In partnership with the Association nationale des \u00e9coles sup\u00e9rieures d&#8217;art (ANdEA), a new program has been set up inviting artists to tour art and design schools in France.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">In association with AICAD, which groups 39 art and design schools in the United States and Canada, and a group of American partners, the artist duo Dread Scott and Jenny Polak will inaugurate this program. A celebrated artist since President Bush called his early work &#8220;scandalous&#8221; in 1989, Dread Scott questions the dynamics of societal transformation and the legacy of colonialism. Jenny Polak works on site-specific community art projects that address immigrant-citizen relations. Alongside their individual work, the pair also collaborate on work around state violence and transgression.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\"><strong>WHAT ?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">Jenny Polak and Dread Scott will propose to French art and design schools to work on the intersections between contemporary immigration from North Africa and the Middle East to Europe and the legacy of forced migration and the slave trade in France, following on from their project &#8220;Passes&#8221; initiated in 2017 during a residency at the Camargo Foundation. Specifically, the groups of students and teachers involved will work on the archives of slavery in France. Dread Scott hopes to &#8220;provide access to moments in history that allow us to change the future.&#8221;\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">As an extension of this work, deploying this question to other territories, the art and design schools, in coordination with ANdEA, will organize the different components of this residency: \u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">1\/ A research phase: before the artists arrive in France, the students will conduct research with specific archives, and meetings, in particular, with communities of African migrants. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">2\/ A student workshop: in this production phase, the guest artists will involve the students in creating collectively, based on their former project &#8216;Passes&#8217;. Students will also produce their own projects in response. Print will be the preferred medium, but also performance, video or photography, in order to address the themes of the project &#8211; the history of the slave trade in France and current migration from African countries to Europe. The artists also engage directly with the students to transform research into art. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">3\/ An inaugural lecture by Dread Scott in English on each territory, which presents a range of proposals from his 30-year career &#8211; performance, photography, silkscreening, installation, video &#8211; and addresses the various themes that animate his research, likely to be of interest to students and beyond, other audiences (including the local immigrant community) and partners.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\"><strong>WHEN ?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\"><u>Program of student workshops:<\/u>\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">October 11 to 14 at ESADHaR site of Rouen \u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">October 18 to 21 at Esad Grenoble in association with ESAAA Annecy Alpes \u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">October 24 to 28 at EEsab site of Lorient \u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">November 2 to 8 at Esad Valenciennes \u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">\u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\"><u>Program of public conferences:<\/u>\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">Tuesday October 11 at 4pm at the Andr\u00e9 Malraux Cultural Center, Rouen \u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">Tuesday October 18 at ESAD &#8211; Grenoble site \u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">Wednesday October 26 at 6pm at EESAB &#8211; Lorient site\u00a0 \u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">Date to come for Valenciennes\u00a0<\/p>\n<p lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\" xml:lang=\"FR-FR\">Tuesday November 15 at 2pm at the Ecole des Arts D\u00e9coratifs de Paris\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":57057,"menu_order":0,"template":"","app_discipline":[218],"app_city_tax":[235,217],"app_news_type":[100],"class_list":["post-57059","app_news","type-app_news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","app_discipline-visual-arts","app_city_tax-all-cities","app_city_tax-nyc","app_news_type-portrait"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Jenny Polak and Dread Scott in France - Villa Albertine<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/villa-albertine.org\/va\/news\/jenny-polak-et-dread-scott\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Jenny Polak and Dread Scott in France - Villa Albertine\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"WHO ?
