November - January 2026
Lassana Sarre is a visual artist working primarily in painting. His practice explores memory, transmission and representation, weaving personal histories into collective narratives. Moving between painting and writing, he sets lived experience in dialogue with art history, leaving gestures visible, traces exposed and surfaces unfinished, so that each canvas becomes a space of tension and presence rather than resolution.
During his residency at PART, Lassana Sarre will extend a body of research developed with museum guards and security staff at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris, moving between painting and writing to explore presence, visibility and the stories carried by bodies that remain essential yet often unnoticed.
PART International Art Residency Austria is a programme on behalf of the Federal Ministry for Housing, Arts, Culture, Media and Sport. Refurbished to meet modern ecological standards between 2023 and 2025 with funding from the EU Recovery and Resilience Facility and the Austrian Federal Government, the area currently houses 13 studios for local artists and six international residence studios and THE HALL.
