The work of the artist Leonor Antunes takes its point of departure in a history of modernity of which she privileges the shadowy zones, those in particular where many women designers, architects or artists have been relegated. In the exceptional settings of the Chapelle des petits Augustins at the Beaux-Arts de Paris and the Maison André Bloc in Meudon, various figures will emerge: the Japanese Michiko Yamawaki, a resident of the Bauhaus (1930-1932), and Charlotte Perriand, with works produced during her stays in Japan (1940-1942, 1953-1955). A new set of ceramic sculptures and suspensions placed in the center of the nave will dialogue with the collections of casts, remnants of the former museum of French monuments.

This exhibition is produced by the Festival d'Automne, in collaboration with the Beaux-Arts de Paris. With the support of the Gulbenkian Foundation - Delegation in France. With the support of the Marian Goodman gallery (Paris) and the support of the Air de Paris gallery (Paris).
