ETEL ADNAN LEPORELLOS

Etel Adnan has long been an adept of this art, since her encounter with Rick Barton at the Buena Vista Café in San Francisco. Either she copies out the poems composed by her writer friends, and illustrates them with water colour or ink, or she repeats a selection of words like a litany, or she simply uses India Ink or gouache to draw what she can sees. This exhibition is the first to be entirely dedicated to the artist’s leporellos. On this occasion, two books will be showcased: Etel Adnan, Leporellos, with texts by Etel Adnan, Anne Moeglin-Delcroix and Jean Frémon. Etel Adnan, Un printemps inattendu, a compendium of interviews given by Etel Adnan between 1983 and 2018. The artist’s latest prints will be exhibited at the bookshop.
