脌 partir d'elle. Des artistes et leur m猫re
Le Bal presents an exhibition dedicated to the perspectives of 25 artists on their mothers.
The selected body of works, spanning from the 1960s to the present day, revisits the works of artists such as sophie calle, christian boltanski, michel journiac, anri sala, and lebohang kganye. Going beyond the mere testimony of an inevitably unique intimate relationship, these works are constructed using formal and conceptual devices that involve the body, figure, or character of the mother in the creative process. Whether they seek to embody the reality of presence or the effects of absence, they all share a common thread in considering filiation as a way to rethink archetypal relationships, encompassing social critique, self-exploration, conjuration, or solace.
