PROGRAM
EDUCATIONAL
The team at Manege has prepared an extensive educational program to accompany the ESPRITS project. The audience will be invited to take advantage of the lectures, film screenings, personal tours, and art mediations designed to facilitate deeper immersion into the philosophical, literary, and artistic world of France and all of Europe in the latter half of the 20th century. Not only did this context shape Christian Boltanski’s work in many ways; to a great extent it was itself shaped by his work.
