At Soft Walls, we invite artists and curators that inhabit Athens permanently, occasionally or momentarily to share excerpts, points, reasonings and thoughts around their practice in the context of an artist talk.

Soft Walls function as listening and exchanging platforms, invitations and opportunities to meet, share and fill the space with words and thoughts that we consider vehicles and catalysts for our shared experiences.

This month’s Soft Walls, present artist Lola Gonzàlez

Wednesday April 10th at 19.00

Language: English

Duration: 45 minutes

Lola Gonzàlez (b. 1988, France) has been developing work for several years at the crossroads of video, sound, and performance. Questioning the notions of collective, commitment, friendship, generation, and language, her work questions our common fears and our hopes for the future. She is developing her research projects in several countries within different communities of friends or strangers. Since 2021 and together with Malak Maatoug, she runs La Maison dans laquelle, a social, artistic, and educational space in Dordogne, France.

Her work has been shown in numerous French and international institutions, such as the MAC in Lyon, the Centre Georges Pompidou and the Palais de Tokyo, in Paris, the MAAT in Lisbon, and Basis in Frankfurt. She has been selected for numerous residencies such as the Pavillon du Palais de Tokyo in Paris, Flax in Los Angeles, Homesession in Barcelona, and was a resident of the Villa Médici in Rome in 2018/2019. She is represented by the Marcelle Alix gallery, Paris.
