"The hardest thing is to surround it, to fix its limit where it fades into the penumbra along its edge. To choose it from among the others, to separate it from the light that all shadows secretly, dangerously, breathe." - Drenched Co
-From Julio Cortázar, ‘To Dress a Shadow’, in Around the Day in Eighty Worlds.
Comment: "For this exhibition I had to revisit the definition of architecture. Where lies its shores and what lays claim to its sovereign territories? Consider suggestions of architecture from sculpture and vice versa. I started looking for pieces within the show that did not fit.. that for which it "will repulse the gesture that seeks to crown it with a long blonde wig.." How for instance does Sol LeWitt’s biographical cut-outs allude to architecture? And even more fascinating was for me the complicity of light and shadows in architecture, in photography and in this exhibition. Awesome! " - JayZee
