Lassana Sarre spent time with the Palais de Tokyo’s security teams, from the entrance desk to the galleries, watching the rounds, exchanges and stories that visitors rarely notice. He answers with wall paintings, canvases and a sound installation made on site. The paintings, often in earth colors and built on contrasts of black and white, return to details of the job: patrols, standing still, beeps, breaks, shifts, meals alone or shared. Curated by Horya Makhlouf and Hugo Vitrani.

Some nineteen artists and groups take part, among them Artetxe, Pacôme Ricciardi, Marine Peixoto, Léa Tissot-Laura and Collectif Silo. Curated by Liza Maignan.

The winner of the Prix des Amis du Palais de Tokyo turns the vocabulary of official statuary on its head, working in stone, plaster, copper and polystyrene so that fakes pass for the real thing. A headless, hollow column anchors the show, which draws on the history of monuments pulled down in revolutions and on graffiti, workshop marks and weathering. Curated by Horya Makhlouf; the show travels to the CEAAC in Strasbourg in 2027.
