Source La Fab L'enfance dans la collection agnès b. du 24 février au 30 juin 2022
Nous sommes heureux de vous annoncer la présence de Chano Devi dans la nouvelle expositon d'agnès b. présentant la quatrième saison de sa collection à La Fab. dédiée à l'enfance. "Tous les grands ont été petits." Cette phrase, chère à agnès, révèle l’importance que revête l’enfance dans sa vie, un intérêt que l’on trouve tout naturellement dans les oeuvres de sa collection. "J’ai toujours vécu avec des enfants. J’aime les voir grandir, se construire, les écouter… Ils me surprennent toujours, m’obligent à me poser en permanence de nouvelles questions. Rien n’est jamais acquis ni évident pour eux. Leur inquiétude m'émeut." agnès b. Avec ce quatrième accrochage, agnès nous invite à suivre son regard qui se pose avec tendresse sur "ces gens en train de se faire".

In doing so—Stierli underlines—they also provided a blueprint for how modern architecture could serve as an agent of decolonization across the global South in the decades to come. “Secondly, what we have here is a unique body of work of extraordinary aesthetic and architectural quality and historical significance that forces us to rethink and recalibrate the ways in which the history of modern architecture has been told, mainly from a Western and Eurocentric point of view”. And last, but not the least, there lies the awareness for the precarious state in which modern architecture finds itself in, in different parts of the world—“Our exhibition hopes to raise awareness of the need to preserve this unique legacy and the bold societal vision it embodies.”
