Representing migration in contemporary art from France
This talk discusses some recent works of artists based in France that deal with issues of migration and precarious existances in and out of the french republic. In the works of artists such as Bouchra Khalili, Florence Lazar or Alejandra Riera, the political dimension of displacement is entwined with subjective narratives that complexify the relation between people and places, a relation that is constantly reinvented.
Giovanna Zapperi teaches art history and theory at Ecole supérieure d’art de Bourges and is research associate at Centre d’histoire et théorie des arts, EHESS (Paris).
