TH.2058

Installation piece at Tate Modern by Dominique Gonzales-Foerster which combines sound, video, lighting, beds and sculpture to give a sense of a post-apocalyptic world. It creates a world where it has rained constantly for years which has changed the way that people live and react with each other. The sculptures are all huge based on the idea that they have grown like thirsty tropical plants. I liked the way it combined new pieces such as the beds with known sculptures. I’d not seen a Louise Bourgeois spider before and found it worked beautifully with Calder piece “Flamingo”. Reviews Times Guardian Daily Telegraph Independent Evening Standard
