This international colloquium, organized by the ENS and the École du Louvre and Beaux-Arts de Paris, aims to renew the discourse on idleness in art, taking as its object all the artistic forms of idleness (voluntary but also, sometimes, suffered) from the mid-1940s to the present day, also questioning the refusal to make work and anti-productivist strategies.
