\"\"La rupture avec le tissage d\u00e9coratif<\/h3>\n

Dans les ann\u00e9es 1960, Magdalena Abakanowicz invente les Abakans<\/em>, ces vastes pi\u00e8ces textiles lib\u00e9r\u00e9es du mur, suspendues dans l\u2019espace, travers\u00e9es par le vide. Faute de mat\u00e9riaux sous le r\u00e9gime communiste, elle r\u00e9cup\u00e8re des cordes, des toiles us\u00e9es, des fibres v\u00e9g\u00e9tales qu\u2019elle teint, tresse, noue, coud \u00e0 m\u00eame le sol de son atelier. Le geste est physique, presque archa\u00efque. L’artiste travaille le jute, le sisal, le chanvre comme d\u2019autres taillent la pierre. Le textile devient peau, membrane, organisme. Cette approche transforme radicalement le champ de la sculpture. La mati\u00e8re souple acquiert une pr\u00e9sence monumentale, immersive, qui enveloppe le spectateur et brouille la fronti\u00e8re entre artisanat et art majeur.<\/p>\n

Le tissu comme l’organisme \u00e9l\u00e9mentaire du corps<\/h3>\n

Son processus cr\u00e9atif rel\u00e8ve d\u2019une tension constante entre contr\u00f4le et accident. Magdalena Abakanowicz commence par des structures internes simples. Puis, elle accumule les couches de fibres, les nouages, les sutures visibles. Rien n\u2019est dissimul\u00e9. Les coutures, les cicatrices, les irr\u00e9gularit\u00e9s participent de l\u2019\u0153uvre. Les formes naissent souvent sans dessin pr\u00e9paratoire pr\u00e9cis : l\u2019artiste ajuste au fur et \u00e0 mesure, guid\u00e9e par la r\u00e9sistance du mat\u00e9riau. Cette m\u00e9thode empirique produit des volumes ambigus, \u00e0 la fois v\u00e9g\u00e9taux, animaux et humains. Avec Embryologie<\/em> ou les reliefs Paysages<\/em>, elle pousse plus loin encore cette exploration des m\u00e9tamorphoses. Le visiteur circule dans ses environnements comme dans un corps agrandi.<\/p>\n

L’expression de la foule<\/h3>\n

Avec Dos<\/em>, Mutants <\/em>ou La Foule V<\/em>, Magdalena Abakanowicz multiplie des figures sans t\u00eate, creuses, moul\u00e9es dans des toiles de jute durcies \u00e0 la r\u00e9sine. Align\u00e9es, regroup\u00e9es, elles composent une masse compacte. La mati\u00e8re reste rugueuse, presque pauvre, mais l\u2019effet est saisissant. La foule n\u2019est pas une somme d\u2019individus : elle devient organisme anonyme. Une entit\u00e9 inqui\u00e9tante. L\u2019artiste \u00e9voque \u00ab la foule agissant comme un organisme d\u00e9cervel\u00e9 \u00bb. Ces silhouettes priv\u00e9es d\u2019identit\u00e9 portent la m\u00e9moire des totalitarismes et des violences du XXe si\u00e8cle. Elles traduisent aussi une vision lucide de la condition humaine. A la fois vuln\u00e9rable, interchangeable, mais toujours debout. Par le tissage devenu sculpture, Abakanowicz aura donn\u00e9 corps \u00e0 cette tension. Entre singularit\u00e9 et masse, imposant une \u0153uvre pionni\u00e8re qui continue de red\u00e9finir la mati\u00e8re m\u00eame de la sculpture.<\/p>\n
