Looking towards the future, the videos in French Edges do not attempt to define national identity.  Instead, they boldly skirt the uncharted social topologies of complex cultural landscapes in France and around the world. Born in or based in France, these artists’ decentralizing gestures trace the increasingly fluid movements of bodies in international space, ruminating on cultural sensibilities far more nuanced than the clear-cut divides of border politics. The program includes works by Lili Reynaud-Dewar, Eric Baudelaire, Cécile Hartmann, Elsa Fauconnet, Moussa Sarr, and Théodora Barat.
