un signe dans l'espace refers to a story in Cosmicomics by Italo Calvino. This story explores how signs can be unreliable and meaningless by constantly creating paradoxes: the ‘idea of sign making’ paradox, the omnipotence paradox and the ‘existence of space’ paradox. The exhibition gathers the works of 8 artists around the paradoxical aspects of the idea of spatial fantasy. A publication was realized by primitive for the occasion. It merges the research documents of each artist. It is thus an extrapolation of the exhibition rather than a catalog.
