Life
Cécile Bart enrolled in the École des Beaux-Arts of Dijon in September 1982, where she met French conceptual artist Sylvia Bossu. For her early work, she projected light on transparent sailing screens. The vocabulary of Cécile Bart is projection of color in places, transparent screens that receive and diffuse the light, with the visitor being part of the devices. Her works are created according to the space in which they are presented. She uses as a manufacturing process a veil of Tergal that takes on a color with a brush. Depending on the number of layers, the color increases in intensity and becomes material. The veil is then stretched on an aluminum frame. For Musée d'Art Contemporain du Val-de-Marne, she offered five color elements with as many frames. The visitor fits in the frame, so in the painting, and becomes surface that receives the color. In 2004, Cécile Bart used fabric, for ''Toros, Lisses and Coulisses'', sort of curtains alternating between open and closed. She also used the projection of films or photos. In 2017, Cécile Bart offered ''silent show'' at the Centre de création contemporaine Olivier Debré. This time, she used for this installation, painting, cinema and dance. Dance sequences were projected on nine screens. The exhibition was silent. The bodies of the visitors mingle with the projected bodies. The image is split and set in motion. Here, the room is plunged into darkness. As in the previous works by Cécile Bart, natural light played an important role.Public collections
