Un chef-d’œuvre d’Otto Dix prend vive dans la nouvelle saison d’« À Musée Vous, À Musée Moi »
The popular web series "À Musée Vous, À Musée Moi" has returned for a new season focusing on Otto Dix’s 1926 masterpiece, "Portrait of the Journalist Sylvia von Harden." Created by Fouzia Kechkech and co-produced by the Centre Pompidou and Dada Media, the series uses short, humorous live-action sketches to bring iconic paintings to life. In these episodes, actress Isabelle Desplantes portrays Von Harden, navigating anachronistic situations—such as dealing with social media trolls—while providing historical context about the New Objectivity movement and the "New Woman" of the Weimar Republic.
This collaboration highlights a growing trend of major institutions using digital storytelling and humor to engage younger audiences with art history. By humanizing the subjects of famous works and placing them in contemporary scenarios, the Centre Pompidou lowers the barrier to entry for classical avant-garde art. The project specifically celebrates the centenary of Dix's portrait, ensuring that both the artist's legacy and the identity of his once-forgotten muse remain relevant in the digital age.
