From 25 May to 06 June 2017, in the Festival Rendez-vous à Saint-Briac, the Frac Bretagne, Le Modèle, a solo exhibition by Sharon Kivland will be presented.

“Sharon Kivland is an artist who collects, a gleaner in search of a feminine imagery that could be called popular. Using images (engravings from old journals, postcards, illustrations, photographs from women’s magazines) and contemporary texts under the double illumination of clothing and literature the artist draws an image of a woman between stereotype and emancipation.”
Catherine Elkar, director FRAC Bretagne

The exhibition Le Modèle will be presented in the former presbytery of Saint-Briac and forms an introduction to the summer exhibition Armel-Beaufils, le regard des femmes, which will run from 01 July to 03 September 2017, curated by Sharon Kivland
