Territoires arabes en archipel
des traversées et des récits, à travers la collection du Centre national des arts plastiques
Through photographic and video narratives, L’Arrière-pays brings together Arabic-speaking artists hailing from geopolitically unstable regions, to explore questions of memory and transmission, exile and borders.
The content of this page
For the poet Yves Bonnefoy, “l’arrière-pays” is a phrase with a dual meaning – both spatial and temporal. It suggests taking a step back from a present that is being questioned. This search for another place is neither wise nor reasonable. It is driven as much by dissatisfaction as by hope, desire, pride, and fervor. This exhibition brings together artists from war-torn or geopolitically unstable regions to present, through photography and video, narratives at the crossroads of memory and transmission, exile and borders, documentary and fiction. In resonance with the guest language, these artists gather archives and testimonies, striving to give voice to those who have been silenced, in a quest for that arrière-pays where it is once again possible to say I.
