Lagon Revue: French Atlantide Newsletter (collaboration with the Under the Leaf Book Fair)

Séverine Bascourt @institut_serigraphique & @sammystein_ exhibition at Pitted Dates (Helsinki, Finland) with Under the Leaf Art Book Fair.

“In the 1950s, amateur ufologists exchanged fanzines containing reports from contactees, stories of unexplained sightings, and enigmatic photographs.Some shorter publications, available by subscription, circulated in the form of a ‘newsletter’ They were used to share recent discoveries, repost articles, and provide updates on the editorial team’s activities. The France Atlantide project, which brings together publications, documentary archives, and installations, explores the spaces occupied by individuals whose ideas, beliefs, and convictions defy common sense. For the exhibition “France Atlantide Newsletter” at Pitted Dates in collaboration with Under the Leaf, we present this research in fragments, including drawings, photos, and documents collected during our visits. Our residency in Helsinki is also an opportunity to print a zine and, who knows, to discover new and unique territories.”
