Félix Vallotton, un hommage
29.01–25.05.2025
Musée Jenisch, Vevey

Inspired by Félix Vallotton's engraving practice, which captured the atmosphere of late 19th-century Parisian society, Denis Savary invited students in ECAL's Bachelor Fine Arts program to design a collective exhibition of printed images.

To evoke Félix Vallotton's contemporary and typically Parisian spaces for disseminating images and ideas, Morris columns are recreated and scattered throughout the museum. These pieces of street furniture, conceived as modular exhibition devices, house a motley production of printed images, leaflets, posters and butterflies that reflect the cultural offerings and voices of the present day. Like the original models, these columns also provide a multi-functional interior space, serving as a storeroom, public toilet or telephone booth.
