Multidisciplinary
True to its vocation of promoting contemporary creation, driven by the desire to raise public awareness of the visual arts and to encourage the emergence of new collectors,association Carré sur Seine continues the Écoutez-Voir cycles.
Each month, in Boulogne-Billancourt or by videoconference, these meetings-projections with today's artists are unique moments of sharing. Écoutez-Voir is an opportunity to approach the work of artists in an original way, to discover the secrets of their approach and to question the elements of their work.
All artistic disciplines are covered, from painting to video, including sculpture, installations and photography. A great opportunity for artistic investigation, real moments of sharing and dialogue between artists, collectors and members of Carré sur Seine !
At the end of the conference cycle, the Jury of the Ecoutez-Voir Prize, composed of the members of Carré sur Seine, will choose a winning artist who will receive the Ecoutez-Voir Prize, accompanied by an endowment of 2,000 euros.
This April 2022, for our last Ecoutez-Voir session of the year, the meeting is organised at the home of our dear expert Alain-Dominique Gallizia!
See you at La Ruche du Tag on Monday 11 April!

Marion Ancelme
-visual artist
Marion Ancelme is a visual artist whose work questions the influence of the environment on our human, social and cultural condition. Her creative process is triggered by movement, change and loss of reference points. This creativity will be found in her numerous journeys during which she will try to go beyond her comfort zone. Marion will thus confront the unknown at every moment of her creative process. She will let herself be crossed by the things that happen to her and challenge herself.
She feels the need to transform the relationships between things in order to influence their destiny. This is how she creates and brings into existence chimerical beings, half-man half-bird, a way of escaping her condition. A way to change what seems to be determined.
So Marion Ancelme is a healing artist. She repairs, displaces, liberates and weaves links between the elements she collects. She questions the human condition specific to each of us and our capacity to broaden our perspectives of the future. Marion is a weaver/collector. She shapes the destiny of the elements on which her gaze lingers. Even if their destiny seems to be fixed, she transforms them and brings them to something else. Ultimately, Marion Ancelme's work questions the way in which our condition attaches us to the world and the way in which we could get rid of it.
Samuel Féron
-photography-
Samuel has been photographing nature for 20 years, with a predilection for the most remote, desert, burning or icy corners, where man's place is at best precarious, if not impossible.
This is how he went to meet the giant red dunes of Namibia, the cloud forests of Costa Rica, the fury of the Kilauea lava in Hawaii. He has photographed the multicoloured lagoons of the Bolivian Altiplano perched at an altitude of 5,000 m, crossed the desert immensities of the Atacama bordered by fire-breathing giants, approached the pure acid lakes of Indonesia. He has travelled through the Ethiopian landscape on the border with Eritrea, where the earth's crust is so thin that magma emerges in bubbling lakes, immersed himself in the granite mountains of China, its karst peaks as sharp as needles, criss-crossed the multiple plateaus of North Vietnam, climbed the explosive colossi of Kamchatka.
Alexander Zhu
-drawing-
Alexandre Zhu, of Chinese origin, was born in Paris in 1993. His childhood was divided between Shanghai and Paris. He studied at the School of Visual Art in New York (Fine Art) and graduated in 2018 from ENSAD.
In an era of rapid change, increasing mobility and globalisation, Alexandre Zhu's work is based on an observation of this ever-changing environment.
Influenced by the massive transformation of Shanghai, from which his family originates, his work questions non-places, anonymous and standardised landscapes. He is interested in the physical manifestations of the progressive standardization of cities, such as architectural rejects or construction machinery, evocative of the issues of a globalized society and the underlying problems. Influenced by Romanticism and fascinated by ancient ruins, his projects draw on various references: brutalist architecture, standardised environments, science fiction novels, press images, etc.
His work is characterised by an essential practice of charcoal drawing. Through a preliminary process of photographic sampling and archiving, his figurative drawings, sometimes bordering on abstraction, divert the real by transforming the image. His practice has an attraction for the material, where surfaces are worked by erasing in several layers.
