Vanessa Morisset

Docteure en histoire de l’art et critique d’art, Vanessa Morisset s’intéresse à peu près à tout, suivant un programme inspiré du « sortir de la philosophie par la philosophie » de Gilles Deleuze transposé à l’art. En tant qu’historienne, elle travaille sur les relations entre l’art et les autres domaines, notamment à travers les liens high and low entre art et culture populaire. Sa thèse portait sur Mimmo Rotella et ses décollages d’affiches de cinéma – westerns, péplums, films fantastiques et d’horreur – à Rome, autour de 1960.

Critique d’art, elle collabore régulièrement aux revues 02, esse et art press. 

Mais une réflexion mêlée d’amour fou pour l’écriture la conduit aussi à d’autres productions textuelles plus expérimentales, avec en tête la belle idée de Michel Leiris « c’est par la subjectivité (portée à son paroxysme) qu’on touche à l’objectivité ».

À l’ESAD, elle enseigne l’histoire des arts et la culture générale pour un aperçu

"TUNE"

This project, inspired by the practice of customization, allows you to transform your vehicle with different modules for driving, merchandise transport or people transport.
An independent chassis, with modular wheelbase, can receive different modules, to create the perfect vehicle for your current needs.
Hence, you can drive with a single cockpit, with a camper module, with a food truck, or with other variations. The concept always exploits the base of the same vehicle.

Gardens of Chaumont 2007

Three gardens conceived by ESAD's students have been selected by the 2007 Chaumont-sur-Loire Garden Festival.

This international event which attracts 180,000 visitors each year has presented 26 new gardens on the theme “mobile garden” in 2007. The jury, chaired by Erik Orsenna, has retained three works of students of the ESAD of Reims among the 77 projects made by the other schools. The three projects were conceived during the course of “vegetal design” led by designer Patrick Nadeau.

The gardens have been achieved with the joint efforts of the pupils of Lycée de Thillois and the green spaces department of the City of Reims.

From 27 April 2007 to 15 October 2007
