The artist has selected works by M. Abramovic, G. Anselmo, C. Andre, M. Cantor, P. Coffin, C. Gaillard, J. Kosuth and S. Xhafa from the Giuliani Collection to create “atmospheres” or interventions which call attention to their characteristics, while appropriating them to create multi-layered narratives and new meanings.

INSTITUT DU MONDE ARABE

Zada Hadid. Une architecture

“I think through our architecture, we can give people a glimpse of another world, and enthuse them, make them excited about ideas. Our architecture is intuitive, radical, international and dynamic. We are concerned with constructing buildings that evoke original experiences, a kind of strangeness and newness that is comparable to the experience of going to a new country,” states Zaha Hadid.

NEW YORK PHOTO FESTIVAL

Hope: Between Dream and Reality
Curated by Enrico Bossan

“I have chosen a group of young photographers who neither provide a faithful representation of reality nor create an illusion, but who have impressed me with their ability to capture the essential aspects of life. Photography may portray the world at its bleakest but we must remember to be positive towards the future and the opportunities that lie ahead.”
