BACSAC®
designed by: Godefroy de Virieu +
Virgile Desurmont + Louis de Fleurieu

BACSAC® was created between designer Godefroy de Virieu and landscapers Virgile Desurmont and Louis de Fleurieu. Together, they looked for an alternative solution to get round the constraints of the creation of a roof garden in town: difficulties of transportation,  excessive weight, but also a lack of choice of containers, most of which are often very expensive. How can we reverse the tendency to pay more for the container than the contents? How can we make mobile an installation which is often fixed because of its weight and its rigidity? How can we create a planted area at the lowest cost?

The idea of planting in bags came from this desire to change habits and valorize
what it should be, the plant!

Manufacturing bags in a permeable geotextile to prevent asphyxiation of the soil..

The flexible material easily allows to mutiply the modules, to imagine the creation of real seasonal collection of bags, varying not only with the forms but also with the colors.

It’s a new generation of flexible plant containers. Its double-walled geotextile fabric, 100% recyclable, maintains the necessary balance between air, soil and water. Frost and sun resistant as wellas suitable for all environments.

Flatbed Press in an exhibition at the Austin Museum of Art
Flatbed Press receives well-deserved attention for its contributions to printmaking at the Austin Museum of Art through February 12

“Advancing Tradition: 20 Years of Printmaking at Flatbed Press,” in respect of a distinguished printmaking workshop in Austin, is a timely event to show the significance of  this medium in a more affordable price range, of course depending on the reputation of the artist, matching paintings in creative aesthetics and technical skill.

James Surls,  ”Night Vision,” 1990, woodcut, 40 x 77 inches

The exhibition at AMOA is comprised of two parts in order for the public to fully appreciate Flatbed’s contributions and the artists who have made prints at this press during the past 20 years. It starts its national tour here and consists of fifty original prints created at Flatbed Press. In the second part, Collections Selections shows works in other media by several of the Flatbed artists drawn from the Museum’s collection installed next to that artist’s print to experience how it compares and contrasts with its original creation. A selection of tools and print matrices are exhibited alongside the prints in an effort to make the echnical aspects of printmaking more accessible.
