Om Linda Lamignan
Billed- og performancekunstner Linda Lamignans værker formidler følelsen af at være fremmed og flyde imellem ulige verdener. Gennem video, musik, objekter og performance udforsker Lamignan forestillinger tilknyttet vandringer og diaspora, transformation og kærlighed. Med en animistisk tilgang arbejder hen med materialer knyttet til industrier i Vestafrika og Skandinavien, og ved at knytte historien om disse materialer til kroppe med lignende historier, søger Lamignan at visualisere nye alternative tilstande.

Linda Lamignan modtog sin MFA-grad ved Det Kongelige Danske Kunstakademi i København i 2019 og sin BFA-grad ved Kunstakademiet i Oslo. Lamignan har haft et travlt efterår med flere udstillingsåbninger, heriblandt soloudstillingen ’those who do not travel never arrive: Carry Your Home’ på Rogaland Kunstsenter.

Om Cédric Fauq
Den franske kurator Cédriq Fauq har i de seneste år imponeret på den internationale kunstscene – både som kurator på Palais de Tokyo i Paris og senest som chefkurator for Capc – Musée d’Art Contemporain de Bordeaux.

Fra 2020-2021 arbejdede han som kurator på Palais de Tokyo, hvor han udviklede udstillingerne ’Antibodies’ og ’Sarah Maldoror: Tricontinental Cinema’. Tidligere arbejdede han som udstillingskurator hos Nottingham Contemporary, hvor han opsatte shows (Still I Rise: Feminisms, Gender, Resistance; Sung Tieu: In Cold Print; Grace Before Jones: Camera, Disco, Studio), performances (Okwui Okpokwasili; Steffani Jemison; Lou Lou Lou Sainsbury) og publikationer.

Kunstsalon VISION at Kunsthal Charlottenborg
– conversation between artist Linda Lamignan and curator Cédric Fauq (F)

In collaboration with Kunsthal Charlottenborg, Bikubenfonden is extending an invitation to Kunstsalon VISION, where visual artist Linda Lamignan will be meeting with Cédric Fauq, Chief Curator at Capc - Musée d’Art Contemporain de Bordeaux, for a conversation about Lindas practice.

Linda Lamignan has been singled out for Bikubenfonden’s Artistic Practice program for particularly promising artistic practices. The aim of the interview salon, which is one aspect of the program, is to examine one Danish artist’s singular approach to art and the potential that is seated within this. In connection with the interview salons, it is the artists themselves who choose their interview partners.

About Linda Lamignan
The works of visual and performance artist Linda Lamignan convey the sensation of being alien and of floating between dissimilar worlds. Through video, music, objects and performance, Lamignan explores notions related to wandering and diaspora, transformation and love. Taking an animistic approach, they are working with materials that are associated with industries in West Africa and Scandinavia. And by conjoining the history of these materials/raw articles to bodies with comparable experiences, Lamignan seeks to visualize new alternative frames of mind.

Lamignan received their MFA degree at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen in 2019 and their BFA degree at the Academy of Fine Arts in Oslo. Lamignan has had a busy autumn, with several exhibition openings, including their solo exhibition, ‘those who do not travel never arrive: Carry Your Home’ at Rogaland Kunstsenter.

About Cédric Fauq
In recent years, the French curator Cédriq Fauq has made an impressive showing on the international art scene - both as curator at Palais de Tokyo in Paris and, even more recently, as chief curator of Capc - Musée d’Art Contemporain de Bordeaux.

From 2020-2021, he worked as a curator at Palais de Tokyo, where he developed the exhibitions, ‘Antibodies’ and ‘Sarah Maldoror: Tricontinental Cinema’. Previously, Cédriq Fauq was working as an exhibition curator at Nottingham Contemporary, where he set up a number of shows (Still I Rise: Feminisms, Gender, Resistance; Sung Tieu: In Cold Print; Grace Before Jones: and Camera, Disco, Studio), performances (Okwui Okpokwasili; Steffani Jemison; and Lou Lou Lou Sainsbury) and publications. Moreover, he is working as a writer and developing freelance projects [DOC, Paris (2018); Sophie Tappeiner, Wien (2018); Nir Altman, München (2019); Atlantis, Marseille (2020); Futura, Prag (2021); VEDA, Firenze (2021); and Frieze London (2021)].

From 2017-2018, Cédric Fauq was a member of the Baltic Triennal XIII curatorial team and from 2016-2018, he took part in leading clearview.ltd in London.

The central core of Cédric Fauq's practice is the reassessment of contemporary art’s values as a specialized and cultural field, a reassessment that is being carried out together with curator Anne Colin, and this has led, in turn, to collaborations with the networks BOTOX(s) and Mécènes du Sud - Montpellier.

Place and time of interview:
The live conversation is going to take place from 5 to 6 P.M on Friday, October 7, in the screening room at Kunsthal Charlottenborg, Kongens Nytorv 1,1050 Copenhagen K, Denmark.

About the Interview Salon
In the interview salon, Bikubenfonden zooms in on a single or two artists' practice, with a focus on the artist’s/artists’ promising and innovative approach to art. Typically, the artist is currently making exhibitions or performances and has distinguished her/himself as being groundbreaking and innovative in the span of a short time. The interview salon is a "close-up study" and offers an investigative insight into the artist's specific practice and potentials: an oeuvre-interview as well as a close-to-the-subject interview. The artist chooses her/his own interview partner in this conversational format.

Kunstsalon VISION is Bikubenfonden’s conversational format in the field of art.
