Rien à voir is an exhibition conceived by Béatrice Lussol, with Cécile Bouffard, Clarisse Tranchard, Marie Losier, and Eugénie Zely.

This event will mark the launch of the book NON merci la vie, published by L in 2026.

Béatrice Lussol (Toulouse, 1970), graduate of Villa Arson in Nice, she lives and works in Malakoff. She was a resident at Villa Medici from 2009 to 2010. She teaches at an art school in Rouen. She has participated in several international group exhibitions, such as Global Feminism at the Brooklyn Museum (New York, 2007), at the Kerava Art Museum (Kerava, Finland, 2007), and i hit you with a flower at the Stedelijk Museum in Schiedam, Netherlands (2024). Her work has also been the subject of solo exhibitions at the Maison des Art (Malakoff, 2012), the Spritmuseum (Stockholm, 2013), the CAC Le Carré (Château Gontier, 2018), and Galerie S in Paris (2025). His pieces are notably present in the public collections of FRAC PACA, CNAP, MAMAC in Nice and MAMCO in Geneva.

A visual artist, she pursues three artistic practices in parallel: drawing, writing and collage. In her drawings, she develops a vocabulary accompanied by the wet qualities of watercolour, drawing inspiration from the body, its nutrients, its organs, fingers, mouths and vulvas, ready for shifts in meaning and polysemic interpretations. Psychedelic coloured words mingle with what does not concern them and filter what she will not say. She isolates the word so that it pulsates between the emptiness of stammering and the stupor of babbling, between language and reality, on the edge of falling.

In terms of writing, she has published six books that could be described as experimental novels: Merci (2000) and Pompon (2001) published by Balland, Sinon (2007) and Les Souffleuses (2009) published by Léo Scheer, Écrire ou partir (2019) published by Éditions de poche du Printemps de Septembre. NON merci la vie, published by L, will be available at Glassbox from the opening and accessible online on the publisher's website.

Marie Losier, born in France in 1972, studied literature at Nanterre and fine arts in New York. She is known for her avant-garde and poetic portraits of artistic figures such as Alan Vega, the Kuchar brothers and Genesis Breyer P-Orridge, whom she portrayed in The Ballad of Genesis and Lady Jaye (2011). This film, which won awards in Berlin (Teddy Award, Caligari Prize) and elsewhere, has been distributed internationally.

His works, often screened at festivals (Cannes, Berlin, Tribeca) and museums (MoMA, Centre Pompidou, Tate Modern), also include Cassandro the Exotico! (2018), a portrait of Mexican wrestler Saul Almendariz, presented at Cannes and acquired by MoMA.

In 2019, she explored new forms with Felix in Wonderland! and exhibited at the Anne Barrault Gallery. Her retrospectives (Jeu de Paume, Athens Film Library, Cinématek in Brussels) and exhibitions (French Institute in Cambodia, Casa del Lago) highlight her influence. In 2024, she presented Peaches Goes Bananas! in Venice and is preparing an exhibition in Bourges in 2025.

Clarisse Tranchard was born in 1966. Her work could be understood as an exploration of what it means to “be in the world”. In the form of sculptures, installations, performances and videos, most of her work questions what it means to ‘be in the world’. It is based on the use of poor materials, mostly recycled, where energy is more important than quality. The scrap or artefacts of little value and the assemblages she creates from them allow her to address notions of high and low culture, amorality, marginality, mutation, archaism and its echo, which she discerns in the time of her artistic testimony.

It is an ongoing attempt to reclaim a commonality that connects us, representation and its metaphysical vitality, the convergence of the power of artistic objects, our intrinsic capacity to transform our being through creativity: destruction and repair.

His work has been exhibited at venues including the Centre Georges Pompidou (Paris), Le Transpalette (Bourges), Nuit Blanche (Pantin), Galerie 22Visconti (Paris), Galerie Bertrand Grimont (Paris), Théâtre de la Ville / Fondation Hermès, La Ferme du Buisson (Noisiel), Paris Internationale (Paris).

The exhibition was made possible thanks to the creative support of the Cnap.
