simone fattal will deliver a series of lectures at the Louvre. These three ‘Artist Lessons’ will be anchored in works from the Louvre’s Department of Near-Eastern Antiquities, which the artist, having unconsciously created works similar to those preserved in the collection, feels a particular affinity for. In these lectures, developed in conversation with Ariane Thomas, director of the department, Fattal will give voice to the now-silent works in the collections.
