Authentiques Résidents / Résidus
Double publication edited by Astérides on the occasion of the exhibitions Authentiques Résidents, 2001, and Résidus, 2000.
Authentiques Résidents
Authentiques Résidents presents a selection of works by artists currently in residence at the Astérides studios. For Vincent Bunel, Elsa Gaudefroy, Véronique Rizzo and Stéphane Tesson, the exhibition marks the end of their residency period. For the others, it takes place during their ongoing work session at Astérides.
The exhibition is oriented toward the construction of a shared space-time within the gallery at the Friche, creating a setting conducive to encounters and to the discussion of works developed within the individual studio spaces.
Résidus
Alfredo Costa Monteiro was hosted at Astérides from September to November 2000 as part of Regards Croisés, an artist residency exchange program run in partnership with Hangar in Barcelona since 1998.
Marking the end of his residency, the exhibition presents a selection of work produced by the artist in his studio.
Visual and sound traps, the works make use of low-tech materials to “disorient with simplicity” the viewer.
