The year 2025 marks 30 years of existence for CAN Centre d'art Neuchâtel, and to open this new program, the curatorial team has imagined an exhibition based on a particular moment in the history of the art center: the year 2003.
2003 is a “blank”, with no trace of an exhibition in the archives, no project, no accounts, nothing. Or almost nothing... One of the only allusions to that year is an article in the March 18, 2004 edition of “Le Courrier”, announcing the reopening of the art center after a year's sabbatical. So, with an approach as much introspective as recreational, an invitation was extended to various artists and guests, the idea being to draw inspiration from this hole in the past to imagine a particular work, scenario or approach, and create the exhibition (2003).
(2003) is based on the idea of questioning how we conceive of our own history, how we construct our memory, but also the choices we make today to tell our story in the future, between what we agree to record for posterity and what we forget or deliberately choose not to tel
