The Nuit Blanche 2024 program at the Générateur in Gentilly :

  • 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm: Within a thousand Suns by Samory Ba & Oktawia Scibior (Slippery Art Project)
    Dance - Contemporary roller skating
    Through a choreographic style based on the absence of friction allowed by gliding, the two artist-skaters Oktawia Scibior & Samory Ba, wearing roller skates, explore a choreographic language specific to contemporary skating and propose a dance that puts our perception of space and time to the test.

  • 9:30 pm - 11:30 pm: L'Effort, the world of Jacques Perconte
    Exhibition - Video installation
    A major figure on the digital art scene and in the French cinematic avant-garde since the late 90s, Jacques Perconte has developed a sensitive audiovisual body of work in which environment and landscape are the vehicles of a unique aesthetic that disrupts vision as much as the technologies it implements. In this new work, the artist sensually seizes on high-mountain landscapes and the efforts of a number of mountaineers moving in complete freedom, suspended between sky and rock.

  • 11.30pm - 1am: AEROBICONOISE by Sophie Monroy, William Nurdin, Circuit Tordu, Yvette Lamarche, Ivan Martin and Ronan Pain-sec
    Variable-geometry performance - Live music
    This sports and sound performance varies according to the physical and mental shape of the protagonists. The action unfolds in the midst of a minimal set, with pseudo-athletes, machines and produced sound. Hoops, a cyclist and noise to sweat out pop and trash common sense.
