Kivland read unsolicited ‘encounter’ emails as if they were intended for her alone in a sincere desire for a real love relation, until their repetition bored her. She posted them on Facebook, while she sought their form. Her friend A. C. wrote to tell her how much he was enjoying her lover’s discourse. The form became clear: after the French edition of Roland Barthes’s Fragments d’un discours amoureux (1977). In this reading Kivland read selected 'propositions' in her rarther literal English translation, while Fabienne Bideaud read each original French version, producing a reversed echo. The effect is somewhat like a film by Jean-Luc Godard. This is the first reading in a series, each with a different French woman. C-E-A and the Artist Document Network invited five C-E-A curators to meet five artists represented by the DDA Network. According to their desires and concerns of research, visits or workshops were organised in order to initiate the dialogue, laying the foundations of the collaborations. The exchanges developed lead to the production of texts on the work of artists and the organisation of the evening at the Cité internationale des arts. On this occasion, singular forms of broadcasting werepresented by each pair (video projections, discussions, performances, concerts ...). These unpublished co-productions bear their own language, while testifying to the meeting points between artistic and curatorial approaches.
