SOME LIKE IT WITH WORDS - JEAN-FRANÇOIS BORY
LA PLAQUE TOURNANTE (composers and sound artists FRÉDÉRIC ACQUAVIVA and LORÉ LIXENBERG) are delighted to present every first Saturday of the month (from April 5 to Dec 6) a series of 9 exhibitions and events at THE OUTSIDERS GALLERY in London, after their initial location in Berlin-Neukölln. LA PLAQUE TOURNANTE supports the fight of all invisible, disappeared and marginalised people, especially AVANT-GARDE artists that are forgotten or still unknown.JEAN-FRANÇOIS BORY has a long history with London, having taken part in the adventure of the iconic GALLERY TEN, where he exhibited in 1967, among other works, his poetic creations made with the typewriter. Pushing his investigations further, and reflecting on what he called the downfall of the Gutenberg Galaxy - drawing upon Mallarmé -, BORY would theorise the wreckage of the book, staging it in countless forms.Through his iconic typewriters covered in golden spray paint and adorned with tiny soldiers, he reminds us that writing is at war—and that the AVANT-GARDE never surrenders.This unique solo exhibition of JEAN FRANÇOIS-BORY works and books (he has published nearly 300) in London is a landmark event, with works spanning from 1964 to 2025. May his return to the English capital, sixty years after his show at Gallery Ten, shed light on his subtle path and his remarkable renewal of the poetic arts.
