Exhibition “QUI WHO ÊTES ARE VOUS les Louviérvoix ?”

09/04/2022 h 24/07/2022 F Add to the calendar 2022-04-09 2022-07-24 Europe/London Exhibition “QUI WHO ÊTES ARE VOUS les Louviérvoix ?”

In her work, Eleni Kamma explores the notion of parrhesia, the courage to say what one thinks, which she approaches from a comical and excessive angle. Echoing Pol Bury and André Balthazar's Daily-Bul magazine, Eleni asked the people of Leuven about their identity. Who are they? What is La Louvière? Does it claim to be? Is it written? Can it be worn? Between collective creation and cultural heritage, the people of La Louvière, past and present, find themselves in this collaborative exhibition, defined by a tenuous relationship between surrealist heritage, industrial landscape, working-class history and Carnival in clogs!

In the framework of the project Un futur pour la culture supported by the Wallonia-Brussels Federation and based on an invitation by Emmanuel Lambion.
