  . Marion Beaupère

  
  
  

  Marion Beaupère was born in 1991 in Meaux, France. Today, she is into the third

  year of her post-graduate studies in the School of Fine Arts of Nîmes.

   

  At the age of 14, she began a Rotring series, considered by the artist as a protective

  covering and life-saving freedom. Since then, Marion Beaupère works on the limits of

  the body, from psyche to entrails, focusing on creation and its role in the vital process.

  For the artist, life, creation and death areparts of the same mechanism, an alienating and

  surrealist spiral.

  . Joachim Biehler

  Joachim Biehler was born in 1981 in Strasbourg. He received the National Superior Diploma of Expression of Plastic Arts (DNSEP) of the Superior School of Art of Perpignan.

   

  Familiar with the contemporary art milieu, he knows any of its subtleties or references, and enjoys twisting them with humor. Most of his works play an attraction-repulsion game. In the “like project”, one of his first series, Joachim substituted his face from contemporary art icons’ ones, such as ORLAN or Jeff Koons. The photomontage, a bit disturbing, makes us smile and wonder about the young generation’s place in this well-organized star-system.

  “Big sugar vanity” is also based on an ambivalent process: candies appeal and disgust us at the same time, placing us in direct confrontation with the vanity symbol. As a consequence, we connect sugar with our annihilating, blinded, consuming, warrior society.

  This work rests on a system of paradoxes. Through candies, Joachim captures a part of our senses: sight, sense of smell, taste. Our emotions are torn by the artist’s use of a material which deeply reminds us of childhood and feelings of immediate affection. Vanity reveals itself as a metaphor of today’s society, where the human being, often unconscious, sinks into warrior madness. With humor, poesy and irony, Joachim Biehler calls for a return to feelings.

  . Fouapa

  Pierre-Jean Choquelle alias Fouapa is 29-year-old and lives in Boulogne (France).

  He arises from the universe of the comic strip in which he participated in several projects and

  published his first book in 2013. He develops since 2014 an artistic universe inspired by the

  cabinets of curiosity and the works of the big anatomists whom he explores with an illustrative

  treaty where the color plays a determining role. Fanatic of the object, he attempts to use his

  frames as an extension of his subject, by adding it objects of recoveries, former ornaments and sometimes bones.

  He begins to expose in Paris, Lyon then Caen in 2015 and realizes numerous works on orders for

  private collectors.

  . Frédéric Garnier

  Frédéric Garnier was born in 1970 in Troyes. All his really protean creations stage

  our questioning on the human existence. Its beginning and its term. Its meaning. What

  we name collectively « After «. Then what survives us is born, takes place in memoirs, « tracks of life ».

  Visual artist, he expresses himself through numerous mediums: sculpture, installation, photo, video and

  drawings. His reflections concentrate on the object, which makes link between the human being and the world.

  By using materials of our time (foil blanket, cement, plexiglasse), it anchors its works in our period. They

  crystallize questionings in the intimate and universal echos.

  . Michel Laubu and...

  Michel Laubu, creator and artistic director of Turak since 1985, and Emili Hufnagel, co- director of the

  company since 15 years.

  Michel Laubu presents his theater in France and abroad ( Indonésie, Russie, Syrie, Norvège...). He was

  artisartner at Volcan, national stage of Havre, at Bateau Feu, national stage of Dunkerque, at Subsistances

  in Lyon...In short terms, he brings in France and abroad this strange theater, poetic and visual. The company has

  just its birthday of 30 years in 2015.

  Emili Hufnagel, accomplice of Michel Laubu, co-writes the projects with him. She is also a comedian in

  all the shows of Turak. 

  Turak in few words

  Turak, is a Theater of Objects and Puppet company, that develops a visual theater «all ground compatible»

  fed by diverted objects, by old or imaginary mythologies, by languages in multiple and invented accents.

  Known for its research work around the object, Turak mixes the puppet forms, the gestural theater and the

  plastic exploration. This tinkered poetry could be situated in the crossroads of the dance, the gestural theater

  and the plastic arts.

  The artistic approach of Turak lays on a game with the used object. Imaginary past, born from «the used of the object»,

  memory and marks of an invented civilization, it is from this fictitious archaeology that shows and exhibitions are created.

  The shows written and staged by Michel Laubu thus address a very wide public. Every image having several levels

  of reading, the doors of access are not lacking. It is a writing in strata, with « theater in all the floors».
