<\/p>\n

From September 19th, 2019, to February 9th, 2020, the Institut des Cultures d\u2019Islam presents The eye and the night,<\/em> an exhibition curated by G\u00e9raldine Bloch.<\/p>\n

The works by eighteen artists originating from Africa, the Middle East, and Europe question our perception of nighttime, between the profane and the sacred, and the real and the imaginary.<\/p>\n

The works presented in the exhibition invite the visitor to embark on an extraordinary journey in darkness by offering a panoramic representation of our nights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first part of the exhibition addresses the experience of pitch-black nights as a source of knowledge and revelations. Gazing at the sky, the marvellous, poetry, the mystical, and the sciences appear to meld.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition then offers visitors an opportunity to experience the shifting and disquieting night light. In the reinterpreted chiaroscuro the bodies – and their stories – are concealed. A refuge and a barrier, night remains a time of solitude and adversity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition ends with artificial nights, between eclipses and illusions. Lulled by dreams and memories, the nights invented by the artists are both bewildering and familiar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
