A FRENCH CONVERSATION
1975. John Gerassi interviews Simone de Beauvoir twenty five years after the first edition of The Second Sex.
2017. Mariana Obersztern y Agustina Muñoz reproduce this interview in an investigation that tries to re-enact the material as an archive while bringing light to current issues. The act of reproducing what was once said and of incarnating the words of others, opens to new questions, thoughts and dilemas.
This piece was commissioned by Amalia Sanz and Catalina Labarca from FILBA (International Literature Festival of Buenos Aires) in 2017.
