To mark its 60th anniversary, L’imprimerie, centre d’artistes presents a public discussion featuring artists Fanny Latreille and Camille-Zoé Valcourt-Synnott, moderated by Laurie Magnan.
Rooted in their respective research and approaches, this discussion will focus on the conditions under which artists work, the (lack of) recognition of artistic labor, and the issues of precariousness that permeate the visual arts community.
Several questions will guide the conversation: Why isn’t artists’ work recognized as a legitimate profession? How can we conceptualize artistic practices outside the logic of productivity and market value? Beyond precariousness and symbolic capital, is it possible to discuss class relations in contemporary art? By addressing these issues, the discussion will open a space for reflection on possible forms of solidarity in a context marked by the weakening of the social safety net.
The audience is then invited to stay for a toast to mark the launch of L’imprimerie’s 60th anniversary celebrations!
