Description: "Yto Barrada's exhibition The Sample Book presents a new body of work that builds on the artist's recent major cycle Faux Guide and her study of fossils in Morocco. Ever since her first major series, A Life Full of Holes: The Strait Project (1998-2004), Barrada has been interested in informal and parallel economies as survival strategies. Her work went on to explore, among other subjects, such forms of 'resistance' as smuggling, contraband, the subversion of public space, satire and humor, and magic"--Secession WWW site, viewed November 7, 2017.
