Saturday 9 September 2023 Reading & book signing. Béatrice Lussol écrire ou partir. On the occasion of the exhibition à bras le corps (Béatrice Lussol and Agnès Vitani), the Galerie Eva Vautier invites Béatrice Lussol to read from her novel écrire ou partir, published in June 2019. Béatrice Lussol Écrire ou partir, 2019 French edition 11 x 17.75 cm (paperback) 112 pages Béatrice Lussol offers a poetic novel, or rather an open writing experiment to which her critique of the novel has led her. The cruel strangeness of the artist's plastic work finds here its relentless echo, in an epic that twists and chisels the writing of her deconstructed language. After Merci (2000), Pompon (2001), Diane ? (2003), Sinon (2007) and Les Souffleuses (2009), Béatrice Lussol returns to experimental fiction. Every sentence contributes through its unsettling unpredictability, the curious improprieties, the slips, dislocations and displacements that throw it off balance, giving language a casual lesson in contemporaneity and an ironic twist that vaporises the narrative. Here everything is diverted, unstable, neologistic and adventurous, attentive to the repressed as much as to anger.
