Three scientists discuss the challenges of space research, the latest discoveries, and imaginary worlds.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Didier_Queloz\">Didier Queloz</a>, winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics for the discovery of exoplanets, speaks with <a href=\"http://blue-shift.co/\">Camille Bonvin</a>, a cosmologist, and <a href=\"http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Violaine_Sautter\">Violaine Sautter</a>, a planetary geologist and member of NASA’s Curiosity and Perseverance missions. The conversation, centered around a thermos, camping mugs, and a picnic, draws a connection to Ray Bradbury’s short story <em><a href=\"http://classicsofsciencefiction.com/2025/03/20/the-million-year-picnic-by-ray-bradbury/\">A Million-Year Picnic </a></em>(1946), part of his *The Martian Chronicles*: a family must leave Earth and finds its own reflection while searching for Martians.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nEven today, the question remains: What do we learn about ourselves when we look at Mars? What kind of life—past or future—are we searching for in space? This film is the result of a collaborative, interdisciplinary creative process that took place at the <a href=\"http://www.vidy.ch/fr/evenement/a-million-year-picnic-conversations-sur-mars/\">Théâtre Vidy-Lausanne in 2024.</a><br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>AFTER THE SCREENING:</strong><br>\r\nFollowing the screening, there will be <strong>a discussion</strong> between director <a href=\"http://www.paulinejulier.com/\">Pauline Julier</a> and <a href=\"https://www.vidy.ch/en/artist/eric-vautrin/\">Eric Vautrin</a>, playwright at the Vidy Theater.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n---<br>\r\n<strong>Biography of Pauline Julier</strong><br>\r\nPauline Julier (b. 1981, Geneva) is an artist and filmmaker whose practice explores the connections humans forge with the world around them through stories, rituals, knowledge, and images. Weaving together documentary, theoretical, and fictional elements, her films and installations reflect the complexity of human relationships with their environments and foster a dialogue between science and myth to renew our perspective on the world.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nHis works have been exhibited at major contemporary art centers, institutions, and festivals around the world, including the Centre Pompidou (Paris), the IAC (Villeurbanne), the Loop Festival (Barcelona), Visions du Réel (Nyon), Wiels (Brussels), the Centre d’Art Contemporain (Geneva), the ZKM (Karlsruhe), Tokyo Wonder Site, the Museum of Modern Art (Tanzania), the Palazzo Grassi (Venice), as well as in New York, Madrid, Berlin, Zagreb, the TIFF Cinematheque (Toronto), and the Pera Museum (Istanbul).<br>\r\n<br>\r\nA two-time recipient of the Swiss Art Prize (2010, 2021) and the “Mondes Nouveaux” grant from the French Ministry of Culture (2022), her solo exhibition *Naturalis Historia* toured internationally after its opening at the Swiss Cultural Center in Paris (2017). She presented a major solo exhibition at the Aargauer Kunsthaus in 2024 and is currently completing her first feature-length fiction film, *Les Indes*, scheduled for release in the fall of 2026.<br>\r\n \r\n<figure class=\"image\"><a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/les-culturelles-dautomne-2026/\"><img alt=\"Programme complet des Culturelles\" height=\"182\" src=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/LES_CULTURELLES_1920x1080_programme_complet.png\" width=\"600\"></a>\r\n<figcaption>© 2026 EPFL, Laura Persat</figcaption>\r\n</figure>\r\n</div>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-09-03T16:18:02", "last_modification_date": "2026-09-28T10:49:06", "link_label": "Programme complet des Culturelles", "link_url": "https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/les-culturelles-dautomne-2026/", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "Forum Rolex", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==RLC%20E1%20240", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "<a href=\"http://www.paulinejulier.com/\">Pauline Julier</a>, artiste et cinéaste & <a href=\"https://www.vidy.ch/en/artist/eric-vautrin/\">Eric Vautrin</a>, dramaturge au théâtre de Vidy", "organizer": "<a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/\">Festival Les Culturelles</a> (Pôle Culture VPI)", "contact": "<a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/veronique.mauron\">Véronique Mauron Layaz</a>", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "film, cosmologie, science-fiction", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/121699/", "category": { "id": 9, "code": "MANIF", "fr_label": "Événements festifs et culturels", "en_label": "Cultural events", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/2/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/21/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/22/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/79/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/145/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/179/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 72516, "title": "Julian Sartorius Concert - RLLRLRLLRRLRLRLRLLRLRLR", "slug": "julian-sartorius-concert-rllrlrllrrlrlrlrllrlrlr-2", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/julian-sartorius-concert-rllrlrllrrlrlrlrllrlrlr-2", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33782/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33782/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33782/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-10-13", "end_date": "2026-10-13", "start_time": "12:00:00", "end_time": "13:00:00", "description": "<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW167897111\"><strong>Two concerts:</strong></div>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li><strong>Tuesday, October 13,</strong> <strong>at noon: <a href=\"https://juliansartorius.bandcamp.com/album/rllrlrllrrlrlrlrllrlrlr\">RLLRLRLLRRLRLRLRLLRLRLR </a></strong><br>\r\n\tDuration: 1 hour.