Lucile Desamory | Untitledment

Netwerk Aalst, until May 25

With the installation Untitledment, Lucile Desamory delves into the ongoing artistic question of emancipation and autonomy. This resonates with Desamory’s long-time interest in colliding, fluid memories, and spurned narratives, which she explores through combinations of a wide range of media including installations, films, and live performances. The title alludes to the artist’s desire to create a terrain vague, a serene and fluid space delicately poised between emptiness and an autonomous zone.

Concert

During Club Ritual—A Social Event Choreographed in the Manner of a Dance Carola Caggiano & Lucile Desamory will perform hits by Dalida, Mina, old polish cabaret songs and Schubert Lieder. With or without microphones they wander through these well-known melodies which serve as vessels for emotions. 

In Dutch, Arabic, French, Italian, English and Yiddish, Desamory and Caggiano invite you inside of an exhilarating lament. With their spesial guests, Alina Sargsyan and Nicholas Bussmann, they stir a murmur and aim at a delirious state of communion.
