Work exhibited at: -Bob Van Orsouw Gallery, "Silvie Fleury", Zurich 1993. -Musée d'Art Moderne et Contemporain de Genève, "Silvie Fleury.

Measurements: 21 x 21 x 11 cm; 50 x 46 cm (methacrylate urn). Sylvie Fleury is best known for her installations. She first appeared in the nineties with her series "Shopping Bags", a collection of bags from luxury boutiques through which she posed the relationship between art and fashion, positioning herself against the dominant and superfluous consumption that floods our society. Currently, his art integrates the fashion industry, cosmetics and luxury American cars (symbol and cliché of an American life, but also a commonly imported vehicle in Switzerland), and uses the marketing system to create an attractive and visual work. With his work "Curlers," Fleury focuses on superficial beauty, substituting the subject (the absent face) for the object (curlers). On one occasion Fleury stated "I show things as they are. And in this way, I also expose the instruments and mechanisms that make them what they are", a statement that allows us to understand the artist's artistic thinking. Many of Silvie Fleury's works can be found in important international institutions, such as the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Centre for Art and Media in Karlshure, the Museum der Moderne, the Museum Villa Stuck or the MACBA in Barcelona.

[HELVÉTIUS (Claude Adrien)]. De l'Esprit. Paris, Durand, 1758. In-4 of (1) ff. xxii-643-(1) pp. red morocco, ornate ribbed spine, green mar. title page, triple gilt fillet framing the boards, gilt edges (period binding). Rubbed and scratched, binding re-tinted and restored. Paper slightly browned in places, scattered foxing, pink stain in margin of first pages. Without the portrait of Peter II, King of Portugal, which is sometimes added to some copies. First edition. Hardback copy. "First edition of this famous work, censured by the Sorbonne as containing 'all the poisons scattered in the various modern books', i.e. contemporary [...] The work, dedicated to the royal family, was rejected by the latter, and on August 10, a few days after publication, the privilege, given on May 12, was revoked. In spite of the Lettre au révérend père... [Berthier ou Pleix] which constitutes an apology and a retraction, followed by another more explicit retraction, the book was censured by the clergy [...] Helvétius then submitted a third to Joly de Fleury, avocat général, on January 22, 1759; on the 31st appeared the letter from the Pope, and on April 9 the censure from the Faculté de Théologie. Fleury had already issued his requisitions on January 23, while sparing the author himself, and on February 6, 1759, the Parlement handed down its judgment; the book was burned on the 10th. Helvetius resigned as maître d'hôtel dela rine; the censor resigned. Helvetius made these retractions out of friendship for his censor Texier, who had had a lot of trouble with him. This retraction is found attached to some copies. These copies feature Cartons on pages 1-16, 35-38, 59-62, 67-70, 75-78, 139-142, 145-54, 159-160, 169-176, 187-190, 227-230, 233-234, 239-240, 459-462, 545-550, 603-606. These corrections, considerable at the time, no longer seem so moving; time and events have passed. Helvetius had copies printed for his friends. [...]" (Tchemerzine VI 188-189). "One cannot see without indignation that one persecutes with this continuous relentlessness a book that this persecution alone can make dangerous by making the reader search for the hidden venom that one supposes in it", Voltaire, Letter to Thieriot, February 7, 1759. Corr. D8086. "No one has the right over the air I breathe, nor over the noblest function of my mind, that of judging for myself." Claude Adrien Helvétius (1715-1771). Early, carefully written handwritten notes (on some boards).