<br>\r\n\tWith: Julian Sartorius, Romane Bouffioux, Jeanne Larrouturou, Julien Mégroz et Julien Annoni<br>\r\n\t </li>\r\n\t<li><strong>Tuesday, October 13,</strong> <strong>at 7:00 p.m.: solo </strong><br>\r\n\tDuration: 30 minutes<br>\r\n\tAs part of the opening for <a href=\"https://memento.epfl.ch/event/nonc-normally-open-normally-close-installation/\">NO/NC</a></li>\r\n</ul>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW167897111\"><br>\r\nKnown for his unique, playful, and highly virtuosic approach to his instrument, internationally renowned drummer <a href=\"http://www.juliansartorius.com/\">Julian Sartorius</a> will present RLLRLRLLRRLRLRLRLLRLRLR, a score composed for a percussion ensemble in which “R” stands for right hand and “L” stands for left hand. Played continuously by the ensemble throughout the piece, the motif evolves under Julian Sartorius’s direction as he adapts the instrumentation (adding, substituting, or removing objects or instruments).<br>\r\n<br>\r\nA journey through minimalism, repetition, musical progression, and a deluge of sound. The concert stems from an experiment in which the addition, removal, or modification of basic elements generates new content. It also incorporates playfulness, the freedom to assemble elements, and the surprise of unexpected sound combinations. Much like many scientific protocols, this method—here applied to music—suggests avenues of convergence between scientific and creative practices.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"315\" src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/hZ4HRiNTQC4?si=RXzPTogaFJIKH2dK\" width=\"560\"></iframe><br>\r\nAt 7 p.m. that evening, as part of the opening reception for the installation <strong>NO/NC (Normally Open/Normally Closed)</strong>, co-created with Archizoom, Julian Sartorius will give a solo concert.<br>\r\n---<br>\r\n<strong>Biography of <a href=\"http://www.juliansartorius.com/\">Julian Sartorius</a></strong><br>\r\nDrummer, percussionist, and artist Julian Sartorius shapes sounds into unique forms. His precise and rich rhythmic patterns are true explorations of the hidden sounds of found objects and prepared instruments, bridging the gap between organic timbres and the language of electronic music. Julian Sartorius has released numerous solo albums, created audiovisual works, collaborated with musicians, writers, and artists, and performed in everything from intimate venues to festival stages.</div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW167897111\"><br>\r\nTrained at the jazz schools in Bern and Lucerne under the guidance of musicians such as Fabian Kuratli, Pierre Favre, and Norbert Pfammatter, Julian Sartorius developed a unique musical approach at a very early age. Fascinated by small-scale variations, the interplay of tension and release, density, and vibration, he has created projects such as the 12-vinyl box set *Beat Diary* (Everest Records, 2012), comprising 365 rhythmic pieces accompanied by a book of photographs; the daily series of eight-second loops “Morphblog” (2013–2019); and “Depot,” an audiovisual installation for 16 speakers and 16 screens, presented at the Kunstmuseum in Thun. For his album “Hidden Tracks: Basel – Geneva” (Everest Records, 2017), Julian walked more than 200 kilometers with his drumsticks and recording equipment, playing and capturing a multitude of sounds and textures from objects he encountered along the way.<br>\r\n </div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW167897111\">In recent years, Julian Sartorius has collaborated with numerous musicians, including Sophie Hunger, Sylvie Courvoisier, Gyda Valtysdottir, Dimlite, Shahzad Ismaily, and Dan Carey. His instantly recognizable percussion work also appears on recent albums by Kate Tempest, Matthew Herbert, and James Zoo. Julian Sartorius has toured and performed in North and South America, Asia, and Europe, sharing the stage with artists such as Marc Ribot, Deerhoof, Faust, Jaki Liebezeit, and Arto Lindsay.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n--- <br>\r\n<a href=\"http://usinesonore.ch/\"><strong>Usinesonore</strong></a><br>\r\nThe Usinesonore association shares its passion for music by promoting it through various activities in the Canton of Bern and beyond. It was previously invited to EPFL in 2017.<br>\r\nFounded in 2006 by Julien Annoni and Olivier Membrez, two young Bernese Jura natives passionate about contemporary music, the Usinesonore association organizes events centered on today’s music.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe association’s activities focus on three main areas: organizing the Usinesonore Festival, the Ensemble We Spoke, and organizing parallel events (traveling concerts, custom-designed events, outreach activities, etc.).<br>\r\n<br>\r\nEach event is shaped by careful consideration of how to share it with the audience. Usinesonore devotes all its energy to ensuring that the audience can experience the artistic moment, that they do not leave indifferent, and that they feel heard and supported throughout their experience.