Marc Augé sur notre rapport au monde et à l'espace

«Nous vivons dans un monde que nous n’avons pas encore appris à regarder. Il nous faut réapprendre à penser l’espace.»

Augé, Marc. (1992) Non-lieux, Introduction à une anthropologie de la surmodernité. Paris : Seuil, p.48

Marc Augé sur la notion de sens

« Ce qui est nouveau, ce n’est pas que le monde n’ait pas, ou peu, ou moins de sens, c’est que nous éprouvions explicitement et intensément le besoin quotidien de lui en donner un : de donner un sens au monde, non à tel village ou à tel lignage. Ce besoin de donner un sens au présent, sinon au passé, c'est la rançon de la surabondance évènementielle qui correspond à une situation que nous pourrions dire de « surmodernité » pour rendre compte de sa modalité essentielle : l’excès. »

Augé, Marc. (1992) Non-lieux, Introduction à une anthropologie de la surmodernité. Paris : Seuil, p.41-42

« For his student thesis project at the Bartlett School of Architecture, Thomas Hillier produced an immersive narrative world, complete with origami-filled hand-cut book pages and an elaborate model of the story's architectural landscape. Hillier's project was called The Emperor's Castle and it was inspired by the work of Japanese printmaker Hiroshige. »

Piano and drawing.

« These two artists will join forces for the first time and we believe that the result will be simply striking as the two original exceptional artists will outperform their selves - South African-born, Berlin-based visual artist Robin Rhode and multiple Grammy Award-winning Norwegian pianist Leif Ove Andsnes who is represented by EMI — will collaborate on Mussorgsky’s epic piano suite Pictures at an Exhibition. Leif Ove will be performing the piano recital, while Rhode has made a series of films that are to be are projected on screens behind the piano in an attempt to recreate the experience of looking at paintings while listening to Mussorgsky’s epic piano suite. » Marcia Argyriades for Yatzer
