In the framework of the partnership between Tainan National University of the Arts and ENSAPC, the artist in residence Wei-Li Yeh will develop, in collaboration with six students, an exhibition with moving contours. Taking as a starting point the book of Fran\u00e7ois Mauriac Maltaverne (Un adolescent\u00a0d\u2019autrefois<\/em>), they will set out on the road to this place to find elements of reflection. Transformed into a workshop, Ygrec will be the site of personal and collective constructions and will constitute a platform welcoming various gestures and voices of artists and writers.<\/p>\n

Maltaverne in\/and\/at Aubervilliers <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00ab\u00a0A proposition was made:
\nTo teach an art course and come up with an exhibition at Ygrec.
\nAn artist was chosen from Taiwan.
\nA reference is given by the teacher:
\nMaltaverne, A Novel About a Young Man From Long Ago (Un adolescent d\u2019autrefois)<\/em>,
\nOne of the\u00a0last\u00a0works by the famed French author Francois Mauriac.
\nSix students were selected from ENSAPC.
\nThey are from Austria, China, France, Georgia, and Korea.
\nDiscussions amongst them reveal who they are.
\nAt one point, these seven people make a trip together to St. Symphorien for four days.
\nThe visual art mediums placed before you here are decided by encounters with translations of the French text and this collective journey.
\nA heightened emphasis on process is an attempt to make transparent the creative impulse.
\nWorks shown are not made to be complete, can they ever be?
\nThe exhibition reveals the continual build-up of collaborative friction.
\nThis friction gives a form that approaches understanding,
\nAn understanding that the desire for resolution resides inside oneself,
\nAnd others alone.\u00a0\u00bb<\/p>\n
