FIVE BILLION YEARS

I thought I should give you all a little gift from the artworks I saw at Palais de Tokyo in Paris last November in a exhibition entitled Five Billion Years. The video podcast is of the works I could actually record… some were so experimental that the lighting conditions were impossible. This exhibition had local artist Mark Handforth and the actual video has artists I found to be excellent and brought a hmmm/smile to my face.

Here is the beginning of the exhibition’s statement:
5,000,000,000 YEARS is an exhibition that places itself within the FIVE BILLION YEARS chapter by way of a mutation. Synonymous yet clearly dissimilar, the exhibition and the program-chapter that contains it create an endless feedback loop, each one mutating as it transfers back into the other. read the rest here.(once there, scroll down for the English version)
