MEM\u00d3RIAS EM RE\/CONSTRU\u00c7\u00c3O <\/strong><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

ASMAHEN JALOUL & ROSE AFEF\u00c9 <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n


OPENING ON THURSDAY, JUNE 5th 2025, 6-9 p.m. in the presence of the artists<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n\n\n\n


Galerie du Jour<\/strong> is pleased to present Mem\u00f3rias em re\/constru\u00e7\u00e3o<\/strong><\/em> (Memories in re\/construction<\/em>), an exhibition by Rose Afef\u00e9<\/strong> and Asmahen Jaloul<\/strong> that concludes a three-month residency program supported by the Saison France-Br\u00e9sil 2025<\/strong> . The program, called La Fab. Studios<\/strong> , was conceived in partnership with Solar dos Abacaxis<\/strong> in Rio de Janeiro, embodying the shared desire of the two institutions to support an inclusive and committed vision of art by promoting cultural exchanges between France and Brazil. Following a call for projects, Rose Afef\u00e9 and Asmahen Jaloul were selected for the residency as part of the Talents!<\/em> program of the Fiminco Foundation<\/strong>, a partner in the project. In the wake of the Afirma\u00e7\u00e3o<\/em> exhibition in 2023, which brought together 11 Brazilian artists, La Fab. continues its commitment to the Brazilian art scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Through their respective practices, Rose Afef\u00e9<\/strong> and Asmahen Jaloul <\/strong>explore the reconstruction of identity<\/strong>, blending intimate<\/strong> and collective memory<\/strong>, and summoning ancestrality, transmitted narratives and shared gestures. Nourished by a three-month residency together, their artistic dialogue questions borders<\/strong> – geographical, symbolic, cultural – and reveals how the margins can become the center of a new, sensitive narrative. Relying on encounters and collective practices as vectors of reparation and transmission, they shape imaginary homes where forgotten narratives come back to life, between erasure and belonging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


For Asmahen Jaloul<\/strong> (born in 2004 in Mesquita, on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro), from a Lebanese-Brazilian family, the notions of immigration, borders and diasporic memory<\/strong> come naturally. During her residency in Paris, she set up meetings at symbolic sites of Arab resistance, gathering stories from immigrants and their descendants. These exchanges gave rise to a video mixing these voices with her own family memories, and a series of portraits. Her project examines the home as a space of resistance<\/strong> to erasure and marginalization, deconstructing the spaces of identity imposed on the Arab people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Also drawing on her childhood memories, Rose Afef\u00e9<\/strong> (b. 1988, Varzedo, Bahia) is developing an artistic practice combining installation, painting and photography. In 2018, she founded Terra Afef\u00e9<\/strong>, a mud-brick micro-city in Ibicoara, Chapada Diamantina: a collective laboratory where art and life meet. At Galerie du Jour, she continues her work on Terra do P\u00e9 Vermelho<\/strong>, a utopian city built with the public from hand-formed adobes, and featuring paintings of symbolic inhabitants. The materials used include earth taken from various locations in the Paris region – from working-class neighborhoods to historic sites – to question notions of power, possession and redistribution<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Each in her own way, Rose Afef\u00e9<\/strong> and Asmahen Jaloul<\/strong> develop strategies for transforming society, opening up a space for encounters where (re)building is both an act of resistance<\/strong> and a gesture of reinvention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THE FRANCE-BRAZIL SEASON<\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Following their meeting in June 2023 in Paris, Presidents Emmanuel Macron and LuizIn\u00e1cio Lula da Silva decided to organize a Brazil-France 2025 Season to give new impetus to the bilateral relationship, strengthen our joint responses to the political, social and ecological challenges of our time, and showcase the richness and diversity of contemporary creation in both countries. This new Season is built around three themes: climate and ecological transition, the diversity of societies and dialogue with Africa, democracy and equitable globalization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The Season will run in France from April to September 2025, then in Brazil from August to December 2025. It is implemented by the Instituto Guimar\u00e3es Rosa (for Brazilian programming in France) and the Institut fran\u00e7ais (for French programming in Brazil), in close collaboration with the Brazilian Embassy in France and the French Embassy in Brazil, under the aegis of the Ministries of Foreign Affairs and Culture of both countries. The General Curator of the France-Brazil 2025 Season is Mr. Emilio Kalil, for Brazilian programming in France, and Ms. Anne Louyot, for French programming in Brazil.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n
