During his residency, Antoine Davenne worked towards
a script for a video project. He engaged in writing and carried on
his research into military buildings that remain from the Second
World War in several parts of Europe. His project seeks to explore
how, through geometry and perspective, some of these remains may
form a particular space for interrogating the memory of conflict and
warfare activity, both in relation to landscape and to the theatre.
Antoine Davenne (b. 1979, Reims, France) currently lives and works
in Paris. Recent exhibitions and performance programmes include Natural
Beginners at La Rouvraie, Greater Paris in 2015, Nuovo
Mondo at Palais de Tokyo, Paris in 2014, as well as That
Said at Babel, Trondheim and Situation|Event at
Gasworks, London in 2013.
