Carrousel du Louvre

Curatorial Vision — Invisibility

This exhibition explores what is present without being immediately seen. 

Invisibility invites artists to consider the subtle forces that shape perception: 
what slips past the eye, what lingers beneath form, what is felt before it is named. 

At the Carrousel du Louvre — a place of movement, circulation, and encounter — artworks appear briefly, meet the public, and continue on their way. Here, invisibility is not absence, but potential: a trace, a suggestion, a quiet tension between what is shown and what remains implicit. 

The theme is intentionally open. Invisibility may appear as: 

• a fleeting gesture 
• a hidden structure 
• an emotional undercurrent
• a landscape beyond scale 
• a body partially revealed 
• a trace, a blur, a rhythm, a pause 

Artists may approach invisibility through abstraction or figuration, landscape or body, light or material, realism or imagination. 

Invisibility welcomes works that: 

• explore perception, atmosphere, or the unseen 

• reveal hidden structures, gestures, or emotions 

• suggest presence through absence, blur, distance, or silence 

• invite the viewer to look again, rather than consume quickly 

This exhibition does not seek a single interpretation. 
It offers a shared space where diverse artistic languages meet a broad public — allowing meaning to emerge through encounter.
