Temps Zero

About

Since 2012, the international collective TEMPS ZERO – led by photographer and curator Stéphane Charpentier and sound artist Alyssa Moxley – has been bringing together a new generation of international experimental visual and sound artists. The group travels across European cities in ever-changing line-ups, with poetic exhibitions, projections and improvised concerts, and workshop presentations.

This collectively supported art project is like a close-knit family of outsiders, looking for their place in an unruly world. The participants find each other in their existential drive for freedom and the intensely creative impulses that result from it. Together they fuse photography, video, sound art and music into penetrating sensory experiences.

From January 16 to April 12, 2020, TEMPS ZERO settles in Groningen and presents an interactive installation in the Noorderlicht studio. In the exhibition space, images are combined with multi-track sound that responds via sensors to the movements of visitors. A continuous projection is shown in a film room with a specially composed score.

TEMPS ZERO is also presenting works by Baukje Venema and Sebastiaan Rodenhuis – two photographers from Groningen – as well as a documentary film by Pierre Montagnez with artists interviews and backstage footage from the recent projects in Bucharest.
