Vitrine : La téléphoniste Céline Ahond a un message pour vous — Frac île-de-france, le Plateau — Event — Slash Paris

Past: January 27 → February 28, 2016

Every month, the “Window Display” (50 meters away from le plateau) is home to a new art project linked to le plateau’s exhibitions, collection and educational outreach ventures.

For this new window display, Céline Ahond has devised an audioguide around a selection of works from the collection of the frac île-de-france. To listen to the messages she has left for you, please dial the indicated number.

Ahond’s work plays on the gaps between images and text. Blending various types of narratives, the performances she has been making since 2003 take the shape of commented slide projections or walks in which the landscape becomes the image the audience is encouraged to explore. Whether in the public realm or in dedicated art spaces, the act of speech, for Ahond, is a way to trace the path of a thought under construction. Remembered anecdotes, the reality surrounding us, and the micro-events unfolding in it are described, framed and recounted so as to compose a narrative of the everyday.