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Partner: <a href=\"http://usinesonore.ch/\">Usinesonore</a></strong><br>\r\n \r\n<figure class=\"image\"><a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/les-culturelles-dautomne-2026/\"><img alt=\"Programme complet des Culturelles\" height=\"182\" src=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/LES_CULTURELLES_1920x1080_programme_complet.png\" width=\"600\"></a>\r\n\r\n<figcaption>© 2026 EPFL, Laura Persat</figcaption>\r\n</figure>\r\n</div>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-09-03T16:34:42", "last_modification_date": "2026-09-28T15:15:03", "link_label": "Programme complet des Culturelles", "link_url": "https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/les-culturelles-dautomne-2026/", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "Hall SG", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==SG%20094.11", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "<a href=\"https://www.juliansartorius.com/\">Julian Sartorius</a>, batteur<strong> ; </strong><a href=\"https://usinesonore.ch/\">Usinesonore</a>", "organizer": "<a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/\">Festival Les Culturelles</a> (Pôle Culture VPI)", "contact": "<a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/veronique.mauron\">Véronique Mauron Layaz</a>", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "musique, concert, batterie", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/121701/", "category": { "id": 9, "code": "MANIF", "fr_label": "Événements festifs et culturels", "en_label": "Cultural events", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/2/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/21/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/22/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/79/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/145/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 72518, "title": "Secouons-nous les eaux - Performance", "slug": "secouons-nous-les-eaux-performance-2", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/secouons-nous-les-eaux-performance-2", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33780/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33780/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33780/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-10-14", "end_date": "2026-10-14", "start_time": "12:00:00", "end_time": "13:00:00", "description": "<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW196505929\">The <a href=\"http://hydromondes.org/\">Hydromondes</a> collective invites the EPFL community <strong>to explore the relationship between science and the bodies of water</strong> that surround us, in an artistic and festive setting.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nOn stage: </div>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>Marin Schaffner, ethnologist</li>\r\n\t<li>Jeanne Mermet, engineer </li>\r\n\t<li>Gabriel Cotte, hydrologist </li>\r\n\t<li>Clémence Mathieu, illustrator </li>\r\n</ul>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW196505929\"><br>\r\nThe event, which could be called a “festive gathering,” is a mix of performance, lecture, and debate.

The collective employs sensory cartography, creates drawings and texts, and composes music. On June 12 and 13, 2026, the Lake Geneva Bioregional Assemblies took place at the Vidy Theater, during which Hydromondes brought together a myriad of Franco-Swiss collectives to create a cross-border community dedicated to the care of the waters.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe collaboration between the collective and <a href=\"http://applicationspub.unil.ch/interpub/noauth/php/Un/UnPers.php?PerNum=1277309&LanCode=37\">Nathalia Capellini,</a> a historian at the University of Lausanne (UNIL) and instructor in the EPFL’s SHS program, gave rise to the performance *Le Léman Cyborg*, presented on May 7, 2026, as part of the *Culturelles de printemps* festival. Nathalia Capellini’s course titled “Infrastructures” had fueled the project. This collaboration between the collective and the academic community will therefore continue for the Culturelles in October 2026, with a more participatory format—somewhere between an artistic presentation and a town hall meeting—in a playful atmosphere.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>>>> Free admission; <a href=\"http://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/ffSBMqP21Y\">light refreshments provided upon registration</a></strong></div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW196505929\"> \r\n<figure class=\"image\"><a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/les-culturelles-dautomne-2026/\"><img alt=\"Programme complet des Culturelles\" height=\"182\" src=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/LES_CULTURELLES_1920x1080_programme_complet.png\" width=\"600\"></a>\r\n\r\n<figcaption>© 2026 EPFL, Laura Persat</figcaption>\r\n</figure>\r\n</div>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-09-03T16:58:47", "last_modification_date": "2026-09-29T18:00:01", "link_label": "Inscription à la collation", "link_url": "https://forms.cloud.microsoft/e/ffSBMqP21Y", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "Hall MED", "url_place_and_room": "https://plan.epfl.ch/?room==MED%200%2094.22", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/1/?format=api" ], "speaker": "Collectif <a