Hervé Di Rosa - Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe - 1994 - Jaren 1990

In 1994, a collector and a gallery owner came up with the idea of bringing together 25 contemporary artists around Édouard Manet's famous work, Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe.
The big names of the moment have lent themselves to the project, on an imposed format of about 175x200cm, with painting, photography or mixed techniques. Almost a century between the work of Manet and that of these young contemporary artists! No scandal this time but a big surprise to see the young art scene propose this naked woman surrounded by men in costumes during a picnic.
The exhibition was first presented in Sète then toured many galleries around the world. 25 years after its presentation, the exhibition is still in demand. The entire collection can be discovered by appointment at the Reservoir in Sète.
His poster, created by Hervé Di Rosa who has made several interpretations of this theme, gives us the exhaustive list of artists who dared to confront Manet's famous canvas!
