At the initiative of C-E-A / Association française des commissaires d’exposition, PUBLIC POOL #5 “Vicinities” is a continual event, a forum for discussions on current artistic practices in their relation with contemporary issues. This event is envisioned as a research lab, likely to give place to original interventions, be they deliberate or experimental.
For artists, curators or critics, the favoured type of displacement is the residence: during a short or long time, a new studio, a new landscape, a new scene can be experienced. The exile of other workers and of political refugees invites to (re)consider the notion of border in a radical way, and to elaborate an active reflection on the crossing of boundaries and of dividing lines between art and life, spaces, mediums, peoples and individuals.
