In April 2019, Sophie Nys presented the solo exhibition Family Nexus at KIOSK. In psychology, a family nexus stands for a vision that is shared by the majority of family members, often unconsciously and for several generations long, and is upheld in the context of events both within the family and in its relationship to the world. Among other, the monumental, stretched out net in the dome space was a symbol of this family dynamic. Two years later, the theme is still working its way through the above mentioned heads. The shared interest of Nys, Gourdon, Aerts and Peacock leads to a collaboration in the form of a book that, just like the exhibition, can be read as a net of (un)coherent intrigues and knots in which no position can be neutral. They set up a network of characters. Together they represent all kinds of (human) connections. Family Nexus is a story about everyone and no one in particular. Who in this book is playing the role of the Nobody, the household’s so-called 'identified patient', or scapegoat, and which pots and pans has slipped through this character’s fingers? Co-production: KIOSK and BOEKS.

The Sassoons were prosperous as bankers and treasurers to the Ottoman sultans in nineteenth-century Bagdad, until they were driven out by religious persecution. Assuming the precarious status of stateless Jews, the family dispersed, establishing businesses in Mumbai, Hong Kong, Shanghai, and London. This volume tells the sweeping global and intergenerational story of the Sassoon family through the works of art they collected. Lavishly illustrated with paintings, porcelain, manuscripts, Judaica, and architecture, it highlights family members, including numerous accomplished women, who were patrons of art and sponsors of remarkable buildings in their rarefied, upper-class worlds.

Que devient le chant d'un artiste après qu'il a disparu et n'est plus là pour s'occuper de son œuvre ? Les héritiers décrit et analyse la succession de vingt-deux grands artistes et écrivains célèbres de génération en génération, qu'il y en ait huit (comme pour Montaigne et Diderot) ou dix (Mme de Staël). Fierté ou indifférence, défense ou dénigrement, affection ou haine: tous les comportements se rencontrent et s'expliquent. Charles de La Fontaine égare la correspondance de son père, Pauline de Simiane détruit volontairement celle de sa grand-mère Mme de Sévigné, Carl-Philip Emmanuel Bach publie les partitions de son père qui lui sont échues tandis que son frère Wilhelm Friedmann vend les siennes au premier venu. Michel Monet et Paul Cézanne junior alimentent des vies de nababs en vendant les toiles de leurs pères alors que Jean Renoir trouve le temps, entre deux grands films, d'écrire une magistrale biographie de son père. Le frère et héritier universel de Maurice Ravel se laisse dépouiller de l'héritage par un couple de domestiques machiavéliques, les fils de Chagall et de Simenon consacrent des livres à leurs relations chaotiques avec leurs géniteurs, à l'opposé d'Anne Wiazemsky qui a consacré plusieurs livres où apparaît, de manière tendre, son grand-père François Mauriac. Premier livre sur ce sujet, Les héritiers, fondé sur une recherche rigoureuse et précise, livre une passionnante galerie de portraits parmi les plus grands artistes, et, bien au-delà, une réflexion sur notre rapport à l'art.Les artistes, par ordre chronologique : Michel de Montaigne, Françoise de Sévigné, Jean de La Fontaine, Jean-Sébastien Bach, Denis Diderot, Germaine de Staël, Alexandre Dumas, George Sand, Gustave Flaubert, Alphonse Daudet, Paul Cézanne, Claude Monet, Auguste Renoir, Henri Matisse, Maurice Ravel, Francis Picabia, Fernand Léger, Amedeo Modigliani, Marc Chagall, François Mauriac, André Malraux, Georges Simenon.
