For the first time, the Centre Pompidou invites an artist to intervene in its spaces. Sarkis, on the occasion of the exhibition "Passages", seizes highly symbolic territories according to a strategy of infiltration of its own - from the museum rooms to the Brancusi workshop, from libraries to the Forum, to the Ircam. Passages" favours a logic of fragmentation and bursting, disorienting the visitor, who finds himself caught up in a real track game. The catalogue traces in images these walks from one work to another, and, through photographs of the artist, invites to enter his studio. It brings together points of view and interpretations at the crossroads of the history of art and philosophy, music and cinema.
