During four days, Claude Cattelain tirelessly raises a deliberately unstable structure, which transforms while it collapses and during the artist’s  reconstructions. Persistence, absurd gesture, precarious balance … and infinite renewal.

Claude Cattelain

Claude Cattelain, artist and performer born in Kinshasa, who lives and works in Valenciennes and Brussels. He has recently had a solo exhibition at the Archiraar Gallery and at the MAAC in Brussels, at Brasseurs in Liège and the Paris Beijing Gallery in Paris.

His performances such as Colonne empirique en ligne or Armature variable have been shown notably at the Palais de Tokyo, at the BBB centre d’art in Toulouse, at the M HKA, at la Cambre as part of the ACTUS Festival…

About

The performance get-together in Brussels is back!

After nine editions in different places and a hiatus lasting several years, the festival re-surfaces, this time in a more user-friendly format, where henceforth the Thor Studio will be its epicenter.

[Redux]

For its tenth edition – and the first in this new context – TROUBLE is named “redux” (from the latin term which means the identical restauration, but also the return, what comes back). Numerous works question the re-living (a moment), the re-doing (an action), the re-starting, and the renewal : ideas that seem opposed to what we think of performative art. We’ll see the contrary through all twenty-two performances, with artists coming from far away (such as the californian body artist Ron Athey or the feminist afghan Kubra Khademi), but also with emblematic belgian performers such as Gwendolin Robin or Claude Cattelain. Several propositions will be musical or festive. TROUBLE will also ride on the Radio Panik waves, pass through the audacity of young artists from La Cambre, or take some time for reflectional, philosophical and critical moments. The festival will strongly be part of his neighbourhood, particularly in his close surroudings, from a school’s yard to a church crypt, from a mysterious alley to the Saint-Josse square… With several propositions for a limited number of publics, the first arrived will be the best served. A journey with multiple possible ways, thought by the curator Antoine Pickels, to be living for an evening, a day, a week-end or for a four days immersion.
