About
The exhibition "Ce qui nous restera" at La Roche in the 14th arrondissement examines themes of legacy and memory through the works of ten LGBTQIA+ artists. Curated by Gabrielle de L’Estoile, the showcase investigates personal and collective heritage, focusing on what we inherit and what we pass on to future generations. By mapping stories of family, shame, pride, and silence, the artists strive to make visible experiences that have often remained unspoken. This exhibition is open to the public free of charge, running from October 21 to November 21, 2026, and invites visitors to explore these sensitive artistic narratives.
"What will remain of us" brings together about ten artists from the LGBTQIA+ community around transmission and memory, whether intimate or collective: what we have received as a legacy, and what we will choose to pass on to those who come after us. Stories of family, blood or chosen, memories, silence and shame, pride and joy make up a sensitive cartography of what was long kept silent, and what art attempts to make speakable or at least visible.
