Discussion « Art and activism : towards
an esthetic of radicality» hosted by Pauline LeGoïc membre of the Public
Act Collective (France)
Observation of a polarized political
radicalism that refuses to let artists do art or militants practice
politics forces us to reconsider the ways activism fits into
contemporary creation. A new way of envisioning artistic activity
surpasses too easily integrated and digested forms of “activist art” in
favor of an activist concept of creation. The proposed discussion looks
at the forms and risks of this radical art that is in direct moral and
political conflict with established esthetic values.

MAX RICARD
Singer-songwriter for more than 10 years,
Max Ricard presents a sample of his third album en chantier.
Influenced by an alarmist and individualist era, these new songs are
worth the reflection of an interior questioning where drama is always
next to self-mockery. Musically, the influences are Dylan, Tom
Waits and other solitary grumps. Armed with his vocal chords
and a pre-tuned guitar, Max Ricard
invites you to discover a universe that disconcerts and inspires him.

FELIX SOUDE
Folk-trash singer songwriter
using the title of chansonnier, Felix Soude throws caution to the wind
by giving voice to shocking songs on themes as varied as political
apathy, racism and rural exodus. In a playful and direct style, he
catapults his diatribes that will make
you laugh or grind your
teeth.
