Les Péchés Capitaux / The Deadly Sins, Centre Georges Pompidou (Book) by Didier Ottinger, Germain Viatte, Michel Onfray. Very good condition. 56 pages. French text. Soft cover, small format.
Art that explores the darkest areas of consciousness, focusing on images of excess and transgression, reconnects with its ancient cathartic virtue. By bringing together works from the Musée National d’Art Moderne and enlisting writers and essayists under the banner of laziness or lust, The Deadly Sins adds a resolutely contemporary element to the already extensive collection of the maliciously intertwined relationships between art and immorality.
In this book, the first of a seven-volume series, Didier Ottinger, curator of the exhibition, examines the genealogy of a modern art devoted to “evil,” as analyzed by André Malraux and Georges Bataille. This text presents the literary variations that have given rise to the apologetic genre of sin, from Eugène Sue to Jean Giraudoux. Michel Onfray analyzes the relationships established in the 20th century between art and morality.
