I Shall Always remember…


            « My drawing room » , 2008, Yashimoto Nara 

This work of art is my favorite in the museum because for me it represents something truly unique. In fact it is an installation, a small wooden house which illustrates the personal universe of the artist. In this one you can see objects and images that are dear to him, such as toys from his childhood, his music albums, etc.

This work gives us a feeling of familiarity because we find the framework in which the artist isolates himself to create, he devotes himself body and soul to his work.

                           «  In foutain of life »,     (2001/2014,2022) , Yoshitomo Nara



The work In fountain of life, is my favorite due to its unique and fascinating shape. This work also marked me thanks to his message. The faces of children representing innocence seem serene, yet tears flow down their cheeks. This gave me the impression that the work seems to foreshadow a disturbing and dark perspective for the future.

                  « Puppy «  Jeff Koons,1992


My favorite piece of art is Puppy made by Jeff Koones in 1992. I like its simplicity, the flowers that form its coat make me feel harmony between the animal and nature. It inspires me with good weather and the joy of living.

« Tulipes »   

Jeff Koons   

     2004








This sculpture made an impression on me because of it’s bright colours. I also like the fact that even if it’s made of steel, it feels soft and smooth.

« Man from Naples » 
Jean-Michel Basquiat
1982

I liked it because firstly I appreciate Basquiat's work in general, then the whole inscription written out of order and at first glance without any precise meaning made me want to linger on this work to try to understand it better. Finally, I liked the writing style with this “rough” effect because it is reminiscent of graphitis.

Split Second is a human size art expérience. 

This art Work by Anthony McCall created in 2025 demonstrate a real space were only your vision is request. 

A silence black room without any touch possibility but a white beam of light into a fine fog really create a intringuing atmosphère for the visitor.

Infinity Mirrored Room by Yayoi Kusama 2000

From the outside it is simply a white small box. But then when you pass the door a perspective of infinity thank to the mirror and the colored light set up a mood. It look like a galaxy with a jazzy feeling.

I Shall Always Remember

“Infinity Mirrored Room - A Wish for Human Happiness Calling from Beyond the Universe”

 YAYOI KUSAMA 2020

“I really liked that artwork because it made me feel like I was in another dimension…The lights made the whole place magical. Due to the mirrors, we really had the feeling of infinity out of this little box.”

Nora MESPLIE

Nine Discourses on Commodus, CY TWOMBLY, 1963


“This exhibition of nine paintings caught my attention because of the warm colours and the messiness effect. I found it extremely beautiful especially the most coloured ones. I tried to find a meaning but i couldn't, i never really do with art, so i just continued looking at it and finding it beautiful. ”

 “ Smoke Screen | - VII ”, Anthony McCall, 2017


“I was fascinated by the “tube” effect conveyed by the light and the smoke. Even though it’s not colourful it’s very peaceful and dreamy. I entered the room and went “wow !!” and I’m very proud to say that I shall never forget this artwork.”


Maxime DA SILVA


I shall Always remember

Yoshitomo Nara, Miss moonlight 2020

The first time i saw this painting it gave me an impression of immobility and calm that truly enhances my feelings.

The more and more i looked at it I thought that her eyes were going to open themselves in a second it was like I was waiting for this moment.

This piece of art truly embodies the idea of tranquility peace and waiting/patience.


Après la pluie le acide, Yoshitomo Nara (2006) 

I saw her from far, I got closer and I saw her looking at me. I look at her back and her eyes were sparkling. She is in a purple water which contrast with her orange dress. She seems sad but her eyes are sparkling : her inside beauty and happiness is getting out of her body.




The ten largest,Dë Tio Största,1907

Those paintings convey a lot of emotions, the first ones (blue tones) give an impression of sadness and loneliness. Then, the orange ones give a feeling of anger and make me feel anxious . The other ones become more and more calm with an increasing feeling of serenity.



 Rising Sea by El Anatsui, 2019

I find this artwork very interesting because it combines art and ecology. The artist collects waste found in the sea to recreate a seascape. The painting is very detailed and abstract at the same time, which encourages reflection and imagination.


I shall always remember


 « Le Cygne » 1915 by Hilma af Klint

Inspired by ying and young sign, it reflect 2 différents personalities. The 2 colors emfasize the differences between the 2 ways but the shapes emfasize the same forms between the 2 birds ( which represent 2 personalities )

Aurèle

Roy Lichtenstein « Interior with Mirrored Wall », 1991

It’s a detailed and realistic work of art. It’s highlights the autor skills. Clean room creat a calm aspect which pay attention to me. The mirror effect makes the room bigger than it’s really is. 

Xabi



This painting expresses intense emotion, mixing passion and pain through bright colors and chaotic movements. The dominant red symbolizes energy or anger, while the drips suggest emotional release or crisis.


Paul
The painting Juarez (1958) by Elaine de Kooning is an abstract artwork, an artistic movement that seeks to express emotions and the original use of color. By exploring the emotions that this work conveys, its aesthetics, and its artistic impact, we can better understand the feelings it evokes.

The piece conveys a sense of chaos, an overwhelming energy. The brushstrokes are almost violent, creating a sense of movement. The vivid colors, such as green, red, and blue, contrast with the black strokes. This combination of colors and forms gives the impression of an explosion of energy.

Aesthetically, Juarez uses oil on Masonite, a material that absorbs pigments differently, adding a raw texture to the work.

The bullfight (p145)






« The bullfight on the second day was much better than on the first »


« Romero never made any contortions, always it was straight and pure and natural in line »













« Romero’s bullfighting gave real emotion »
