Authentiques Résidents
Collective show with Jérome Basserode, Vincent Bunel, Alain Domagala, Jean-Baptiste Farkas, Elsa Gaudefroy, Véronique Rizzo and Stéphane Tesson
February 2 - March 3, 2001
Galerie de la Friche la Belle de Mai, Marseille
Authentiques Résidents presents a selection of works by artists in residence at the Astérides studios. For Vincent Bunel, Elsa Gaudefroy, Véronique Rizzo, and Stéphane Tesson, the exhibition marks the conclusion of their residency period. For the others, it takes place mid-way through their time at Astérides.
The exhibition is oriented around the construction of a shared space-time within the Friche gallery — a setting conducive to encounters and to opening a dialogue around works created individually in the artists’ studio spaces.
Alfredo Costa Monteiro was hosted at Astérides from September to November 2000 as part of Regards Croisés, a residency exchange program run with Hangar in Barcelona since 1998.
Marking the end of his residency, the exhibition features a selection of work produced by the artist in his studio.
Visual and sound-based traps, the works employ low-tech materials to “disorient with simplicity” the viewer.
