Alice Diop's "Geste de Consolation" with Miu Miu

Missed out on Alice Diop’s Geste de Consolation?

LOVE takes you inside the world of the Miu Miu-commissioned exhibition for this year’s Art Basel, with exclusive conversations with Diop, co-curator and our Contributing Editor Mehdi Meklat, Ivorian choreographer Nadia Beugré, and her incredible troupe of five dancers, spanning Côte d’Ivoire to Brazil.

Together, they reflect on what it means to represent Black women and femininity, as Diop puts it, to repair the “fetishizing gaze to which centuries of art history have confined” them.
