Conversations with French Contemporary Artists from the Richard Foundation Award and Curators is realized in the context of the exhibition ‘Palais Potemkine’ in association with Pernod Richard Bulgariq, Foundation Richard, Institut Francaise and the National Gallery the Palace. The series of talks will introduce to the audience with the state of French contemporary art in a conversation with some of the most intriguing French artists. The very practice of these artists from the French scene enriches the notion of a “scene” and places it in perspective. The plurality of their concerns defies the compartmentalization of geographic, stylistic or thematic boundaries that might try to homogenize their approach. Though they are united by their various connections to France, they are nonetheless citizens of a global art community. Their research and collaborations lead them to former Eastern Bloc countries, to France’s overseas territories, to former colonies, and to urban or remote areas in France and around the world. They tackle colonial history, boundary lines, political upheavals, the role of monuments and urban planning, the construction of national narratives, museum displays, the backdrop of the information society, media discourse, access to public voice and opinion, the analysis of gestures, the alterity of bodies, and the inequality between individuals. - Pierre Bal-Blanc is an independent curator and director of CAC Brétigny (Contemporary Art Centre of Brétigny, greater Paris). Since 2003, echoing the societal thought of Charles Fourier, he has run the “Phalanstère Project,” a series of site-specific proposals aiming at critical rethinking of the logic behind accumulation of art works. Through his work he continues his exploration of the forms and responsibilities of museums, their daily activities, and their relationship with the city. - Full program of INTRODUCTION TO CONTEMPORARY ART - Sofia 2017 here   / 1898522457086374   - Introduction to Contemporary Art is a project of Open Arts Foundation and SARIEV Contemporary.
