Mitchell Anderson in conversation with Nicolas Bruhlart

Mitchell Anderson (1985) presents a new edition alongside recent works exploring the legacy of postwar rocketry. Drawing on graphite relics from a WWII V-2 rocket — the technological precursor to modern spaceflight — the exhibition features coloring-book pages derived from children’s rocket drawings, displayed alongside large wall drawings tracing launch trajectories and objects at the crossroads of craft and ready-made. Through these works, the rocket emerges as a contemporary global icon, embodying both promise and violence, and reflecting the anxieties, fantasies, and contradictions that shape our visions of the future.

Conversation in English.
As part of Nuit des Bains.

Presented as part of a nocturnal programme, this double screening gathers the recent films of Tabarak Allah Abbas and Roman Selim Khereddine. Tabarak’s shorts (Un Papillon; Mawtini) use intimate, observational frames to probe belonging and exile, blending delicate portraiture with moments of rupture. Khereddine’s works (Gotham Stakes; Time‑Eater) move between documentary and speculative registers, exploring human–animal relations and the mise en scène of the horse‑racing industry. The programme privileges tactile imagery, restrained soundscapes and empathetic attention to social worlds.

The exhibition delves into the realism, drama, and emotional intensity of 17th-century Dutch artists influenced by Caravaggio. The works of Gerrit van Honthorst and Judith Leyster exemplify the bold use of light and shadow to capture everyday life with theatrical intensity. Their contributions left a significant impact on the art of the era, paving the way for new expressions of the human condition.

23 January – 30 April

London-based artist Konstantina Krikzoni presents a body of paintings born from an intense solitary studio practice. Her work blurs painting and sculpture: textured, tactile canvases where brushwork and sculptural modelling interweave. Silent yet confrontational female figures occupy compositions in grey and yellow, evoking funerary motifs and the logic of memory and grief. ARMATURA functions as metaphor and method — an internal armature of endurance that shapes emotion into form through material exploration and sustained process.

12 March – 7 May

Ernest Pignon-Ernest, born in 1942 in Nice, is considered one of the pioneers of street art. Through life-sized charcoal drawings pasted directly onto city walls, he creates powerful encounters between his human figures and the urban spaces they inhabit. Deeply engaged with social and political issues, his work reflects historical and contemporary struggles while maintaining a strong poetic and human presence.

Opening during the Nuit de Bains on Thursday 12 March at 18:00.
