The 38th edition of EVA International connects the narrative futures of early twentieth century Ireland with the sexual and identity politics of the present day. The exhibition takes its starting point from the painting Night Candles are Burnt Out (1927) by Irish artist Sean Keating, which presents an allegory of the Irish psyche at the advent of the construction of Ardnacrusha – a hydroelectric dam, built that same year on the border of County Limerick.

Comment les artistes interrogent-ils l’histoire et comment l’oeuvre se constitue-elle entre démarche artistique et archive ?

A beast, a god and a line is woven by connections and circulations of ideas across a geography with Bengal at its core. Commonly called Asia-Pacific, it could also be defined by several other definitions, which the exhibition will explore and untangle. Overlapping and sometimes conflicting or barely discernible beneath the strident layers of contemporaneity and the modern waves of destruction, these worlds are still the pillars of a region that is going through a process of replacing its colonial cartographic coordinates, a process this exhibition proudly serves.
La Fondation Clément s’est associée à la Fondation Dapper pour ouvrir ses portes à l’exceptionnelle créativité d’artistes qui, hier comme aujourd’hui, témoignent de la richesse d’une Afrique plurielle. Jamais la Martinique, ni même plus largement la Caraïbe, n’ont auparavant accueilli une manifestation de ce type et de cette envergure.

L’exposition associe des artistes confirmés et émergents, aux origines, formations et générations différentes, pour une multiplicité de points de vue, offrant un aperçu de la complexité et de la multiplicité des expériences de la géographie.
Une exposition imaginêe par Sonia Recasens
50 Golborne is delighted to present Echoes & Figures, the first solo exhibition in the UK of Madagascar-born, Paris-based artist and photographer Malala Andrialavidrazana.
The show features a selection of photographs by Andrialavidrazana from the Echoes and Figures series. This is a debut for the artist, who takes particular concern to show her work in different combinations. Mixing the large formats of the spectacular Figures compositions with the smaller and more intimate Echoes still-lifes, the artist underscores her concern with cross-culturalism and the sociological, economic and political constructions that attempt to contradict it. She expresses these concerns through narratives that address both global considerations and the private space.
The exhibition “Figures” features 7 artworks from the namesake series in which the artist explores the theme of the map used as a colonialist power tool combining them with references borrowed from various spheres of visual culture: bills, stamps and numerous iconographic models inspired by universal as well as local themes.
Of Decolonize This at the Karachi Biennale 2017, Dominique Malaquais writes: “[The thematic is based on] a series of short excerpts from texts that move us, we propose a voyage through the practice of five artists changing the face of contemporary reflection on (post)colonialism, (neo)coloniality and the quest for a decolonial future:
Malala Andrialavidrazana, Marius Dansou
Infatigable voyageuse, l’artiste Malala Andrialavidrazana s’est également formée à l’architecture. Ses recherches portent sur les notions de frontières et d'interactions interculturelles. En une succession d'allers-retours entre espaces privés et problématiques mondiales, l’artiste explore les différentes imageries sociales par le biais d’un travail anthropologique ouvrant sur une multitude d’histoires. out en s'inspirant des archives photographiques du grand photographe nigérian Ojeikere et d’archives familiales, Marius Dansou réalise, dans du fer à béton, des coiffes majestueuses dont il cherche à décoder les messages.
