Elmgreen & Dragset - Bonne Chance

Detailní popis produktu

​

Richly illustrated by a photographic campaign carried out during the exhibition at the Centre Pompidou-Metz, this catalogue features an in-depth interview with the artists by Chiara Parisi and two essays by philosophers Quill R. Kukla and Emanuele Coccia. Kukla examines the exhibition through the prism of gamification—exploring how space controls our movement, perception, and actions without our awareness.

Emanuele Coccia, meanwhile, questions the irony and absurdity inherent in Elmgreen & Dragset’s work, showing how their faithful reproductions of reality highlight the strangeness lurking within everyday experiences. Absurdity thus becomes not a measure of existence’s unbearable weight, but a tool to subvert normative logic.

The book concludes with an illustrated chronology of Elmgreen & Dragset’s 30 major exhibitions, providing a comprehensive overview of their artistic journey.
