Happy Heads – Love Songs<\/em> – Benoit+Bo<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong>
\nA project of Benoit+Bo in collaboration with CENTRALE for contemporary art
\n16.03 > 03.04.2020<\/del>
\nULB, Campus Solbosch, Avenue Paul H\u00e9ger<\/strong><\/p>\n

The festival BLC \u2013 Bruxelles Libre Culture<\/strong>, dedicated to cultural diversity, is organized on the Solbosch campus of the ULB (Universit\u00e9 Libre de Bruxelles) during the month of March. Both street art, cinema, architecture, sculpture, photography, painting, music, dance and theater are put in the spotlight. Every weekday, various permanent and punctual activities will take place in different corners of the university.<\/p>\n

CENTRALE for contemporary art, partner of the festival BLC, offers a special programming, in collaboration with artists duo Benoit+Bo<\/b><\/p>\n

The voice is artificial, it speaks words of love from popular songs without any emotion; the heads are artificial, their smile is frozen. It is a very new and modern way of expressing feelings, just like when you send a message on the phone saying “I love you”; or even when you send an emoji that is supposed to express your love:\u00a0it’s very artificial.<\/p>\n

Franco-Chinese artist duo\u00a0Benoit+Bo<\/a> places locations, territories, landscapes and memories at the heart of their artistic research. They create a new contemporary perception of space-time by combining them with our sensations and our cultural imagination, a subjective mapping.<\/p>\n

Created in 2002, the duo became Benoit+Bo \/ \u6771\u6ce2\u897f\u6ce2 in 2005 to create an art-synthesis between East and West.\u00a0Using various mediums, they draw their imagination from Chinese mythology and popular art to make us dream of a better, diverse world. Juggling between transformation and hybridization, the artists also exploit the urban territory, asking the question of the visible and the symbolic. They stage the new physiognomy of cities; places of exchange, integration, emergence and disappearance of borders.
\nEnriched by numerous travels, their artistic performance offers a poetic vision of a transformed and re-imagined world.<\/p>\n
