“Chère Melpomène,
We call to you, the ancient muse of tragedy, who once reigned at the back of the Palais des Beaux-Arts. Once a towering statue, several meters high, you have now become a ruin. From the residue of your dust, we seel to transcend the archetype of the muse and evoke a fresh, nuanced breath, able to seep into the interstices of established orders. In between inspiration and expiration, between what is spoken and what remains silent, this breath embodies our deepest desire for social justice.”


To coincide with the publication of issue no. 9 of Transbordeur. Photographie histoire société, which focuses on “Algorithmic Images”, and the exhibition “Le monde selon l'AI”, which opens at Jeu de Paume in April, Christian Joschke talks to Antonio Somaini and Ada Ackerman, curators of the exhibition. 

As part of a partnership, POUSH welcomes 12 young artists graduating from Beaux-Arts de Paris as part of the Vie Professionnelle post-graduate program. 

From February to April 2025, these artists will benefit from a shared workspace of over 200 m² to develop their research and productions. This residency, supported by the French Ministry of Culture via the CulturePro program, will also help them find employment. The 12 graduates are coached throughout the year by Anne-Laure Peressin and Elsa Vettier.
