Catastrophe at Kufa

A clickbaity headline? Maybe. We’re sorry about that but it’s accurate too! Catastrophe are band and you can see them, in person, at a real gig, next week at Kulturfabrik.

Antoine Henault

The days are growing longer and the sun is finally beginning to return to our lives so what better way to spend a lovely Spring evening, than in the company of seven, eccentric French people.

Maybe don’t answer that immediately.

Nouvel album 'GONG!' sortie le 11 sept. - sur toutes les plateformes ▸ https://idol.lnk.to/GONG'ENCORE' et 'SOLASTALGIE', premiers extraits du prochain album...

Now seeing seven people in one place at any time is a little odd these days and it might seem like a lot of people on stage but they’re down from their previous best of twenty so count yourself lucky you can even get in the room.

A band in the tradition of French avant-garde they bring together a kaleidoscope of ideas and genres to create one big, happy, poppy, colourful party and that’s what we all need right now. Right?

Silver Memories: Casino Art Gallery presents Daphné Le Sergent

Author L McLean

3.4 - 6.6.2021

Every cloud has a silver lining as the saying goes, and perhaps the only silver lining of this pandemic has been mankind’s flight into nature. Where human contact has been removed and forbidden, most of us have found solace in long walks in the woodlands and landscapes around us; much of which had gone unnoticed for years. As “pandemic individuals” we are not alone in this awakening, many have sought inspiration in this way for years. Now we have the opportunity to explore the artist Daphné Le Sergent’s collection Silver Memories, this work is based on the theme "Rethinking Nature / Rethinking Landscape".

From the 3rd of April until the 6th of June, Casino Contemporary Art Gallery on Rue Notre Dame, Luxembourg presents the work of Daphné Le Sergent as part of the 8th edition of European Month of Photography. Le Sergent was born in 1975, and is a French artist of Korean origin. The exhibition Silver Memories, presents a collection of landscapes combining photography, drawing and video.

By assuming that the ore of silver is becoming scarce, the artist constructs a hybrid artistic narrative where film photography is at the center of the questioning of artistic, economic and ecological issues. Her 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 and its impact.
