Don't miss the Nuit Blanche at Nogent-sur-Marne's MABA on June 1, 2024. Discover this historic site in a new light, and experience an unforgettable evening at the heart of art and culture.
Nuit Blanche is an annual invitation to artistic and cultural discovery that transforms Paris and its suburbs into a vast open-air museum. The event runs from sunset to dawn on June 1, 2024, offering visitors a nocturnal journey of exhibitions, performances and art installations. During this magical night, art takes over the city, taking over iconic sites, historic monuments, parks and even the streets. It's a free event open to all, allowing the public to rediscover their city in a new light.
The MABA, Musée d'Art et d'Histoire de Nogent-sur-Marne, one of the region's cultural gems, is taking part in this year's Nuit Blanche. Housed in a magnificent 19th-century mansion, MABA offers an enchanting setting for lovers of art and history. It houses a rich and varied collection of works of art, ranging from painting and sculpture to photography and graphic arts. The museum is also renowned for its commitment to contemporary art, regularly presenting temporary exhibitions by contemporary artists.
For Nuit Blanche, MABA offers a unique setting that lends itself perfectly to nocturnal exploration, and has also planned an exceptional program, combining permanent exhibitions and ephemeral installations. A chance to see the museum and its works in a different, more mysterious and poetic light. A unique experience not to be missed!
The Nuit Blanche 2024 program at MABA :
- K.O. debout, a publication transpired in three rounds
During the Nuit Blanche and as part of S'print, MABA will be in permanent loop and will be turning pages with Susanna Shannon, artistic director and publisher ofIrrégulomadaire, and Étienne Hervy, curator of S'print. The object of their labor: the book I am King, the pictorial biography of Mohamed Ali compiled in 1975 by David King. From these pages were born other pages and other matches addressed to visitors. A publishing project and an educational undertaking, K.O. debout is also conceived as a performance and an interactive device which, in the time of its production, raises questions prior to its publication. The imagery of sport, the aesthetics and culture of the page, the work of word and form are all activated in a close and tumultuous association with the visitor.
- Parcours de santé
A primary text-image relationship: visuals and captions that invite (inter)action rather than contemplation. The health trail is, in its own way and in a minor mode, a genre in its own right, re-enacted in black silkscreen on Pearloid. Seven graphic designers, illustrators and artists have each designed a stage of the journey, free from the imperatives of the genre, as long as the engagement of the body aligned in the extension of the eye and the flexible articulation of text and image remain. In the run-up to the exhibition, several occurrences of the itinerary are activated in the public space without any further preamble or warm-up. It's up to each and every one of us to position ourselves to at least cross the distance that separates us from aesthetics and expressions that are foreign to us. And it's up to each and every one of us to find the right posture in the face of such rightly unreasoned injunctions.

- King Pong in the library
During the Nuit Blanche, ping pong will be played at night in the library, on one of the boards set aside for a graphics studio. As well as playing the game: how to overcome, bend or constrain this rigorous grid to the point of disrupting the game it invites.
- Act II of the opera Terre, air, feu, by Maxime Rossi
Maxime Rossi revisits the idea of the hairdresser's salon. A space for socializing and connecting, offering a place where intimate experience becomes collective: we get our hair done, we dance, we exchange, in the midst of a musical marathon where we meet a singer blending lyrical song with sounds from overseas and a multi-instrumentalist against the backdrop of the noise of lively, vibrant arenas.
Free admission, open to all.
