Exhibition

Enfin la résidence !

May 29 – June 8, 2014, public opening on May 29, from 7PM
Petirama, Friche la Belle de Mai, 13003 Marseille

The exhibition brings together the work of the four artists currently in residence at Astérides. They have spent six months working in the studios, having come from Paris, Lyon, and Vevey (Switzerland), and will soon leave at the beginning of the summer to embark on new projects.

They are young, having graduated from prestigious art schools only a few months ago. They applied in search of a framework that would allow them to continue their artistic practices with support (workspace, grant, workshops, exhibition opportunities). They were selected by a jury that recognized the quality of their artistic practice, the relevance of their research, and the clarity of their vision.

The exhibition presents their reflections through works they created here and now wish to share with the public. The studio provided during the residency was a space for research and experimentation. Now, the Petirama venue becomes a space of presentation, where their freshly produced works are hung and brought directly into view.

Painting, installation, and video are their preferred mediums.
To be looked at, listened to, experienced—and ultimately, shared.
