The second chapter of Archives des artistes opened on Thursday, March 26, at the Cité des Arts in Paris.
Both artists, Monika Emmanuelle Kazi and Jeanne Tara, have, at different moments in their trajectories, lived and worked in Paris. While their relationships to the city are distinct, this exhibition becomes an opportunity to bring their research back into this context, offering a renewed perspective on their practices.
This moment reflects on the links between artistic trajectories, places, and artists’ studios. How does geography shape artistic practices? And what happens when archives are moved into a new context?
By moving between Geneva and Paris, Archives des artistes creates a dialogue between these two cities, inviting us to reconsider how archives are shaped by time, movement, and place.
