Opening on Thursday, May 2nd, from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m.

Curated by Mélanie Bouteloup & Lucas Morin

In the Spring of 2019, Bétonsalon - Center for Art and Research will host a solo exhibition by artist Jean-Charles de Quillacq. The exhibition will include newly commissioned performances and sculptures, as well as existing works.

Born in France in 1979, de Quillacq lives and works in Zürich. He graduated from the Lyon National School of Fine Arts and the Weißensee Kunsthochschule in Berlin. He creates conceptual and fetishistic sculptures, which he incorporates within exhibition protocols that implicate staff and visitors. He turns them into auxiliaries, even accomplices, of his work, accepting the loss of control and potential deviations that those invitations might lead to.
