The ‘Autoportrait’ exhibition by Thomas Clerc invites visitors to explore the complex question of identity through the lens of literature. It opens with the inquiry: “Who am I?” This journey examines the self-portrait as a literary genre, tracing its evolution from Montaigne to Barthes. Through essays, reflections, and artistic expression, Clerc emphasizes the intimate relationship between identity and literature. Opening night on 21 May 2026 features a performance by Clerc, adding dynamism to the event. The exhibition runs from 22 May to 29 November 2026, accessible on public holidays from 2 PM to 6 PM. This collaboration between Imec – Abbaye d’Ardenne, Région Normandie, and DRAC Normandie ensures an engaging intellectual exploration.
