Two projects: Parcours/Journey and Labor
Since combining forces in 1993, this half-Brazilian, half-Swiss artistic duo operates among the excluded and the marginal. Among other recent works, two new projects at Le Plateau concern issues of migration and borders. In Parcours, the exhibition space is a sort of mirror image of the neighboring streets; Labor is a field study of what work signifies for immigrant communities in several Paris neighborhoods.
