UPCOMING EXHIBITIONS
In Macbeth, Act IV, Scene 1, the second witch says, “Open the locks, whoever knocks!” With this incantation that invites the unknown, Théodore Melchior claims the permeability between worlds and urges a leap into fiction. His wooden sculptures, too, enter the stage like shady characters. Polychromatic, with abstract, indulgent, and dancing forms, they arrive accompanied by their cohort of pedestals, forming a strange, museum-like assembly. Théodore Melchior extends the narrative with texts displayed like the voice-overs of some unknown romantic knight, thus endowing his sculptures with a decidedly dramatic and human charge.
OUTDOOR
As part of the 17th Biennale de Lyon at the Grandes Locos, the artist Gözde İlkin collects the professional memories of employees who have worked on the site of the former SCNF technicenter to create a textile work and a territorial project about work and union mobilisation.
