Il était une fuite

This exhibition was curated by the students of the Master Écritures Critiques et Curatoriales de l'Art et des Cultures Visuelles (Critical and Curatorial Writing in Art and Visual Cultures) at the University of Strasbourg.
The exhibition Il était une fuite tries to question the classical representation of the horizon, designed as a strict and arbitrary line. The aim is to reach a new horizon, free of all artificial barriers, and to return to a more inclusive approach. While suggesting the idea of overrun as an end, the exhibition seeks to overcome the limits imposed by the anthropocentric world, which are obstacles to freedom of movement. The act of running a way, naively attached to the idea of avoidance and cowardice, is here considerate as a powerful, courageous and vital act, but also as a way to emancipate from those limits. Through the artworks exposed, the horizon is thought as a space of sharing.

The exhibition is the work of a collaboration between the students of the Master Écritures Critiques et Curatoriales de l'Art et des Cultures Visuelles at the University of Strasbourg (Bruno Latour Promotion) and the three FRACs of the Grand Est region: Alsace, Champagne-Ardenne and 49-Nord 6-Est Lorraine.
