This sixth edition is one of resilience. A resilience built around multiple new projects and a cutting edge curatorial vision. This year we are proud to present our first ART BOOK produced with the support of our partner 35°Nord. Against the flow of time inspired by Birago Diop’s memoir (Présence Africaine), is a poetic invitation to rethink temporality after the slowing down of time and the constraint of waiting that we’ve experienced this past year. Three authors, Julie Crenn, Dénètem Touam Bona and Armelle Dakouo address this theme through the work of seventeen artists and their relationship to time and the imprint it leaves in their artistic creation.
