Les Eaux Acides is a collective exhibition hosted by artconnexion and created at the initiative of the resident artists of the Formcore studio located at the Couvent des Clarisses in Roubaix. The exhibition brings together 21 photographs from their personal and artistic archives: art experiments, photographs of exhibitions and fragments of works. Printed and framed in 40x50cm format, these numbered and signed prints are sold at a single price of 50 euros.
The funds raised by this sale will finance the purchase of new shared tools and the refurbishment of the studio spaces.
The primary goal of the Formcore studio is to enable the sharing of workspaces, skills and tools. It is a place for experimentation, creation and artistic dissemination, entirely self-managed by its members, and aimed at both resident artists and outside audiences, with a view to living and working together. The studio organises numerous projects within the Couvent des Clarisses but also elsewhere: exhibitions, residencies, workshops, concerts, events, etc. Its spaces and tools are thus regularly made available for artists' projects and community events. In 2023, Formcore organized the Dear Stuff exhibition at the Couvent des Clarisses and, in 2024, the Pasta water on roses exhibition at DOC! in Paris. In March 2025, the studio will participate in the Fiesta 2025 programme during a group exhibition organized in collaboration with Espace Croisé.
