Alain Gomis Retrospective at MK2 Bibliothèque as Centre Pompidou Goes Off-Site

The Centre Pompidou, closed for renovation work, is presenting an off-site retrospective devoted to the sensory body of work by Franco-Senegalese screenwriter and director Alain Gomis. The programme runs from 7 to 20 October at the MK2 Bibliothèque in Paris. The retrospective is staged outside the museum's own walls because the Centre Pompidou is shut for works. Gomis is described as the filmmaker behind a sensory oeuvre, and the event is presented as a showcase of his small lights, or petites lumières. The screening series is organised by the Centre Pompidou under its hors les murs format, which takes programming into venues across the city while the institution is unavailable. The MK2 Bibliothèque serves as the host venue in Paris. The retrospective covers Gomis's work as both scénariste and réalisateur. It opens on 7 October and closes on 20 October.
