description

Carré sur Seine is pleased to invite you to a guided tour of the exhibition Bonsoir Mémoire . This is the first exhibition to come out of residency in the Villa Dufraine┃Académie des beaux-arts program.
Jean-Michel Othoniel, Director of the Villa Dufraine since September 22, 2021, wanted to propose an original residency model for this venue, in keeping with the spirit and geographical location of the Villa. Each year, the program will welcome a collective of no more than ten artists and a curator to work on an exhibition project.

The Villa Dufraine is a work in progress and will continue to evolve over the next few years, but for this first edition we needed a new idea for this revisited residency.
It was the importance of the collective, so prevalent among young artists today, that encouraged me to develop a program aimed at an innovative exhibition, one built by the residents themselves over the course of their eight-month stay on site.
Françoise Docquiert, correspondent for the sculpture section at the Académie des Beaux-Arts, is assisting me in monitoring this program. [...]

Lou-Justin Tailhades explores the importance of language and memory in today's creation, and brings together 8 artists (Maxime Bagni, Sarah Konté, Hatice Pinarbaşi, Jordan RogerPierre-Alexandre Savriacouty, Christophe Tabet, Mathilde Rossello Rochet, Halveig Villand). With equal paritý, they express themselves through multiple mediums including painting, sculpture, photography, embroidery, video or performance. This exhibition project, rich in proposals, also called for the presence in residence of a graphic designer, Agathe Bourrée, in response to the desire of the curator and the artists to develop and adjust the future exhibition catalog to the creative rhythms of the works.
