For the first time, Bernard Pagès's drawings are shown in their entirety. Pagès began by painting in Quercy, where he was born in 1940. However, he would soon abandon painting for the more perilous terrain of sculpture. And it was as a sculptor that the practice of paper would continue to impose itself on him. As a sculptor, he would love and mistreat paper. Paper that he never ceased to experiment with, trusting in the sculptor's repertoire that he had invented for himself, in the infinite possibilities of materials, always unknown, or even in chance and the gathering of objects in the world to which he was attentive.
