Mapping alternative artistic visions of the future
A new exhibition at the Pompidou Centre in Metz is hoping to challenge the Euro-centric principles that have long dominated art history. “After the end. Cartographies for another time” brings together the work of 40 international artists, as they explore alternative visions of our shared future as humans. FRANCE 24’s Florence Gaillard spoke to artists and curators there to find out more. We also meet the filmmaker behind a new documentary that puts the ultimate 1990s pop princess under the microscope, as “Britney: No Filter” examines the toxic media frenzy surrounding the young singer and its harmful effect on her wellbeing. A new French psychological thriller, “Out of Control”, starring Omar Sy and Vanessa Paradis, upturns a marital idyll and reveals the dark side of illicit romance. Plus we check out Ernesto Neto’s serpentine installation in a Parisian department store, as the Brazilian artist blends nature, gender and craft in his monumental work.
