Visual Arts – Encounters
The idea behind this Encounters series devoted to contemporary art is to let an artist decide which subjects he or she wants to discuss in the book. Each artist's book therefore offers a specific experience in terms of content. In accordance with this principle, each artist chooses a person with whom he or she would like to share this exchange due to certain elective affinities. What is the idea behind this meeting? At the very least to have these works serve, in a certain way, as an artistic and political laboratory of the present.
