Tarek Lakhrissi speaking in 'Sex and Art along the Seine' as part of the Conversations programme at Paris+ 2022 on Saturday 22 October 2022, 3:30pm (CET).
'Sex and Art along the Seine' is with artist Tarek Lakhrissi, author Bruce Benderson, and Mathieu Potte-Bonneville, Director, Department of Culture and Creation, Centre Pompidou. Moderated by independent curator Juliette Desorgues.
What erotic counter-readings of art history does the late recognition of queer artistic scenes offer? Why is the dandy figure so important to many contemporary artists? How is Pan-Africanism revitalized by a new generation of creatives? These are among the many questions the speakers participating in Paris+ par Art Basel’s inaugural Conversations program will attempt to answer.
Curated by Pierre-Alexandre Mateos and Charles Teyssou and taking place on a docked boat opposite the Eiffel Tower, the Conversations program features 32 speakers across nine panels, bringing together leading artists, gallerists, collectors, curators, museum directors, and critics.
Included as part of the programmes highlights.
