    "I Lie to Them." - Based on a True Story

    9 June - 1st September 2013
    Auditorium of the MAGASIN-CNAC, Grenoble (FR)

    The exhibition, "I lie to them." - Based on a True Story, explores the effectiveness of fiction in re-telling, re-representing and re-enacting traumatic experiences and unofficial histories. The artists blur the boundaries between real and fake, employing strategies of manipulation to create new narratives appropriated from archives, news images or war witness accounts; while questioning both the medium and source’s authenticity. read more
