Poésie Plate-forme LOVE
« Loving » brings together for an exceptional discussion Christine Angot and Léonore Chastagner.
Christine Angot is one of the most renowned contemporary novelists. Her literary material of choice is her own existence, whose private and public aesthetic links she explores. Her novels include Vu du ciel, Léonore toujours, L’Inceste [published in English translation as Incest], Quitter la ville, Rendez-vous, Une semaine de vacances, La petite foule, Un amour impossible and recently Un tournant de la vie. Most of these were published by Editions Flammarion. She gives public readings, writes for the theatre, and regularly publishes texts, interviews and columns.
Christine Angot is the mother of Léonore Chastagner
After earning a degree in art history, Léonore Chastagner is currently studying at Villa Arson (ENSA) in Nice. She develops sculptural work in which utterance becomes a physical material, between sensation and memory. She participated in the exhibition A Summer in New York and organised the exhibition of Fernando Arrabal’s Poèmes Plastiques at the Musée du Montparnasse. She also writes texts that she reads.
Léonore Chastagner is the daughter of Christine Angot.
