OFFICINE DELL’IMMAGINE HALIDA BOUGHRIET   « Out of Place » May 16 – July 13, 2019 http://www.officinedellimmagine.com   From 16th May to 13th July 2019, Officine dell’Immagine in Milan is pleased to present the second solo exhibition dedicated to Halida Boughriet, one of the most interesting artists of the emerging contemporary scene. Curated by Silvia Cirelli, the exhibition Out of Place will present recent work by this talented artist in an Italian exclusive. Already recognised internationally for exhibitions at Centre Pompidou and Institut du Monde Arabe in Paris, the Rabat Biennale, the Los Angeles Depart Foundation, Documenta 14 and the 11th Dak’Art Biennial, Boughriet is surprising for her rare expressive eclecticism, ranging from photography to video and performance, in which she herself becomes the spokesperson for the artistic message. Always attentive to the exploration of socio-cultural, behavioural and geopolitical themes concerning current cultural situation, Boughriet translates the precariousness of a historical moment marked by a sense of uprooting, an absence of communication between people and by the need for belonging. Coming to authentic emotional essentiality and completely laying bare human vulnerabilities, this young artist’s narrative sees the body as the focal point of the entire creative journey. With the spasmodic urgency of […]

The body should be an untouchable personal zone. But power structures of a governmental or religious nature as well as certain social notions do restrict this right. In particular, women of the so called Near and Middle East are struggling for this right. However the undifferentiated, fragmentary idea of the subordinated, voiceless woman in the hijab, who has to be freed by external forces – an idea very prominent in the West – represents a false role as well. Per se it denies the individual self-determination of the many different women in the aforementioned region – just like some of the governmental or religious institutions in charge. Art is a field where – more or less safely – anyone can exercise this right on the own body. In Vienna the use of the body as artistic medium is prominent due to the Viennese Actionism, the works of Austrian artist VALIE EXPORT and the feminist avantgarde of the 70s, most of whom explored the medium of video. The central starting point […]

Persona grata Du 16 octobre 2018 au 20 janvier 2019 Le Musée d’art contemporain du Val-de-Marne et le Musée national de l’histoire de l’immigration proposent une exposition en deux lieux qui interroge la notion d’hospitalité à travers le prisme de la création contemporaine. Comment les artistes d’aujourd’hui évoquent-ils l’exil et l’hospitalité ? À l’heure où les débats sur la crise et l’accueil des migrants sont particulièrement présents et brûlants, il a semblé important de ré-interroger le sens de l’hospitalité dans nos sociétés en s’appuyant sur les travaux de Fabienne Brugère et Guillaume le Blanc. Partant des analyses des deux philosophes, la notion d’hospitalité sera abordée à travers la création contemporaine. Loin du documentaire et de la photographie de reportage, photos, vidéos, peintures, installations et sculptures invitent le visiteur « à passer d’une posture de regard à une réflexion sur l’exil, l’hospitalité et le rejet » (Isabelle Renard). Les œuvres proviennent en majorité des collections des deux musées partenaires.
