Much more than a retrospective panorama of 20 years of career, it is an introspective within the work of the artist who reveals, through an exchange with Jérôme Sans, critic and curator of exhibitions, an accomplice of the artist, a free and sincere reflection, made of anecdotes, or quotations on what the memories of these exhibitions inspire him. Looking into his personal archives, probing his memory, he becomes his own commentator. About fifty invitation cards reproduced on both sides and views of exhibitions are placed in parallel, like so many indications of a rich international career. So many graphic microcosms that have also contributed to writing and punctuating the history of Adel Abdessemed's career.
