Tenir, l'exposition des diplômés en Art

Tenir: an exhibition by graduates of the Master’s in Art and Magma programme at TALM-Le Mans

17 artists who have completed the DNSEP* Art et Magma (specialising in art and geomaterials) from the TALM-Le Mans School of Art and Design invite the public to discover their work through the exhibition “Tenir”, which will be held in the Quinconces exhibition hall, in Le Mans (access via the Jacobins car park), from 4 to 17 December.

The exhibition will feature pieces from their final-year projects as well as more recent works created during their early careers as artists.

Art critic Sarah Ihler-Meyer, the exhibition’s curator, identifies a particular approach on the part of these young artists, which she describes as a desire to “propose new frameworks for viewing, to diverge from the dominant trajectory, to unravel imposed narratives and to recode established signs. To stand firm against capitulation.”

A graduates’ catalogue, produced by the school’s staff, will also be presented at this event.

On Friday 4 December, a private viewing, open to all, will be held from 6 pm, attended by the exhibiting artists.

DNSEP*: national higher diploma in visual arts, equivalent to a master’s degree (bac+5)
