From 1 to 15 December 2024, the Bonnet-Abelin gallery will be offering the public an exhibition of works by JM Calvet that resonate with the Biennial's project, namely the relationship between people, punctuated by the rivers that surround us.

The artist will be presenting a series of works on this theme, as well as offering an immersion into his world: a discovery of painting and the emotional release it brings. It's a theme that the artist has mastered perfectly, since during a deep depression 25 years ago, he discovered painting, which undoubtedly saved his life. And it is this message of hope beyond his art that he wishes above all to pass on to others.

This immersion will take on a deeper dimension, in partnership with the borough's public institutions, by offering a workshop outside the gallery walls with children. The aim is to encourage young people to express themselves, to exchange ideas and to accept each other's differences and draw inspiration from them.
