This catalogue is a wonderful dive into the heart of things since the beginning of humanity.
Artists were the first to take things seriously. They have represented them in many ways. They have made them lively and interesting by highlighting their form, their meaning, their power, their charm. They grasped their ability to make us imagine, think, believe, doubt, dream, act.
Their representations show that the boundary between what is and what is not, between the living and the non-living, is constantly changing. Things speak about themselves and about us, all together in the same world.

Through their inspired texts, more than two hundred authors bring us into the singular universe of things. The chosier, made up of contemporary texts and drawings, offers us a panorama of the sensibilities of our time, where all types of knowledge are invited: art history, history, philosophy, literature, poetry, law, economics, gastronomy, design or botany. Under the guise of talking about things, this book tells us a lot about ourselves.

Exhibition at the musée du Louvre from October 12th 2022 to January 23rd 2023.
