"Magiciens de la terre. Retour sur une exposition légendaire": a look back at a legendary exhibition in order to read and understand how this ground-breaking exhibition revolutionised the art scene.

The exhibition of archives and documents presented by the Centre Pompidou for the 25th anniversary of "Magiciens de la terre" aims to position the exhibition presented at the Centre Pompidou and the Parc de la Villette in 1989 as an inaugural event, as demonstrated by its abundant sources in all their visual and intellectual variety. At the very beginning of a globalisation not yet acknowledged as such, through its unprecedented invitation to contemporary artists from every continent, sometimes from "invisible cultures (Africa, Asia and Oceania), the exhibition can now be seen as a seminal moment in the globalising of contemporary art.
