Official Exhibition Text by curator Jonathan Demer:

Is it aging, or is it today’s situation that infuriates me, I do not know, but as the years pass, and I radicalized. Finding these two words in Léo Ferré – AmourAnarchie – I had a lighter heart. I found a kind of core commitment of oneself to others: to a person through the figure of love, and to a group through the figure of anarchy. These are two positions that illuminate the relationship I have with life. To art, the same sincerity matters. The artists and the works that make up AmourAnarchie were chosen with this in mind.
