Uprisings

“Uprisings” is a trans-disciplinary exhibition on the theme of human gestures. Held at Jeu de Paume, it that raise up the world or rise up against it: collective or individual gestures, actions or passions, works or thoughts. Gestures which say no to a state of history that is considered too “heavy” and that therefore needs to be “lifted” or even sent packing. Gestures that say yes to something else: to a desired better world, an imagined or adumbrated world, a world that could be inhabited and conceived differently.
