Aujourd’hui, avec @abf1, nous aurions dû début

Aujourd’hui, avec @abf1, nous aurions dû débuter une semaine de résidence sur l’île de Wrac’h, dans le Finistère. L’association IPPA devait nous accueillir dans la maison-phare de l’île. Nous devions y poursuivre nos recherches autour de notre projet L’archipel des sentinelles avant de retourner le mettre en forme à Rochefort. Nous y aurions été bien confinés. En attendant de pouvoir reporter notre escale, nous essayerons cette semaine d’y travailler à distance. Sans vue, sans iode, sans phare et sans algue. #résidenceconfinée #aroomwithaview #artisteenrésidence #virtualtrip #keepworking #restezchezvous #confinementcreatif

#comingsoonEn résidence d’écriture @castelcoucou à #forbach, je détricote des histoires de lignes vertes, de frontières administratives et imaginaires, de fortifications fleuries, de clôtures plus ou moins naturelles et de murs parfois végétaux. Un retour en pays natal à la recherche des formes de résilience des végétaux sur les ruines des paysages militaires. J’herborise les lignes de front, lignes de défense, lignes de démarcation, changeantes, abandonnées, réactivées, oubliées, camouflées ou épineuses. #newproject #staytuned〰️ Opuntia, plante-barbelé, recherches photographiques, 2020#livreaparaitre #ongoingresearch #artcontemporain #🌵 #écritureencours #border

Le catalogue du Prix d’art Robert Schuman 2019, sorti le 14 décembre dernier, publie un très beau texte de Marc Aufraise qui présente les deux pièces que j’ai exposé. Il vous reste une semaine pour aller voir l’expo @cerclecite et @villavauban à #luxembourg et découvrir l’édition...#pars2019 #prixrobertschuman #newbook

J’aurais le plaisir de présenter ma performance

J’aurais le plaisir de présenter ma performance 7,62 au @cerclecite le 11 janvier 2020 à 14h30. ⠀.⠀De la boutique souvenir d’Utah Beach à un stand de tir en Ukraine, 7,62 est une enquête qui retrace l’histoire d’une munition vendue comme un souvenir du débarquement en Normandie. Cette lecture performée fait écho à l’oeuvre Atlas Bellone présentée à la Villa Vauban dans le cadre du Prix d’Art Robert Schuman 2019. #pars2019

À l’atelier. Working on Baghdadbahn project. ⠀⠀Baghdadbahn is the name of the German railway project built from 1903 to 1940 between Istanbul and Baghdad to connect Berlin with Iraq. As part of a wider imperialist and economic strategy, the goal was to get a safe way to oil. It was also a way to send back to Berlin the huge archeological pieces that were found during late XIXth century excavations in Mesopotamia. But it never happened and the railway was ironically completed by the British. If Agatha Christie was the most famous passenger of the Taurus express, that she took once a year to join her archeologist husband Max Mallowan on his excavation sites, it only ran for a few years: the train connection stopped during Saddam Hussein era and never got back on tracks. One year ago, I decided to follow back the Baghdadbahn path until the syrian border.⠀⠀Here is a selection of the books I’m using for the lecture performance, displayed with the lamassu I bought in the British museum’s giftshop where it was sold as a bookend. In the background is a photo I took in 2014 in the former Iraq embassy in Berlin - kind of where this whole project began 5 years ago. It was taken in the former library of the embassy.⠀⠀📍The siege, 78 assembled laser prints, 386 x 252 cm, 2017⠀ #exitthroughthegiftshop #souvenirs #travel #unboxing #lecture #books #photo #performance #artiststudio #alatelier #berlin #bagdad #BB2018 #trainline #workinprogress #artwork #oneyearago #contemporaryart #artcontemporain #archives

À l’atelier. ⠀⠀ 🎞 First experiment with diapositives related to souvenirs found in western museums (Louvre in Paris, British Museum in London , Pergamon, Altes & Neues museum in Berlin). Those souvenirs depict art or archeological pieces shown in their collection that have been taken in Egypt, Greece, Turkey, Syria or Iraq.⠀ Like the originals are at the same time art pieces and political matterd, they have a dual use: they look like the archeolocigal artefacts they represent and they are magnet, bookshelf, bookmark, rubber, nacklace, tray or paper stone... My photographs seek to show them in-between, with a black backgroung like art or jewellery pieces and close enough to see their imperfections *still ongoing*⠀ Here are the souvenirs from Mesopotamia that I’m using in my Baghdadbahn project. ⠀⠀#newproject #exitthroughthegiftshop #souvenir #arthistory #ancientart #museum #photo #artiststudio #workinprogress #artwork #contemporaryart #artcontemporain

The lamassu is an assyrian protective deity depicted as having a human head, the body of a bull or a lion, and bird wings. Pairs of lamassu sculptures were usually placed at both sides of entrance gates. When archeologists discovered some of them in Khorsabad, Nimrud and Ninive (Northern Iraq), they decided to send the most preserved and beautiful items to western museums. Their faces have been seen on television when Deach destroyed some of them in August 2015 in Nimrud. ⠀⠀📍The guardian, print on PVC, 220 x 90 cm⠀ #exitthroughthegiftshop #mossul #souvenirs #travel #unboxing #lecture #photo #performance #artiststudio #alatelier #berlin #bagdad #BB2018 #trainline #workinprogress #artwork #oneyearago #contemporaryart

Also two postcards of babylon’s lions from the Kunsthistorisches museum of Vienna and the Istanbul Archeology museum. While working on my lecture performance about my trip last year, I’m writing about crossing doors, borders, walls, imaginary limits and those cities that we’ve been called Orient’s gates.
