Lassana Sarre's Post-Impressionist Homage to Malian Women's Tontines
Lassana Sarre's exhibition 'La puissance des Nôtres' at Galerie Polaris explores the memory of Malian tontines (women's rotating savings groups). The artist transforms the notebooks, stories, and gestures of these female gatherings into a post-impressionist pictorial quest, avoiding documentary approaches in favor of layered pigments that evoke memories and sensations. The exhibition runs until July 24, 2026, at 15 rue des Arquebusiers, Paris 3rd arrondissement.
