Have taboos concerning Courbet’s painting The Origin of the World really disappeared? What kind of cultural absurdities govern our relationships? The author, artist and journalist Liv Strömquist invites us to step back and think, with a touch of humour, about these questions that concern us all.

Drawing inspiration from artists, researchers and the celebrity press, Liv Strömquist combines scientific analysis with caustic humour relating to gender issues and denounces prejudice and sexual inequality through the prism of mass education.

The vernissage will take place on 20 April as part of the POLAR Festival.

In collaboration with the Pavillon des Canaux.