href=\"https://hydromondes.org/\">Hydromondes</a> ; Marin Schaffner, ethnologue ; Jeanne Mermet, ingénieure ; Gabriel Cotte, hydrologue et Clémence Mathieu, dessinatrice ", "organizer": "<a href=\"https://www.epfl.ch/campus/art-culture/fr/les-culturelles/\">Festival Les Culturelles</a> (Pôle Culture VPI)", "contact": "<a href=\"https://people.epfl.ch/veronique.mauron\">Véronique Mauron Layaz</a>", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 3, "fr_label": "Entrée libre", "en_label": "Free" }, "keywords": "Léman, corps aquatique, performance", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/121705/", "category": { "id": 9, "code": "MANIF", "fr_label": "Événements festifs et culturels", "en_label": "Cultural events", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/2/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/4/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/5/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/8/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/21/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/22/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/79/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/145/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 72521, "title": "Le Chantier - Film screening and discussion with director Jean-Stéphane Bron", "slug": "le-chantier-film-screening-and-discussion-with-dir", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/le-chantier-film-screening-and-discussion-with-dir", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33779/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33779/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/33779/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-10-15", "end_date": "2026-10-15", "start_time": "18:15:00", "end_time": "20:15:00", "description": "<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW74632052\"><strong>France / Switzerland, August 2025<br>\r\nFilm, documentary, 94 min. / VOSTEN<br>\r\nFollowing the film, <a href=\"http://www.visionsdureel.ch/anne-delseth-nouvelle-directrice-artistique-de-visions-du-reel/\">Anne Delseth</a>, artistic director of <a href=\"http://www.visionsdureel.ch/\">Visions du Réel</a>, will lead a discussion with director <a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-St%C3%A9phane_Bron\">Jean-Stéphane Bron</a> and the audience.</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nBehind the closed doors of an extraordinary construction site, filmmaker <a href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-St%C3%A9phane_Bron\">Jean-Stéphane Bron</a> spent four years documenting the construction in Paris of the <a href=\"http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path%C3%A9_Palace_(Paris)\">Pathé Palace cinema</a>, a luxury theater designed by Italian architect Renzo Piano for the group led by producer Jérôme Seydoux, one of the most influential figures in French cinema.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nHis documentary <a href=\"http://www.swissfilms.ch/fr/movie/le-chantier/4d8f6696d1d740e392cf73c68db29f15\">Le Chantier</a> chronicles an extraordinary architectural adventure by offering a real-time portrait of a society in miniature, driven by a common goal: the construction of movie theaters for the coming century.

Following the screening, there will be a discussion with director Jean-Stéphane Bron.<br>\r\n---</div>\r\n\r\n<div class=\"BCX2 Ltr OutlineElement SCXW74632052\"><strong><a href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean-St%C3%A9phane_Bron\">Jean-Stéphane Bron</a> </strong><br>\r\nJean-Stéphane Bron (born 1969 in Lausanne) is a graduate of the École Cantonale d’Art de Lausanne (ECAL). His documentaries address contemporary issues such as the crisis of democracy, the economic crisis, and the rise of populism, using dramatic techniques similar to those found in fiction. Among them, *Connu de nos services* (1997) addresses the scandal surrounding the political dossiers compiled by the Federal Police in the 1970s and 1980s. *Mais im Bundeshuus / Le Génie helvétique* (2003), one of Swiss cinema’s major box-office hits, follows the work of a parliamentary commission tasked with drafting a law on genetic engineering. *The Blocher Experiment* (2013) sparked intense controversy. *Cleveland vs. Wall Street* (2010), about the subprime mortgage crisis, was presented at the Cannes Film Festival (Directors’ Fortnight) and nominated for a César Award in France. His film *The Paris Opera* (2017) was subsequently widely distributed around the world. With this film, which drew more than 200,000 viewers to theaters, Jean-Stéphane Bron won the Swiss Film Award in the Best Documentary category for the third time in 2018. In 2021, Jean-Stéphane Bron released *Cinq nouvelles du cerveau*, a feature-length film that explores various mind-boggling questions related to advances in the fields of neuroscience and artificial intelligence. Between December 2021 and May 2022, he filmed the series *Ma rue de l’Ale* for RTS on his own street in Lausanne; the series was a huge hit with audiences.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nExploring reality through the eyes of those who shape it. Jean-Stéphane Bron’s unique art lies not merely in presenting the facts, but in understanding both the people involved and the systems within which they operate—systems that shape their actions.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Partner: <a href=\"http://www.visionsdureel.ch/\">Visions du réel</a></strong><br>\r\n \r\n<figure class=\"image\"><a
