In the biological world, molecules such as cells and living beings happily play with each other. Supported by each other, they innovate, interact and transform the planet. Nested genes, microbial scaffolding, partnerships between organisms, evolution has always been a matter of interlocking networks. Could interference between microorganisms and our own biology explain the phenomenon of ageing?  We will approach this question from an interspecific angle, with the prospect of possible biotechnological hybridisations.

Political self-defence. Professor of contemporary political philosophy, Elsa Dorlin works on another history of bodies through the genealogy of modern power relations. Pursuing her reflection on the complexity of the mechanics of domination, sexism, racism and capitalism, her thinking is as close as possible to the resistances seized at the level of the flesh, the muscles and the senses.

 

In dialogue with Madeleine Planeix-Crocker and Fabrice Bourlez, coordinators of the Troubles, Dissidence and Aesthetics Chair.

 

A roundtable discussion in the context of the exhibition Les professeurs gribouillent aussi... and on the occasion of Printemps du dessin 2023. 
The aim is to explore the conditions of appearance of the work, those that the artist chooses and those that escape his control, to evoke the place of chance, the environment, the unconscious in the creative process and the art of doodling.
In the presence of the artists: Hicham Berrada, Pierre Buraglio, Gilgian Gelzer, Frédérique Loutz, Bernard Moninot, Valérie Sonnier and Nathalie Talec.
