How does a private art collection become public? Who was Hans Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza? These seemingly easy (and not so easy) questions are at the heart of Walid Raad’s new project “Cotton Under My Feet,” conceived for the Museo Nacional Thyssen-Bornemisza.
TBA21 Claudia Comte, After Nature
We think we know what the Ocean is, how it looks like, even how it feels. But, actually, we only know the surface or the images that were made for our eyes. How does a turtle perceive a coral? Or a whale? Or is a star fish really a fish? And the corals? Are they aware of their own colours? Claudia Comte has invested years in understanding forms, but also, the contexts that made these forms possible.
