American artist Jill Magid’s work, “Jill Magid: Woman with Sombrero, The Barragán Archives” (2013), is currently on display at the Musée national d’art moderne. For this event, the artist will present a performance of Dearest Federica , which will be followed by a screening of her video The Proposal (2018) and a discussion in the Petite Salle. 

This art project highlights the recent privatization of access to the work of the Mexican architect and engineer Luis Barragán (1902-1988). Considering the law as an artistic medium in its own right, Jill Magid is interested in its biases, flaws and possible détournements.
