Brognon Rollin — I’m All Tomorrow Broken Heart’s — Michèle didier Gallery — Exhibition — Slash Paris

Past: September 8 → October 8, 2022

For the opening of the 2022-2023 season, mfc-michèle didier will present a solo exhibition by the artist duo Brognon Rollin, starting on September 8.

Entitled I’m All Tomorrow Broken Heart’s, the exhibition will introduce exceptional new works in the full sense of the word. Produced in digital and immaterial form, these works refer to the narrative potential of Brognon Rollin’s work, often taking its roots from a story, an anecdote, a legend, a fable, an apologue or a rumor.

Radically conceived, the exhibition will present a new work each week, celebrated by a “co-memorative” session with Brognon Rollin and various invited storytellers, allowing the audience to participate and to recall memories.

These works will increase their supposed immateriality through their oral transmission. Given that no image pre-exists its orality, each work will be inscribed in a hypothetical time. A «memory of the future» in a way, which may randomly disappear or realized in the collective imagination as a fact through the Mandela effect or end up being materially accomplished.

Since 2008, Brognon Rollin has been questioning the perception of time and reality, among other things, by questioning the fungible and substitutable nature of memory and experience. Often marked by relativism and spirituality, their works bring together different topics relating to expectation, confinement or destiny, as questions referring to a form of alienation or emancipation.

Their works are part of several public collections: MNAM, Cente Pompidou, France / The Israel Museum — Jerusalem, Israel / MAC VAL, Musée d’Art Contemporain du Val de Marne, France / Collection MUDAM, Luxembourg / BPS22 — Musée d’Art de la Province du Hainaut, Belgique / Centre National des Arts Plastiques (CNAP), France / MAC’S — Grand-Hornu, Belgique / FRAC Alsace, FRAC Poitou-Charentes et FRAC Lorraine, France.
