Shadow Theater
Taking a shortcut in the center of Belgrade;
having a walk on a hill overlooking the cityscape of Sapporo;
sauntering idly through Eagle Rock; or
arriving after dusk at Enoteca Picone in Palermo
a window catches my eye
— impromptu shadow theater

En prenant un raccourci dans le centre-ville de Belgrade
en me promenant sur les hauteurs de Sapporo
en flânant sans raison dans le dédale des rues d’Eagle Rock ou
en arrivant à l’Enoteca Picone de Palerme
(après le crépuscule)
une fenêtre accroche mon regard
— théâtre d’ombres impromptu

The Zemun Cycle of Silkscreened Graphics
Last summer, my friends Johanna Marcadé and Bruno Tolić, organizers of Novo Doba festival, helped me produce this silkscreened poster, a portrait of singer Valerie June, at their Zemun studio, near Belgrade. — As Bruno put it, “This is yet the beginning of a great cycle…” (I hope so.)
L’été dernier, mes amis Johanna Marcadé et Bruno Tolić, organisateurs du festival Novo Doba, m’ont aidée à produire cette affiche, un portrait en sérigraphie de la chanteuse Valerie June, à leur atelier à Zemun, près de Belgrade. — Comme l’a dit Bruno, “C’est seulement le début d’un grand cycle…” (j’espère bien.)

Trying to Figure Out — Conversation with Lia Perjovschi, Oct 12
Starting from Lia Perjovschi’s early performance work of the 1980’s and scrutinizing how it relates to her current artistic practice of opening new spaces of knowledge and re-organizing those spaces, Louveau & Perjovschi want to propose a conversation about performance art, the connection of art and research, and different approaches to filling gaps with art, thus shortcutting 30 years of artistic practice and its context from communism to capitalism, from the local to the global art scene.
