Presentation

“Corine Borgnet deploys over time a work that is built in its singularity. Challenging constraints, both technical and aesthetic, she lets herself be guided by her personal mythologies and finds the most appropriate medium to let them unfold. Post-it notes, resin, chicken bones, butterflies, salvaged objects, wax, charcoal, painting, sculpture, drawing, photography, video… whatever the material, whatever the way… The idea takes precedence, then comes the making and the know-how. She is interested in the world of work, (over a period that spans between 2002 and 2012) the repetitiveness of tasks, management that dehumanizes the employee, or the urgency of the pace in which workers are maintained to introduce , through art, of thought in the business world. At the same time, the world of childhood, or rather the end of childhood, attracts and fascinates her (she returns to it from 2005 to 2015) through drawing or sculpture showing hybrid and ambiguous beings who can disturb as much as they attract. The cabinet of curiosities, vanity, sex, love and death, are all serious and immutable themes that recur in her work and which she treats with a humor not devoid of seriousness, or to put it another way that she expresses with a half-naughty, half-squeaky smile. Since 2015, it revolves around the bourgeoisie. The artist probes it, observes it, scrutinizes it. This is what brings him to the particle… This famous noble preposition which generally indicates the family's belonging to the nobility. However, contrary to popular belief, the particle cannot be taken as a mark of nobility (any more than its absence prevents one from being noble) and yet - great virtue of a preposition - this small fragment is often considered as the constituent element of the nobility itself. Not having any in her surname, but descending from a socially downgraded family, Corine Borgnet takes an amused and iconoclastic look at these social and worldly rules, ignores conventions and shatters taboos. »Isabelle de Maison Rouge

Corine Borgnet lives and works in Paris and exhibits regularly in France and abroad.

In addition to his personal exhibitions such as "The Last Supper" at the Valérie Delaunay Gallery (Paris, 2020), "Eternal Loves" at the Dali Museum (Paris, 2019) or at The Phatory Gallery (New York, 2006 / 2007), at United Nations Headquarters (New York, 2005) and at the Alliance française de Columbia University (2002), his work has also been presented in group exhibitions such as at the Center d'art de Comines Warneton (Belgium, 2020), at the Musée des Arts décoratifs in Paris on the occasion of the Marche et demarche exhibition, at the Musée d'Art Moderne in Paris (2019), at the Georges V Art Center in Beijing (2019), Anatomy of a Fairytale at Pornback (Germany, 2018), at the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Strasbourg (2016), at the Hybride 3 biennial (2014 and 2020) as well as at the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London (2001) and at the ArtistSpace of New York (2001).

She has participated in several fairs: D Dessin, the Salon de Montrouge (2020), fairs: Gallerists (2021), Art Paris (2022). Her installation "The last Supper" was shown in the exhibition "Le Goût de l'Art" at the Château du Rivau (Lemeré, 2021) then at the Abbaye de l'Escaldieu in 2022. In 2022 she participated in the exhibition “Flowers" at the priory of Salagon, at the exhibition “Warrior women, women in combat" at the Topographie de L'art in Paris and at the LaBanque art center in Béthune.
