price

Entrée libre sur présentation d’un billet d’accès aux expositions du jour

Accompanied by the cellist Anssi Karttunen, the actors Carlo Brandt and Sonia Masson dialogue in front of works by André Masson. The first shares extracts from the text by Bernard Noël, Les Têtes d’Iljetu – published in full for the first time in the catalogue accompanying the exhibition – to which Sonia Masson will respond by lending her voice to the poets and philosophers who were friends of the painter (Antonin Artaud, Georges Limbour, Armel Guerne and Michel Leiris), as well as those who influenced him, including Heinrich von Kleist, Dostoyevsky, Cervantès and Friedrich Nietzsche.
