Aiming to examine the plurality of contemporary forms of resistance, the exhibition presents a majority of artists linked to the African continent, the Middle East and Asia, or more broadly living in situations of oppression or inequality. The project gives significant space to political protest at a time of the disappearance of the colonial world and the collapse of the communist world, drawing parallels between individual narratives, forms of personal resistance and collective trauma. The catalogue is structured around bilingual essays by Christine Macel, Alicia Knock and Yung Ma, curators of the Contemporary Creation and Prospective department, on works from the collection.
