Programme
AMIEX
Winner of last year's call for curatorial projects, curator Andréanne Beguin is unveiling AMIEX this summer. Based on a medieval legend in which Montpellier serves as the backdrop to a story of a budding friendship between women, brutally interrupted by the return of conventional love, AMIEX brings together artists from the Occitanie region and elsewhere, with the aim of giving this legend other endings in the present and for the future, so that Montpellier can once again be the scene of feminist, mixed, queer and committed friendships. The programme is designed for the region and to bring local audiences together around the exhibition.
With : Morgane Baffier, Flo*Souad Benaddi and Luna Louise Petit, Konstantinos Kyriakopoulos and Frank Zitzmann, Ninon Hivert, and Céleste Moneger.
