THE ARMORY SHOW 2015
March 5-8, 2015
New York, USA
For our first participation in the Armory show, we proposed to recreate the atmosphere of a contemporary library modeled on the American library. «A space dedicated to a collection of reading materials such as books, periodicals and newspapers arranged in a certain sequence», that's the first definition of a library. However, the notion of "library" has several other meanings. Therefore, mfc-michèle didier's booth display will try to play with this polysemy in a subtle way: as a public space, the library is a place for reading, for consultation, for information and research. When a private place, it becomes a space of intimacy and secrets, creating a particular and privileged relationship with its owner.
Artists on display: Robert Barry, On Kawara, Mathieu Mercier, Annette Messager, Muntadas and Allen Ruppersberg
