Soirée Performances – Quatre balais d’avant-garde

Anna Byskov works in the fields of performance, sculpture, video, and writing. Her work explores failure and dysfunction as indicators of how our contemporary Western societies are organized and function.
Gwendal Coulon’s works are never truly intended to be cynical or deceptive; on the contrary, they tend to reveal certain conventions of artistic practice. Through shifts in meaning, references, and appropriations, he subverts the conditions of the pictorial act and the visibility of painting while infusing them with poetic elements. In his films and performances, Clément Courgeon takes on the roles of various iconic figures from popular culture; he mixes and blends images, actions, and references to examine the mechanisms and stereotypes that govern our societies.
