Are we on the bridge? The artists on display - they are. Without any ambiguity. They are watching. They are alerting. They question and invite us with poetry, humour, concern, sometimes virulence, sometimes delicacy, to change paradigm.
Like a crew, they were manoeuvring activism and humanism. Whatever their medium - photography, painting, video, volume, drawing - artists bring us aboard the world ship.
It is a question here - wherever one expresses oneself, whether the purpose is combat, quest or observation - of probing memory, of giving voice to the poor, to women, to blacks, to migrants, to the Other. It is a question of considering the political issues of racism, post-colonization, gender, intersectionality, climate change and transmission.
