L'homme gris
collective exhibition
Commissioner: Benjamin Bianciotto
Location: Casino Luxembourg
The exhibition L’homme gris questions non-archetypal representations of the devil in contemporary art through the works of Alex Bag, Darja Bajagić, Bianca Bondi, Christine Borland, Gast Bouschet, Christoph Büchel, Sarah Charlesworth, Jan Fabre, John Urho Kemp, Ragnar Kjartansson, Julien Langendorff, Élodie Lesourd, Tony Oursler, Andres Serrano, Sindre Foss Skancke, David Tibet, Iris Van Dongen, Gisèle Vienne, Marnie Weber and Jérôme Zonder.
Far from disappearing, the figure of the devil has simply mutated, demonstrating once again the fascinating faculty of adaptation that has enabled him to traverse the history of art - and of men - without weakening. The Gray Man offers artists two possible avenues to explore. Their choice thus oscillates between the empty shell, the costume to wear, the pure image, and an elusive and constant metamorphosis.
Available in the shop: Publication and cassette L’homme gris

Silver Memories
Daphne The Sergeant as part of the European Month of Photography
Commissioner: Paul di Felice (Café-Crème a.s.b.l.)
Location: Casino Luxembourg
By assuming that silver ore is becoming scarce, Daphné Le Sergent (* 1975) constructs a hybrid artistic narrative where silver photography is at the center of the questioning of artistic, economic and ecological issues.
His multimedia proposal - a video projection, on the one hand, and an installation composed of photographs and photographic drawings created especially for the Casino Luxembourg space, on the other - shows in a sensitive way the production chain of photography. film, from mining to stock market fluctuations.
