This exhibition marks the third and final part of the triptych of exhibitions organised at the Hôpital Notre-Dame à la Rose by the B.P.S.22 space for contemporary creation of the Hainaut Province in Charleroi, Belgium. The show presents a selection of artists whose work interacts with the various rooms of the Museum dedicated to medicine and the conventual life of women.
Titled Addenda—plural of addendum—the exhibition is defined as so many additional notes to the historical pieces of this unique heritage site. The contemporary interventions, several of which were specifically designed for the show, highlight the many questions raised by the Museum.
The exhibition approaches many issues related to the Museum. Thus conceptualized, these works are so many reflective notes to meditate and explore.
The artists: Marina Abramović, Iván Argote, Alain Bornain, David Brognon & Stéphanie Rollin, Laurence Dervaux, Frédéric Fourdinier, Regina José Galindo, Thomas Lerooy, Teresa Margolles, Hans Op De Beeck, Gina Pane, Fabrice Samyn, Yvonne Trapp, Rémy Zaugg, Marie Zolamian
Curated by Nancy Casielles
