Le Palais des Tressaillements

Free

Le Palais des Tressaillements brings together a group of contemporary artists who examine the legacy and circulation of images. Through photography, installation, mixed media and archival practices, the exhibition investigates how visual cultures shape identities, memory and collective narratives. Works by Yvan Alvarez, Tim Bruggeman, Aline d’Auria, Lina Geoushy, Mårten Lange, Magdalena Wysocka and others propose strategies of appropriation, re-signification and poetic reassembly to resist dominant representations and to imagine alternative filiations.

Opening: Tuesday 9 June, 18:00 and guided tour with the artists (in French and English)

MAH

John M Armleder presents an interchange-based exhibition that foregrounds objects drawn from students’ suitcases. Through object-based works and subtle interventions, the show probes modes of observation, intimacy and collective memory. Personal belongings are rearranged as visual prompts that evoke histories, pedagogy and everyday cinematics. The artist’s restrained interventions invite reflection on how small domestic items circulate meanings and facilitate encounters, revealing how private narratives surface within a communal field of attention.
