Pensive images

Inspired by the work of the German writer W. G. Sebald, the exhibition L’Image-papillon (The Butterfly Image) addresses the complex relations that link image and memory. It gathers together sixteen artists whose work, like Sebald’s, explores the realms of memory and history through the concepts of experience and overlapping temporalities. Borrowing its title from a recent essay on Sebald’s Work by the writer and literary researcher Muriel Pic.
