The Territorial Collectivity of Martinique is organizing a presentation of the winning projects from the "Cesaire, Another Horizon" call for proposals: Launched to mark the 110th anniversary of Aimé Césaire’s birth, this call for projects aimed to foster the emergence of innovative artistic and cultural creations that offer a fresh perspective on the work of the Martinican poet, playwright, and politician. This presentation evening will allow the public to discover the works of the three winners selected for the originality and quality of their approach to Aimé Césaire’s work and legacy. Each offers a fresh perspective on the world of Aimé Césaire through contemporary and innovative artistic forms. On the program: Screening of an episode from the 2D/3D animated series *Poesie de l’hippocampe* Produced by Quatre Croisees Films, this audiovisual creation draws inspiration from Aimé Césaire’s poetic universe through a format designed specifically for young audiences. Lecture: The Process of Rewriting in *Et les chiens se taisaient* Presented by the association *Ecritures Theatrales Contemporaines en Caraibes*, this talk will highlight the work of rewriting at the heart of Cesaire’s dramatic writing. Presentation of the AI for Césaire Project Led by the Centre de Recherche en Arts Actuels (CRAA), this project combines cultural transmission, visual arts, and technological innovation. The public will discover an exhibition of 60 to 80 ceramic pieces inspired by *La Tragedie du Roi Christophe*, created by fifth-grade students from Carbet, Lamentin, and Le Prêcheur; a video montage of drawings from the workshops; an artistic performance in tribute to Jacques Martial, a literary presentation, and an installation exploring Aimé Césaire’s relationship with Afro-Caribbean practices and religions.

Introduction It’s been two years already… since two gazes met through the medium of painting… Two worlds (United—Verses)… Two breaths… Two ways of inhabiting color One brings forth the warmth of ochres, reds, and golds Like a memory of the sun The other seeks, within the material, the discreet traces of the invisible, the echo of unanswered questions... Between them... a bridge...poetic and pictorial, where the eye plunges into the understanding of “Who are you…?” And… of “Who am I”… We no longer worry, as hesitation becomes the mother (sea) that washes away doubts... Friendship having taken root... Gently... like a tree that grows... silently... Since then... the canvases respond to one another... Color meets silence... Light dialogues with... shadow... And each work extends a conversation (confidences) begun long before words... For painting... perhaps that is what it is... To offer... To offer to the Other Horizon... To discover... that at the end of the path... we were looking... Already.... The same Sky... Biography Francois Philippe ASTAR Passionate about photography and painting. Through his photographs, he highlights the different facets of Martinique’s heritage and nature. Through his painting, he questions who we are and where we are headed. Christian PRESENT is a Poet—a self-taught painter since 2019. Urgency is the primary matter. Matter is, the world-cry is. There is the moment and the insistence on capturing the cellular effervescence.
