Event
Revealing tensions in society
around the exhibition: "False Friends"
Thursday 30 September 2010 • 6:30 PM
Talks and discussions organised in collaboration with art historian Katia Schneller. Four discussions have been organised in the second room of the exhibition. These will develop and articulate the questions raised by the works on show, and the vision of contemporary society conveyed by their narratives. The artists’ contributions will be complemented by those of specialist contributors in order to allow for a variety of viewpoints.
> REVEALING TENSIONS IN SOCIETY
Discussion with the artist Jean-Charles Hue
In his work Jean-Charles Hue sets out to reveal and offer a new perspective on underlying social tensions. For ten years now he has been exploring and filming marginal worlds. After an exclusive screening of his latest film, Carne Viva (2009), the artist talks about his depiction of the worlds of gypsies and the Mexican communities that organise pit-bull fights in films full of violence and fascination, self-transcendence and physical ordeals.
