37dB : " Corps Perdu " by Lamin Fofana

from 01/16/2026 to 02/15/2026

The Palais de Tokyo Listening Room in connection with the exhibition season “ECHO DELAY REVERB”

As part of the “ECHO, DELAY, REVERB” exhibition season, Lamin Fofana presents a programme centred on “Corps Perdu”, an original sound work forming the first movement of a musical trilogy inspired by the seminal writings of Aimé and Suzanne Césaire, Kamau Brathwaite, and Dionne Brand. Corps Perdu continues Lamin Fofana’s ongoing practice, notably his investigation into the transmutation of theoretical and poetic texts into musical creation. The title is drawn from Aimé Césaire’s 1948 poetry collection.

The programme dedicated to Lamin Fofana’s Corps Perdu will unfold across two other events at the Palais de Tokyo:

37db program

The programme of the 37dB of Palais de Tokyo is designed to host occasional events, while remaining permanently accessible during exhibition seasons with an audiovisual programme that operates on an on/off basis, allowing it to be activated or deactivated depending on the events taking place. This space provides a place to pause and reflect within the exhibition route, offering a seasonal selection specifically curated for each period. Artists, musicians, and composers may also extend into other, more event-based formats, such as concerts and DJ sets, including in other areas of the Palais de Tokyo.
