FOAM: Felipe Romero Beltrán Dialect
“What defines a migrant body? It’s the political question of our times,” says photographer Felipe Romero Beltrán, whose exhibition Dialect (now open at Amsterdam’s Foam Fotografie Museum) aims to examine. “It’s impossible (to answer), of course, because you can’t define what is a body through a document.” However, that hasn’t stopped governments from trying. In the exhibition’s first room, these attempts are embodied by two towering stacks of papers titled “This is your law. 23,794 pages of Spanish immigration law” (2023).

De l’audace à Art-O-Rama Avec son esprit curatorial et expérimental, la foire d’art contemporain de Marseille a tout pour plaire.
Outre son tropisme résolument international, la foire garde un esprit jeune. Vingt galeries ont cinq ans d’existence ou moins, comme la plateforme nomade Hatch, cofondée en 2022 par Margot de Rochebouët. Cette dernière vante «le contenu original et innovant de Art-O-Rama qui place les artistes au cœur de son positionnement et permet de les défendre avec la même qualité de présentation qu’en galerie».
