2016 : Voices of Orléans

For this first edition, on 20 and 21 May 2016,
"Les Voix d'Orléans" presents the feminine aspect of the French-speaking world around these two themes:
How do women think the world? How does the world think about women?
Vast questions to which women and men, academics, artists and writers try to answer,
from all over the world and all French-speaking.

All over the city... Roanne /14 february-18 mach 2012

With the will to reach out to the inhabitants, the town of Roanne has formed various partnerships with places not used to presenting artists' works...
and with the Decaux company with whom I had already had the opportunity to set up street exhibitions in Paris and Le Havre.
Breaking into the heart of everyone's daily life, I give these words of women to be heard in spite of the incessant buzz of advertising and the media.
 Marie-Goundo's heroine is not one of those we see in movies...    no more than the bearded men who invite themselves on the esplanade with their manifesto!    In the pedestrian streets Auntie Milouda talks to us about freedom... Denise talks about "getting older" and Sarah talks about how hard it is to be a boxer in a patriarchal society.  
 
 
At the pool too, unexpected encounters...    on the facade of the theater...  or that of the museum...    in the hospital lobby... and the women's and children's ward.  of the CAF or the
public utilities		  ...or the administrative centre.



 This work could be shown printed on canvas, portraits are exhibited with the texts read registerde on MP3 with which visitors could visit the show to choose the voices they want to listen. All the series is projected in a slide-show in each exhibition.
