Workshops for groups of high school students as part of the Role Models program [from 2024 to 2025]

AWARE: Archives of Women Artists, Research and Exhibitions is offering high school workshops in collaboration with artist Morgane Baffier, who will be presenting a lecture-performance entitled “Les M&M’s l’ont fait” [The M&M’s have done it] on women artists who are “role models”, i.e. are examples to be followed. The workshops will also provide an opportunity to discover the AWARE research center at the Villa Vassilieff, and to reflect on gender inequalities, particularly in the art world.

Morgane Baffier

Morgane Baffier is an artist-lecturer whose surname derives from the ancient Occitan “bafa” meaning “swindle”, and this information may be important in understanding her work. Using graphics, fabricated images, and internet videos, she elaborates all manner of metaphysical theories and reflections, developing them to the point of absurdity. In a bid to deconstruct knowledge, she appropriates the codes used in business, the media, and intellectual circles, and mocks, with finesse and humor, the systems of power and authority that condition access to speech.
