artconnexion

" ‘Only Connect’ could be our motto. We are fundamentally interested in creating connections - on a human level, and within society. We are motivated by what encounters with artists and their works can produce." → More about Exhibition & Events

"To resort to a metaphor, artconnexion prefers to take the side roads rather than the “highways” of art: not simply being involved in representation, but being engaged in a project immersively and exploiting this 'doctrine' as a professional asset." → More about Residencies

"artconnexion forges links between art, society and audiences. What is fundamental is that the representatives of civil society are the main players in the dialogue with the artists. There is an understanding that everyone can benefit from an artist's viewpoint on any issue. A collective dialogue is created, with the opportunity for these commissioners to become active citizens, making their mark on the city." → More about Art in common

artconnexion - 9 rue du Cirque, Lille

Starting with the Tulipmania crisis in the Netherlands in the 17th century, considered the first speculative bubble in history, Olivia Hernaïz uses this flower as a symbol of financial excesses and abuses.

From the mountains of Central Asia to European still lifes, and through Turkish palaces, the tulip—an object of intense desire—becomes a means to explore our relationship with the living, with time, and with money.
