A card game designed by Chloé Déchery and Marion Boudier, in collaboration with illustrator Éric Valette, to help develop a “culture of feedback” across artistic creation, presentation and education.

How can we talk about what we have seen, enjoyed or not understood after a performance or a work-in-progress presentation? What methods can we develop to ensure that feedback conversations between artists, companies, venue managers, programmers and audiences become a resource for artistic work and working conditions?

Le Jeu de cartes du Retour offers around forty bilingual cards, divided into eight categories. It builds on the ongoing work of researchers Chloé Déchery and Marion Boudier, which includes their book Artistes-chercheur·es, chercheur·es-artistes – Performer les savoirs, published in September 2022 in the ArTeC series.
