This colouring book is based on 24 works by Claude Closky, artist and head of the Beaux-Arts de Paris studio since 2005.

 

Born in 1963, Claude Closky observes, reclassifies, combines, accumulates, cuts out, assembles, glues, draws, photographs... the infraordinary.

 

From the simplest drawings - made with a biro and a sheet of paper - to video, photography, collage, painting or audio supports, but also publishing or websites, it is with a great eclecticism of means that he creates shifts and grips the mechanisms that are too well oiled.

For reasons beyond our control, we are obliged to cancel the event Penser le Présent with Achille Mbembe scheduled for this evening at 7pm.

We are sincerely sorry for this, thank you for your understanding.

Beaux-Arts de Paris

 


 

Making community.

A graduate of the Beaux-Arts de Paris and the Glasgow School of Art, Thu Van Tran was born in 1979 in Ho Chi Minh City and fled with her family to France in 1981. Marked by this exile, the artist has created a body of work that includes photographs, drawings, films, sculptures and installations that she brings together in situ to form a grand narrative that raises questions about our ability to remember the history, rituals and legacies of countries and nations.

Dance and visual arts

 

Paris-based Americans, Gerard & Kelly have been collaborating since 2003 on performance, video and installation, among other formats. Having studied visual arts, literature and gender studies, Gerard and Kelly use conceptual strategies in art and dance to address broader themes of memory, history, sexuality and identity. Their reflections are often embedded in a particular architectural space, engaging the socio-cultural and political antecedents of the site in their work.

 

Screening of short films by six student artists or graduates of the School: Théo Audoire and Lova Karlson, Emma Boudon, Julie Coulon, Isabella Hin, Valentin Pinet.
