Title: Silence
Description: This title gathers a corpus of contemporary works by 25 artists, ranging from Arman's 'Accumulations' to Hiroshi Sugimoto's photographs, and together they present a world that is both strange and familiar, what curator Simone Menegoi refers to as "the story of a planet that has become uninhabitable for reasons unknown..." Part scientific experiment, part fictional narrative, the effect of these traces that our civilisation leaves behind is one of a reversal of history, as if the works between the pages, artifacts of our contemporary era, are being observed through the eyes of an archaeologist or anthropologist from the future.0Exhibition: Nouveau Musée National de Monaco - Villa Paloma, Monaco (2.2.-3.4.2012). 0.
