Post lot text

Les tableaux d’Adam Adach se présentent comme des lieux de rencontre entre histoire et vie quotidienne. L’artiste s’attache à mettre en avant le rapport entre histoire et mémoire, en dépeignant une narration tant individuelle que collective. Ses toiles s’appuient sur des photographies et s’attachent à affronter certains des moments les plus traumatiques du XXème siècle, et à questionner la place des populations dans les sociétés contemporaines au lendemain des guerres mondiales. Son travail s’axe alors autour de la condition de l’homme et interroge le monde pour le recréer dans une nouvelle combinaison d’interprétations. Nominé au prix Marcel Duchamp en 2007, Adam Adach a fait l’objet de nombreuses expositions, ses œuvres ayant entre autres été exposées à plusieurs reprises au Centre Pompidou. A l’occasion du 20ème anniversaire du Prix Marcel Duchamp, il fut dernièrement présenté au début 2022 dans l’exposition Plus haut que les nues.

Adam Adach's paintings present themselves as places where history and everyday life meet. The artist focuses on the relationship between history and memory, depicting both an individual and a collective narrative. His paintings are based on photographs and are intended to confront some of the most traumatic moments of the 20th century, and to question the place of populations in contemporary societies in the aftermath of the world wars. His approach then focuses on the human condition and questions the world in order to recreate it in a new combination of interpretations. Nominated for the Marcel Duchamp Prize in 2007, Adam Adach has been the subject of numerous exhibitions, his works having been shown several times at the Centre Pompidou. On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the Marcel Duchamp Prize, in early 2022, he was recently displayed in the exhibition Plus haut que les nues.
