Description: "Thousands of representations of the gesture to say 'NO,' to shout 'STOP,' or to raise the banner 'THEY SHALL NOT PASS' exist. They are known by women, men, and children, by workers, artists, and poets, by those who cry out and those who are silent, by those who weep, who mourn and those who make them. 'Uprisings' is a montage of these words, gestures, and actions, which defy submission to absolute power"--Page 8.
Notes: Catalog of exhibition held at the Jeu de Paume, Paris from October 18, 2016, to January 15, 2017, and four other places between March 2017 and Novemeber 2018.
