In 1936, Marie Laurencin paints the table repetition. At first glance, Nothing is distinguished from a agreed genre scene. A group of young women is assembled; One holds a booklet for singing, Another a guitar for music, Another still sketches a dance step, While the other two watch them. Without looking at it, This painting is nothing less than a reformulation of the Demoiselles of Avignon de Pablo Picasso, One of the inaugural works of modernism: the same curtain that opens one of the models, same number of female figures in a pyramidal composition, Same chromatic rhythms - a dog replacing a still life in the foreground. Except that, Far from multiplying heterogeneities, The whole table is marked by a repetition principle. Rehearsal is not only the subject of the painting (a rehearsal as it takes for a show to be successful), She is also her method, embodied by the fact that all faces are identical - a repetition in repetition.
