– BDFIL can be visited in a Bilal-style setting

The Lausanne festival presents a fine program of exhibitions. Rich and documented content, in an urban wasteland environment. State of play.

The decor may surprise. A few steps from Lausanne station, the three flagship exhibitions of BDFIL can be visited in the open air, in an environment of urban wasteland that Enki Bilal would not deny. Creaking trains, untimely whistles, loudspeaker departure announcements: we are far from the cozy atmosphere of the former Romandie cinema, where most of the BDFIL exhibitions of the past took place . For his 17^e edition, the festival innovates, developing in particular in the Rasude complex, inside and around a former postal sorting centre. “These premises were no longer used, we reinvested them”, comments Léonore Porchet, co-director of BDFIL with Gaëlle Kovaliv.
