CAC Brétigny

On the program this week, Elsa M'Bala continues her musical dialogue with Christopher Okigbo in a new composition. Then it is the artist Hugo Caillaud’s turn, performing an excerpt of Ali Mazrui’s Procès de Christopher Okigbo (Trial of Christopher Okigbo) that has been specially translated for the event. Finally we will hear a talk by Marie Bechetoille, who is currently the director of the Centre d'art contemporain—La Synagogue de Delme, and who originally spoke at the “Manufactories” international conference recently held in 49 Nord 6 Est—Frac Lorraine. In her talk Ms. Bechetoille tackles the issue of participatory projects from the point of view of the exhibition curator, specifically raising the question of the degree to which such projects are liable to be influenced by working with artists.
