Ricardo MOSNER "Ubuesque Mosnerian"
Until 09 December 2007 at the Galerie Lara Vincy
Under the centenary of the death of Alfred Jarry will be presented the book "King Ubu" illustrated by Ricardo Mosner at Éditions Gallimard 
In 1985, Ricardo Mosner participate in the "Bye Bye Mix" exhibition at Gallery Lara Vincy. In 1987 he shows there his sculptures and "staged" in his one-man show "Il creche." 20 years later, in the very same place, and after "1001è" (1989), "Les Pitres du Socle" (1990) and "Cabaret Mosner" (1993), Ricardo Mosner exposes its objects, his bags and in the back room, his new theater of operations under the name "Ubuesque Mosnerian"? he did not find any other title available ("title in progress" was already being used by the artist in 1990 and "Ubu Roi Ahora Mismo" was his first theatrical experience in 1968). 
Vous verrez donc sur les étagères : des plâtres fildeferrés, des pièces inanimées en conversation télépathique, des controverses boisées, las maquinas inutiles et d’autres saloperies célestes. You will therefore see on the shelves: the wireded plasters, inanimate pieces in telepathic conversation, controversy wooded, the unnecessary maquinas and other celestial filths. Drafts, cuts, the completed and the unfinished, as well as some rebel dolls will share the floor, perhaps. The thing-book, handuspainted manuscripts, logomaniac inventories and other foggy souvenirs will be knee to knee, shoulder to shoulder in displays. The year 2007 is the centenary of the death of Alfred Jarry. On this occasion, Ricardo Mosner illustrates Ubu Roi at Éditions Gallimard. The book as well as a few originals will be presented at the gallery.
