TRANSCRIPT
«Un jour, j’étais âgée déjà, dans le hall d’un lieu public, un
homme est venu vers moi. Il s’est fait connaître et il m’a
dit : « Je vous connais depuis toujours. Tout le monde dit
que vous étiez belle lorsque vous étiez jeune, je suis venu
vous dire que pour moi je vous trouve plus belle
maintenant que lorsque vous étiez jeune, j’aime moins
votre visage de jeune femme que celui que vous avez
maintenant, dévasté ». Je pense souvent à cette image que
je suis seule à voir encore et dont je n’ai jamais parlé. Elle
est toujours là dans le même silence, émerveillante. C’est
entre toutes celle qui me plaît moi-même, celle où je me
reconnais, où je m’enchante.»
L'Amant, Marguerite Duras, 1914-1996

"Electricity is like an effort of some sort of living matter to turn into spirit and mind. It would almost appear as though matter is trying to get an ecstasy, using electricity."
- Ernest Hello.
Playing in interaction with machines... learning to master their language... that is the
challenge of Electric Suites... the sounds of traditional instruments closely intertwined with
those of the electronic music... Folklore, Jazz, Beat music, traditional and ancient music,
Electric Suites was inspired by this diversity in order to develop a new aesthetic,
highlighting the profound aspirations of the creator and of the artist: to provide an artistic
language that would be relevant to its time, while preserving a link to its past and origins.
About the artist:-
Guillaume Blanc, violinist and composer
Born in 1981, Guillaume began playing the violin at age 5. After studying classical violin, he
learns to know and love other musical aesthetics by joining the class of the great violinist
and teacher of jazz improvisation Didier Lockwood. He also attended the class of Octavio
Lopez, renowned contemporary music composer.
Amongst his numerous collaborations, he had the pleasure of working with the
choreographer Céline Pradeu-Kanagasabai on the choreographic pieces CPK-30ans
(CPK-under 30 y.o) and Hybrid, around the theme of a shared identity between France and
India (tour in the “Alliances Françaises” -French Alliances- in India and Sri Lanka in
2012 and 2013).
He also composed the original soundtrack for plays, such as Les parents terribles (Terrible
parents) and Un numéro d’équilibre (A balancing act) for the Minuit44 company (Avignon
Festival, in France, in 2012 and 2013). He was also part of the painter & artist Xavier
Ott’s performance on the theme of nature and the sacred, Le passage de Vénus (The
passage of Venus).
In 2011 he was a finalist in Stéphane Grappelli’s Jazz Violin International
Competition, winning the award for "Scenic Performance".
He holds a national degree (“Diplôme d’Etat”) in violin teaching, and teaches violin and
viola in several conservatories in France.
He is currently working on the development of Electric Suites, a Dj Set combining live
instrumental and electronic music.
"The Jazz violinists are not yet legions and Guillaume Blanc is certainly one of the best.
In its Electric Suites project, he presents original compositions of a high and rare
5
quality. He deserves a great future, so do go see and listen to him!"
- Didier Lockwood

This new screening from the series on video art emphasises the notion of changes
choreographed with different point of views.
In the first video, “Véronique Doisneau “, Jerôme Bel (dancer choreographer and
forerunner of the non-dance movement) is portraying a ballet dancer from the Paris
Opera, who is to retire soon.
Bel gives the dancer a platform to confess about her work, about not being a star but only a
"background" dancer, working and suffering from this harsh discipline. An intimate
portrait and a premiere within the enclosure of the institution, the Opera de Paris.
In the second video "O seculo" by the Brazilian artist Cinthia Marcelle ( winner of the
prestigious Future Generation Art Prize), there are no words, and no storyboard, the
empty street 's changes are orchestrated through a series of colourful and original actions
and movements.
Anne Maniglier is a curator and photographer from France. For many years she worked in
newspapers and news agencies and with the photography agency, Magnum.
In 2007 she settled in India, and started to curate and manage emerging
Indian artists in between India Europe and the US.

designs. Her creations have no limits.
Missill spent the last few years playing over 800 gigs at every major festival, and countless
clubs. Her sound is so versatile that she can happily play between all types of acts or dj’s. It
is this versatility and her own style of music that saw her entertaining crowds of up to
100,000 and touring the world (over 35 countries across the 5 continents) to play at some
of the biggest clubs, festivals where she has really made her mark , thanks to her
innovative and dynamic style.
The sounds she makes are fresh, the mixes are original and her boundless energy is
contagious. Missill's sound is like no other! Missill’s unique and captivating style called “Dj
Mag”. She makes full use of her skills and the open minded sound of 'little miss magic
ngers‘makes concessions to no-one. This borderless philosophy on life is evident in her
music and style. Her live shows and albums kindled the global medium from french Tsugi
mag to Mixmag even appearing front pages on Japanese's most trendy magazines.
With such strong drive, ambitions, energy and obvious talent, the world will certainly be
hearing more of this young French mix-tress…
Make sure you don't miss out on the French phenomenon.
