4. Arthur Fouray, Frédéric Gabioud2017The night of my opening, Frédéric Gabioud wears the title of my show on his cap: Spectre.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-frederic-gabioud-2400.webp
  5. Arthur Fouray, John McCracken2017‘Okay, smart guy, explain this one.’ is a handwritten note by John McCracken. Elisa Langlois, the curator, wanted to borrow the punchline as the title of my show.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-john-mccracken-2400.webp
  6. Arthur Fouray, Dan Graham; Kate Moss2017Figurative by Dan Graham combines conceptual art and magazine advertising. The 1993 Calvin Klein Obsession campaign replaces the original right-hand page of Harper’s Bazaar, 1968. Calvin Klein was one of the first ideas behind the show. John Calvin was mostly active in Geneva, and Yves Klein claimed the paternity of the modern monochrome.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-dan-graham-2400.webp
  7. Arthur Fouray, David Bowman2017John McCracken was thought to be the artist behind the monolith in 2001: A Space Odyssey. He strongly believed in UFOs. The room where the old David Bowman finally faces the monolith brings a classical setting and science fiction together.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-david-bowman-2400.webp
  8. Arthur Fouray, Félix González-Torres2017Emotional minimalism. Untitled (Loverboy) by Félix González-Torres expresses a loss we will never know in depth. The artist materialises it only as a pale blue, diaphanous surface. McCracken, Figurative, Obsession, 2001, Félix González-Torres: these are my preparatory sketches for the show.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-felix-gonzalez-torres-2400.webp
  9. Arthur Fouray, #aaafff2017The first physical gesture is a monochrome painted curtain, 16 metres long. The curtain was made but never exhibited. It is rolled up inside painted wooden canvases, assembled together as a crate. The crate belongs to Morel, a series of works in which tests are stored.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-aaafff-2400.webp
  10. Arthur Fouray, Mathilde de Flandre2017The Bayeux Tapestry is the principle that defines how the curtain relates to the other works in the show. Each of them marks a specific moment in art history. Together they were meant to form a narrative in space, with the curtain as the projection surface.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-mathilde-de-flandre-2400.webp
  11. Arthur Fouray, Morel2017In Adolfo Bioy Casares’s novel, Morel invents a machine that records the actions of human beings and loops them, reproducing reality. The machine keeps running thanks to the cycle of the ocean waves. (The Invention of Morel is one of the key concepts behind the relational aesthetics movement.) Seen by only a few, the enclosed 16-metre curtain acts as a ‘legend’ for viewers, who cannot verify its authenticity.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-morel-2400.webp
  12. Arthur Fouray, Spectre2017A loose continuum and a hopeless cultural competition: Spectre opens on 12 November 2015, just after the twenty-fourth James Bond film, also called Spectre, opened in France. The opening fell one day before the Paris attacks, adding more ghosts to the story.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-spectre-2400.webp
  13. Arthur Fouray, Sylvie Fleury2017Obsession, the 1994 wall painting by Sylvie Fleury, is a step back towards the Calvin Klein advertisement and a leap forward to the idea of the empty blue screen.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-sylvie-fleury-2400.webp
  14. Arthur Fouray, Philippe Parreno; Spectre Version 012017Inspired by the translucent screens used by Philippe Parreno, my curtain becomes a 7-metre screen painting in the Polyvision film format (4:1). A screen has a shape before it has an image.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-philippe-parreno-spectre-version-01-2400.webp
  15. Arthur Fouray, Spectre Version 012017The painted cloth is stretched by hand with 350 metres of rope on an aluminium frame. The whole structure hangs from the ceiling.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-spectre-version-01-2400.webp
  16. Arthur Fouray, Spectre Version 022017Second version of my exhibition. The central screen separated into three blue wall paintings, which began a new series in my work: #000fff. Three chroma-key blue wall paintings fill the entire space. They split the Polyvision format into its three individual aspect ratios (1.33:1 + 1.33:1 + 1.33:1) and so bring the three rooms of the space together. They return to the idea of a background behind the 16-metre curtain. Through the film format and the chroma-key blue, the wall paintings clearly set the space up as an interface.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-spectre-version-02-2400.webp
  17. Arthur Fouray, Delphine Seyrig; Brian De Palma2017Inter, from Interview no. 3, composes a riddle with the monumental face in Brian De Palma’s film Mission to Mars.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-delphine-seyrig-brian-de-palma-2400.webp
  18. Arthur Fouray, Pierre Huyghe; Damien Hirst2017This bronze head, which houses extraterrestrial life, is the plot behind the Zoodram 5 aquarium by Pierre Huyghe. It works like a Russian doll: a Martian setting contains La Muse endormie by Constantin Brancusi, itself used as a shell by a hermit crab. Aquarium tanks are turning into a contemporary art cliché. They can be seen in the practices of Hans Haacke, Damien Hirst, Pierre Huyghe and Jeff Koons (among others). When you enter the second version of my exhibition, you first see a painting that contains a toy aquarium truck, and the journey ends with a hyperrealistic painting of Walt Disney’s Cinderella Castle. These two poles set the tempo of the exhibition.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-pierre-huyghe-damien-hirst-2400.webp
  19. Arthur Fouray, Paul Grimault2017The palace of Takicardie and Cinderella Castle share a postmodern arrangement of existing European castles. These cartoons give children a clear mental picture of what a castle should look like: a postmodern Tower of Babel.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-paul-grimault-2400.webp
  20. Arthur Fouray, L’époque et son style2017L’époque et son style is the title of my gouache reproduction of the Walt Disney castle. It is also the French title of Authentic Decor, an encyclopaedia of decoration by Peter Thornton. In SCREEN the castle, like every page, is a silkscreen on canvas; it represents the gouache.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-lepoque-et-son-style-2400.webp
  21. Arthur Fouray, Peter Thornton2017The castle and the encyclopaedia form a counterpoint. Together they reveal the research on which the exhibition was based.Page: https://arthurfouray.systems/screenImage: https://arthurfouray.systems/media/screen-2017-peter-thornton-2400.webp
