Description
Archifolia | In 2010, artists B. Genée Le Borgne and Al have made several crossings of the Departmental Archives of the North (Lille) and observed the different archive stores. In this closed world of shelves where documents are stored, the eyes of artists seeks to capture sets of packaging sometimes very old. They then construct representations from indexing and nomenclature visible. This book questions the use of paper and its editorial forms, visibilities to warm and varied colored materials including lightness and fragility speak the language of men. Each element of the archives, box, bundle, record or play, is a plastic form which is to be seen before the seizure. Artists put the visitor in the heart of these spaces of silence in which so many words together.
