AROUND THE TABLE
Anne Kerzerho and Loïc Touzé
This project proposes to reunite artists, researchers and, on a larger scale, anyone who has a professional practice involving the body, to exchange their knowledge and approaches.
The project’s underpinning aim is to improve circulation and dialogue in the exchange of knowledge about the body, that is to be performed in some way, and restoring the role of the citizen in the production of knowledge and practice involving the body.
“Around the table” will take the form of an artistic event which will travel around France and abroad, in order to capture the multiplicity of knowledge and uses involving the body in a variety of cultural contexts.
