The first major solo exhibition of Geneva-based artist Anastasia Mityukova brings together for the first time a most of her series dedicated to the visual culture of the Arctic and the North Pole, resulting of her research started in 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During her residency in Qaanaaq, the northernmost town in Greenland, Anastasia Mityukova measured the distance separating the imaginaries of the Arctic Circle from its reality. For several years, she has been studying, deconstructing and confronting the Western visual culture of the North Pole with reality. Shaped by countless documentary films, illustrated books or photojournalistic reportages, it populated by explorers acclaimed as heroes, a fauna that has become a gene- ric symbol of global warming, and immaculate landscapes. It promotes fantasies of purity, adventure, exo- ticism and authenticity, obscuring more complicated realities: multifaceted geopolitical interests, a colonial history that is not always discussed as such, or a certain ambivalence about climate change. The artist seizes on these contradictions to bring nuance and complexity to these representations, and to underline the extent to which our gaze is constructed and conditioned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Premi\u00e8re exposition personnelle d\u2019envergure de l\u2019artiste genevoise Anastasia Mityukova, elle r\u00e9unit pour la premi\u00e8re fois une majeure partie de ses \u0153uvres d\u00e9di\u00e9es \u00e0 la culture visuelle de l\u2019Arctique et du P\u00f4le Nord, fruit de ses recherches actuelles entreprises en 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

En r\u00e9sidence \u00e0 Qaanaaq, localit\u00e9 la plus septentrionale du Groenland, Anastasia Mityukova mesure la distance qui s\u00e9pare l\u2019imaginaire du cercle polaire de sa r\u00e9alit\u00e9. Depuis plusieurs ann\u00e9es, elle \u00e9tudie, d\u00e9construit et confronte au r\u00e9el la culture visuelle occidentale du p\u00f4le Nord. Fa\u00e7onn\u00e9e par d\u2019innombrables films documentaires, livres illustr\u00e9s ou reportages photographiques, elle repose sur des explorateurs acclam\u00e9s en h\u00e9ros, une faune devenue un symbole g\u00e9n\u00e9rique du r\u00e9chauffement climatique, ou des paysages immacul\u00e9s et iconiques. Ces imageries font la part belle \u00e0 des fantasmes de puret\u00e9, d\u2019aventure, d\u2019exotisme et d\u2019authenticit\u00e9, offusquant des r\u00e9alit\u00e9s plus complexes : des int\u00e9r\u00eats g\u00e9opolitiques de tous bords, une histoire coloniale peu d\u00e9battue comme telle, ou une certaine ambivalence face aux changements climatiques repr\u00e9sentant des risques, mais aussi des opportunit\u00e9s. L\u2019artiste se saisit de ces contradictions pour apporter nuance et complexit\u00e9 \u00e0 ces repr\u00e9sentations, et souligner \u00e0 quel point notre regard est construit et model\u00e9 par les repr\u00e9sentations m\u00e9diatiques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
