"Partagez l'article !FacebookTwitterLinkedinPinterestemailQuand la photographe Marie Docher a commencé à compter les femmes dans les expositions de photographies en France il y a une dizaine d’années, et qu’elles brillaient surtout par une absence qu’elle s’est mise à questionner, elle s’entendait souvent dire que c’était la faute de leur manque de talent ou d’attractivité.

"Nan Goldin is one of the most high-profile artists of our time. Her view of the joys and sorrows of a human life through the lens of her camera is legendary. Her photos of herself and her friends are snapshots of intimacy and coupling, the quotidian and wild parties. She makes social issues visible and negotiable, even far beyond the art world. In the largest gallery of the Stedelijk, Nan Goldin returns to the origins of her artistic practice with the exhibition This Will Not End Well. As a filmmaker, she presents slideshows consisting of thousands of photos in six unique buildings, supported by music, voice-overs, and archive material."

Since the 1970s, her artworks have continually explored complex mechanisms of power, gender, class, consumerism, and capital.

"In recent years, impending ecological apocalypse has spurred a number of contemporary artists to visualize fears of an environmental collapse. Yet it’s also inspired artists to imagine post-apocalyptic futures. British artist Emma Talbot and American artist Dana Schutz address the subject of societal, ecological meltdown in their recent shows, organized respectively at Kindl, Berlin, and at Musée d’Art Moderne (MAM), Paris. While they draw the spectators’ attention to humanity’s absurdities, contradictions, and collective inefficacy, they offer paths to eco-centric renewal as well."
