Abstract

Trilogie de cendres (“Trilogy of ashes”) was an exhibition conceived in three stages based on the collection of the FRAC Pays de la Loire. The exhibition comprised 63 artists, 89 works including 74 from the Frac collection and 10 guest artists. It offered a multi-entry reflection on what makes home through the notions of identity, language and memory relating to individuals as well as to collective dynamics. The exhibition was conceived by Marion Duquerroy and Thomas Fort, and accompanied by students from the History of Art degree at the UCO of Angers, it was supplemented by a programme of encounters and performances. The first part of the exhibition examined the idea of “what makes home” within the intimacy of four walls (functional or dysfunctional family) and language (mother, translation). Bodies invite us to the confrontation between melancholy, feverishness and resistance (ie - Richard Billingham, Rineke Dijkstra, Miriam Cahn, or Damir Ocko), while the family home lights up between shadow and light, faded or on the verge of being destroyed (ie - Patrick Faigenbaum, Béatrice Dacher, Marc Camille Chaimowicz or Lara Almarcegui).
