In this exhibition taking in two venues, the objects, installations, videos and notebooks of the artist La Ribot destabilize audience-performer relations. In doing so, they redefine the space and modalities of their encounter.

Se Vende, a two-part exhibition, at the Centre Pompidou and then at the Centre national de la danse, brings together videos which take a behind-the-scenes look at spectacle or the show: Mariachi 17 (2009), a kaleidoscope-like exploration of the backstage of a theatre, FILM NOIR (2014-2017), a tribute to extras, and Scène-Fiction (2014) which looks at what lies behind theatrical creation. Feeding off the protocol of museums and other such venues, the Walk the Chair (2010) installation summons up 50 chairs ready to be twisted and turned in all directions, and on which are etched quotations about movement. This performativity of language is also to be found in her notebooks, written up between 1985 and 2018, and in which notation, concept and drawing together become the foundations for writing which is a driving force in itself.

In Territoires, Mathilde Monnier will be taking over the galleries of the Centre Pompidou during the course of a weekend in order to bring us a piece that deals with memory and circulation, "a collection of gestures from her work over the past thirty years". In doing so, the choreographer sets up the possibility of playing out memory in the present, from now onwards, or by means of anticipation.

Following on from Consul and Meshie, Latifa Laâbissi and Antonia Baehr bring us a duo in the form of a series of heterogeneous sequences, interlinked by a common thread of the impure, hybridization and collage. They combine their respective vocabularies, such as the relationship with the expressiveness of the face, and the crossing of genres, registers. Over the course of different numbers or acts, Laâbissi and Baehr interweave their respective universes, thereby overturning the various choreographic codes and blurring the frontiers.

Amidst an oscillating form of virtual reality, six performers find themselves deprived of their voices and their entire beings. The whole thing goes beyond all understanding... Welcome to this new world.

Travailler la violence #4

Conference

How can we work on violence? How can we put into perspective, stage and retell it? How can we tear it to pieces? The purpose of this two day-long series of encounters, put together by the philosopher Elsa Dorlin, will be to update what critiques of violence teach us and to make an inventory of the various weapons of violence collected.

Par les villages

Theatre

Sébastien Kheroufi discovered Peter Handke's Par les villages at the onset of his artistic career. It evokes a writer's return to his native village. Amidst the twilight setting in which one universe declines in favour of another, the voices of the “offended and humiliated” break their silence.
