Post lot text

Depuis le début de leur collaboration, le duo Tursic & Mille, composé des artistes Ida Tursic (née 1974) et Wilfried Mille (né 1974), ne cesse de redéfinir notre relation aux images à travers le medium de la peinture. Leur démarche artistique est centrée autour de la réutilisation, la réinterprétation et le recyclage d’images. Paraissant être choisies arbitrairement, elles sont souvent issues de la culture populaire, notamment les films, les magazines et internet, y compris dans leurs formes les plus subversives. Cette transfusion d’un medium à l’autre se veut volontairement imparfaite ; l’image originale est reprise en peinture avec des manques, additions et imperfections voulues. Cette déformation visuelle permet de créer une disparité ente le sens original de l’image et notre interprétation de l’œuvre, remettant en cause la production et circulation contemporaine d’images. Ida Tursic et Wilfried Mille ont été les récipiendaires de nombreux prix, dont le Grand Prix de la Fondation del Duca en 2020, et ont été nominés pour le Prix Marcel Duchamp en 2019. Le duo a été exposé au Frac Auvergne en 2011, à la Fondation Ricard en 2017 et à la Fondation Kunst à Wendingen en Allemagne en 2017. Il a également participé à l’exposition Peindre la nuit au Centre Pompidou de Metz en 2019.

‌Since the beginning of their collaboration, the Tursic & Mille duo, composed of the artists Ida Tursic (born in 1974) and Wilfried Mille (born in 1974), has been redefining our relationship to images through the medium of painting.Their artistic approach is centred around the reuse, reinterpretation and recycling of images. Seemingly chosen arbitrarily, they are often taken from popular culture, notably films, magazines and the internet, including in their most subversive forms. This transfusion from one medium to another is deliberately imperfect; the original image is reworked in paint with deliberate gaps, additions and imperfections. This visual distortion creates a disparity between the original meaning of the image and our interpretation of the work,questioning the contemporary production and circulation of images. Ida Tursic and Wilfried Mille have been the recipients of numerous awards, including the Grand Prix of the Fondation del Duca in 2020, and have been nominated for the Prix Marcel Duchamp in 2019. The duo has been exhibited at the Frac Auvergne in 2011, at the Ricard Foundation in 2017 and at the Kunst Foundation in Wendingen, Germany in 2017. They also participated in the exhibition Peindre la nuit at the Centre Pompidouin Metz in 2019.
