Elmgreen & Dragset - Bonne Chance

Autoři: Emanuele Coccia, Quill R. Kulka

Richly illustrated by a photographic campaign carried out during the exhibition at the Centre Pompidou-Metz, the catalogue features an in-depth interview with the artists by Chiara Parisi and two essays by philosophers Quill R. Kukla and Emanuele Coccia. Quill R. Kukla approaches the exhibition through the prism of gamification, in particular the way in which space controls and sculpts our movement, our perception and even our ability to act, without our being aware of it. This text explores the everyday environments recreated by Elmgreen & Dragset to reveal the extent to which architecture and urban planning regulate our lives, as if we were playing a huge game.

Emanuele Coccia, for his part, questions the irony and absurdity inherent in Elmgreen & Dragset's work, for whom the reproduction of reality highlights the strangeness inherent in every banal experience. Absurdity is no longer a measure of the unbearability of existence, but a detail that enables us to subvert a normative logic.

The book concludes with an illustrated chronology of Elmgreen & Dragset's 30 major exhibitions.
