muSée De la ffTexhibitionsnine years after it first opened, the museum of thefrench Tennis federation is showing off its new lookon the occasion of this year’s french open, with abrand new permanent exhibition housing forty objectsshown to the public for the first time. Three exceptionalshows are opening alongside these “StorieS of Tennis”:“hervé di rosa”,“invitation on a journey”, as well as the “Crazy racquets!”created by jean-Philippe Bertrand.The permanent exhibition: “StorieS of Tennis”The Museum of the French Tennis Federation boasts a new look for thestart of the 2012 tournament. Nine years after its inauguration, it will housethree new shows, and will open its newly designed permanent exhibitionarea, filled with objects which the public will take great delight in seeingfor the first time. It is these “StorieS of Tennis” which adorn this new, 270m²area, bound to be an emotional journey for all: the story behind MajorWingfield, the inventor of tennis, and whose tennis kit largely contributedto the implantation of the game in France; the history of Roland Garros,the aviator whose name was given to a stadium which would become oneof the most famous and prestigious in the world; also, the story of theFrench Open trophies, and in particular, the Musketeers’ Cup, the PierreGillou Cup – which was the trophy awarded to the men’s singles championsbefore the Musketeers’ Cup came about –, the Suzanne-Lenglen Cup orstill the Jacques-Brugnon Cup. They have all been brought together andplaced near a screen on the wall, on which footage illustrating the mostmemorable pages of the tournament’s history is projected.The game of tennis and the French Open tournament will be exhibitedchronologically, from one display case to the next, filled familiar facesand the objects that marked their careers, from the jeu de paume toRafael Nadal, and including Björn Borg, Yannick Noah, Steffi Graf or stillAndre Agassi. The other important events such as Davis Cup, Fed Cup,the Olympics, as well as the three other Grand Slam tournaments, areof course included. In particular, the Museum will present a cross-sectionof each of the four majors, bringing together the technical aspects of thegame with the emotion felt by the visitors.126 | Roland-Garros 2012


muSée De la ffTNumerous emblematic objects have been collected, including Fanti’s Tree– the trophy awarded to the BNP Paribas Masters champions from 1991to 2006 – ; an original painting by Andy Warhol of Chris Evert, seven-timewinner of the women’s singles at the French Open; the propeller fromRoland Garros’ plane; a Suzanne Lenglen doll from the 1920s, made ofiron thread, silk, tulle and cotton by the Countess Rita de Maugny; oneof the fi rst tickets used at the French Open, from 1928; the front page ofthe newspaper “L’Equipe” from June 6th, 1983, the day after Yannick Noahwon on the Parisian clay; outfits worn by Björn Borg or Françoise Dürr; orstill, objects representative of the French art of living which are an integralpart of the scenery within the stadium during the tournament (panama,hand-fans etc…).This new permanent exhibit also takes a look toward the future, focusing on themodernization of Roland-Garros stadium, a unique and unmatchable jewel.the temPOrarY eXhiBitshervé di rosaCreator of this 82nd French Open tournament poster, Hervé Di Rosa isoneof the pioneers of “figuration libre”. Born in Sète, France, in 1959, hestartedhis artistic journey at the end of the 1970s, fi rst in Paris, wherehe attendedArts Déco, then in New York, where he became involved inthe world ofgraffiti and street art thanks to several different encounters.His universeis varied (rock, comic strips, etc.). At the end of the 1980s,he decided totake a trip around the world. At each step along the way,he painted “inthe style of” and according to the inspiration of whereverhe happened tobe. Bulgaria, Ghana, Mexico, Vietnam or still Cuba andSouth Africa – allwere a part of his journey. Amongst his works, inevitablyof very differentworlds, approximately fifteen are on exhibit. They willbe shown from thebeginning of the tournament at the Museum of theFrench Tennis Federation.The tournament poster will also be highlighted. The original painting willbe on display, accompanied by a new fi lm, inviting visitors to discoverthe work of the artist.Roland-Garros 2012 | 127


muSée De la ffT“invitation on a journey”Triumphant at the end of the 19th century, reflection of an era, tourismposters have evolved with styles and with the decades. From the Northerncoast to the Riviera, from inland to the Atlantic coastline, whether in Brittanyor in Normandy, the Museum of the French Tennis Federation will houseapproximately fifty posters, on exhibit from the start of the tournament,and ten of which are of large format, having marked their era. All havesomething in common: the systematic presence of the game of tennis,whether it is the courts, the balls or the racquets, the recurring theme wasused to promote seaside resorts, spas or health resorts.Transformed into a giant map of France, the big exhibition hall at theMuseum regroups important works of some of the most well-known artistsof the discipline: René Péan, André Galland, Roger Broders, Léon Benigni,Géache or still Cassandre.Tourism posters from the belle époque all have their own esthetic codes.Stylized title blocks and very visible lettering reinforce images andinformation. Landscapes of the regions are celebrated in these very loyalreproductions, or natives in traditional outfits who are often representedin the forefront. This preconceived idea of strong and identifi able imagesparticipated in the elaboration of cultural tourism, oriented towards thehabits and traditions of the French over the years.From the departure halls where railroad station posters were broughttogether, the fi rst of their kind in the 19th century, to the Côte d’Azur oreven over the borders, this “invitation on a journey” will draw everyoneinto this world…sometimes pure in style, often colorful, whether art decoor contemporary. The graphics and the colors used for the exhibition arein the spirit of the works of Cassandre, one of the masters of the genre,whereas the descriptions accompanying the different works are recreationsof old baggage tags.Near the posters, three screens present slideshows of post cards whichhave as theme the “sea”, “inland”, and “beyond boundaries”.128 | Roland-Garros 2012


muSée De la ffT“Crazy racquets!” by Jean-Philippe BertrandSince the jeu de paume, the racquet is an object of constant research.Whether they are made of fi ber or of wood, laminated or intelligent,racquets trigger and follow technological evolution. But sometimes,some of those racquets never make it to the courts and live an entirelydifferent existence. Whether a passing reference, humoristic or poetic,the “crazy racquets’” are fragments of a philosophy of life… that of Jean-Philippe Bertrand. A multifaceted artist, halfway between Arman andMarcel Duchamp, he amuses himself with form, where rhyme and playon words take shape in these deflected racquets. Approximately twentymodels will be shown in the exhibit honoring his work, which is open tothe public from the beginning of the tournament. And the racquet is clearlythe star of the show. Contrary to those used on the courts starting May27th, Jean-Philippe Bertrand’s racquets have strings that move, framesthat bend, handles that turn… Depending on the imagination of the artist,the racquet comes alive. Autonomous, it carries a message which incitesreflection, provokes a smile or whispers a poem in the ears of the visitor.uSeful infoRmaTionmuseum of the french Tennis federationRoland-Garros Stadium, 2 avenue Gordon-Bennett, 75016 Paris.information by phone: 01 47 43 48 48 or on the websitewww.fft.fr/roland-garros/musee/informations-pratiquesDuring the french open, the museum is accessible only to tournamentticket holders from 10 am until 7 pm(except during exceptional closings communicated at the welcome desk).free access with your badge.129 | Roland-Garros 2012
