00:00Welcome to Mediantv, and the book in this chronicle is the second novel by the professor of art theory, Bruno Nassim Aboudrar,
00:17the author of a first novel, Ici bas, by Gallimard in 2009, as well as several essays, including Qui veut la peau de Vénus by Flammarion in 2016,
00:26and Dessins de la colère by Flammarion in 2021, he has just published Les Week-Ends, which is his second novel.
00:33Through the biography of a place, a villa in the Lysière, a forest in the Seine-Saint-Cloud, Bruno Nassim Aboudrar,
00:40a book with modesty, the story of an exiled Hungarian-Jewish family over several generations, from the Third Republic to the post-independence Moroccan years,
00:49through the occupation, a great text on the loss and the sensitive experience of the passage of time, embodied by a series of ordinary fates, taken in the torment of the 20th century.
01:00A novel with an intimate atmosphere, carried by precise and sharp writing. I invite you to listen to Bruno Nassim Aboudrar.
01:09For this family, it was a village house, that's why I called this novel Les Week-Ends,
01:14but it's also the story of their neighbors, of what happens to their neighbors, daily life affairs, but which can also be quite dramatic.
01:24I don't want to spoil the novel too much, but a direct neighbor behaves very badly during the occupation and will be punished in a particularly awful way.
01:34Others, on the contrary, are resistant and will not have an easy way out of the war, we'll see.
01:43And I also tried to be very attentive to the evolution of the house itself and the gardens around it.
01:50So I also tried to tell the story of this very specific region, the Seine-Saint-Cloud,
01:57which was first very countryside at the end of the 19th century and then gradually became a suburb.
02:03A residential suburb, of course, but perhaps less and less chic, less and less luxurious, with more and more constructions.
02:12And I wanted to try to describe like that too, over a century, the evolution of the landscapes, the evolution of the garden.
02:19Bruno Nassim Aboudrar, born of a Moroccan father and a Hungarian mother, is now a professor of art sciences at the University of Paris 3,
02:27good news, in the department of cultural mediation.
02:30His research themes cover the figures of Christ after the resurrection, the aesthetic effects of the veil, the accidents of painting and the sky in Perth.
02:38I suggest we listen to Bruno Nassim Aboudrar again.
02:43Something that interested me in this novel is this exercise that consists in inventing memories.
02:49And I think we can read it as a novel, partly autobiographical, which it is not really.
02:56Especially since almost everything happens before my birth.
02:59So it's not really autobiographical.
03:01It's not the real biography of a family either.
03:04And that's partly the case.
03:06And the fact that I was looking for the reader and the reader, if I succeeded, they should not make the difference between what really existed and what is completely invented.
03:17And it's like that.
03:19You were talking, I was talking about boundary lines.
03:24Well, there's also that one.
03:25The line between fiction, the imaginary and memory.
03:30And that's a field that I try to work in the whole novel and that interests me and that I hope makes the reading pleasant.
03:42And music now.
03:44And zoom on the Congolese singer Gims, who received the award for the best male artist at the 40th Victory of Music, the annual award ceremony of French music.
03:55Arrived in France at 2 years old with his family.
03:57He knows poverty, hostels, the separation of his parents.
04:01It is by following this rough path that Gims, his first alias, Maître Gims, ended up joining the group of Parisian rappers Section Dassault.
04:12And in 2013, Gims takes off solo with Subliminal, carried by J'me tire et Bella.
04:19Successes through which the rapper demonstrates his facet of a singer with a powerful voice.
04:24Let's listen to Gims.
04:26This victory has a particular taste because there are already a lot of memories.
04:32A lot of memories.
04:33I think of 2016 with Sa Paix Comme Jamais.
04:35And there again, in 2025, it was just for me.
04:41I didn't even think about it.
04:43I just made music.
04:45I don't even know how to explain it.
04:49Honestly, I'm full of emotions, full of mixed feelings.
04:52I still don't realize it.
04:54It's so beautiful to leave on this note.
04:57At the same time, I don't want to spoil everything.
05:00As I told you, I crossed deserts and I don't want to go back to the desert.
05:05I think it's beautiful that it ends on a note like that.
05:09It's been 20 years that it lasts.
05:11Personally, 10-15 years for the general public, I think it will be my last tour.
05:17Also, between rap and pop, tinted with African sound, echoing the Congolese rumba,
05:22he not only seduces the youth, but a wide audience of different generations and social classes.
05:28In 2019, he became the first French-speaking rapper to fill the stadium with 72,000 spectators.
05:36And his peace as ever, Bella Spider, the Congolese singer and rapper Gims,
05:41has been climbing in the top 10 rankings for a decade.
05:45And today, on streaming platforms Spotify and Deezer, just like on TikTok,
05:49Gims is one of the top 10 artists most listened to in France in 2024.
05:55I suggest you listen to this excerpt.
