Collage workshop-tour of the Mickalene Thomas exhibition
With the Dur·es à Queer association
The Dur·es à Queer association invites you to a collage workshop tour of the All About Love exhibition by artist Mickalene Thomas.
This event will begin with a short guided tour of Mickalene Thomas's dazzling, glittering, but above all deeply committed universe. This initial discussion of the artist's works will provide an opportunity to question the codes of representation in art history and pop culture. By placing black women at the heart of her work, Mickalene Thomas denounces their invisibility while deconstructing the patterns of fetishisation and exoticisation present in 19th- and 20th-century Western painting.
In a second phase, members of the Dur·es à Queer association will offer a collage workshop using magazines, echoing the works in the exhibition, to continue the reflection on the role of images and the meaning we attribute to them.
The workshop is free and open to all.
Ages 10 and up. Children must be accompanied.
Duration: 2 hours
Access with presentation of an exhibition ticket
