The discussion will focus on his work and the selection of photographs from the Beijing Silvermine project featured in the exhibition, in dialogue with Liu Shiming’s sculptures. We will explore the aesthetics of their works, their resonances and mimetic qualities, as well as Thomas Sauvin’s approach to this exceptional project.Thomas Sauvin (France, 1983) is a Paris- and Beijing-based artist. Since 2009, he has developed Beijing Silvermine, a large-scale archival project born from the rescue of hundreds of thousands of color negatives that were bound for destruction in a recycling plant on the outskirts of Beijing. Now comprising more than one million anonymous photographs produced between 1985 and 2005, the archive offers an unprecedented record of vernacular photography in China at the end of the twentieth century. Constantly expanding, it functions as a platform for artistic, historical, and cross-cultural inquiry, while contributing to a broader reflection on collective memory.Sauvin’s work has been exhibited at the Museum of Contemporary Photography in Chicago, the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing, and the Guangdong Museum of Art, among other venues.Over the past decade, he has published fifteen photobooks with publishers including the Archive of Modern Conflict (UK), Jiazazhi (China), Skinnerboox (Italy), The(M) Editions (France), and VOID (Greece), alongside multiple self-published artist books. His publications are held in the collections of the MET, the Tate, the Victoria and Albert Museum, the Bibliothèque nationale de France, and the Centre Pompidou. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/new-york/artist-talk-conversation-with-thomas-sauvin/100001982691743377 - **Event Categories**: Art, Exhibitions, fine-arts - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fartist-talk-conversation-with-thomas-sauvin-tickets-1982691743377 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: New York - **state**: NY - **country**: United States - **location**: Liu Shiming Art Foundation - **lat**: 40.75187 - **long**: -73.9806148 - **full address**: Liu Shiming Art Foundation, 15 East 40th Street, New York, United States ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Liu Shiming Art Foundation (https://allevents.in/org/liu-shiming-art-foundation/19589343) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/4b4a4105012cfc9dca8d6c2eb4bb8b6096cd9d6451cecf6c0b08bd6101a13ddc-rimg-w1200-h600-dcffffff-gmir.jpg?v=1770659283 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/43fd5fb2d0a7494bf5496c2e98b3733fea766e2e0cdda14440a8a0395fec4ccd-rimg-w400-h400-dcffffff-gmir.jpg?v=1770659282 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Tue, 24 Feb, 2026 at 05:00 pm - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** Liu Shiming Art Foundation, 15 East 40th Street, New York, United States - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 0 up to 0 USD - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Liu Shiming Art Foundation - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** Art, Exhibitions, fine-arts - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Artist Talk: Conversation with Thomas Sauvin ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Artist Talk: Conversation with Thomas Sauvin", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/4b4a4105012cfc9dca8d6c2eb4bb8b6096cd9d6451cecf6c0b08bd6101a13ddc-rimg-w1200-h600-dcffffff-gmir.jpg?v=1770659283", "startDate": "2026-02-24", "endDate": "2026-02-24", "url": "https://allevents.in/new-york/artist-talk-conversation-with-thomas-sauvin/100001982691743377", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "Liu Shiming Art Foundation", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "15 East 40th Street", "postalCode": "10016", "addressLocality": "New York", "addressRegion": "NY", "addressCountry": "US" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "40.75187", "longitude": "-73.9806148" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "On the occasion of the opening of his exhibition Archives at Liu Shiming Art Gallery on February 24.", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-04", "availabilityEnds": "2026-02-24", "validFrom": "2026-04-04", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/new-york/artist-talk-conversation-with-thomas-sauvin/100001982691743377" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "USD", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-04", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-04", "url": "https://allevents.in/new-york/artist-talk-conversation-with-thomas-sauvin/100001982691743377", "price": 0, "name": "General Admission" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Liu Shiming Art Foundation", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/liu-shiming-art-foundation/19589343" } ] } ] ```
