Discover RATIO during an afternoon with a guided tour, a lecture by Sandrine Colard and the launch of Circuits, Jean Katambayi Mukendi’s first monograph.
In RATIO, Jean Katambayi Mukendi explores the dualities that shape our world: the natural and the artificial, growth and destruction, desired and discarded materials, and the relationship between resources and power. Conceived for IN SITU, the exhibition brings together newly produced drawings, paintings, and large-scale sculptures.
The activity takes place in English. Admission is free.
