Paraguay exists elsewhere. An offshoot from the Paris-based collectively-run project space castillo/corrales (2007–15), Paraguay is a non-profit organization established in Paris in 2016 devoted to developing a new vocabulary of words and actions through a program of publications, talks, exhibitions and workshops.
Paraguay is happy to announce the release of the book Soleil politique and its presentation this July in Paris, Athens, and Vienna.
Conceived by curator Pierre-Bal Blanc, in dialogue with graphic designers Vier5 and Paraguay, the book Soleil politique dwells on the exhibition that he organized at Museion Bolzano in 2014, examining its starting points in the readings of a group of thinkers and artists, its methodology—inspired by the musical compositions of Cornelius Cardew—and some of the consequences and afterthoughts the exhibition provoked.
In this series of presentations of the book Soleil politique, Pierre Bal-Blanc, the former director of CAC Bretigny and now a member of the curatorial team of documenta14, will talk about how an exhibition can rub with the dominant logic
Soleil politique is published by Paraguay and CAC Brétigny in partnership with Museion Bolzano and in cooperation with Piano, Prepared Platform for contemporary art, France–Italy 2014–15, initiated by d.c.a/ French association for the development of centres d’art.
