PALAIS de TOKYO - PARIS, FRANCE
A fresh perspective on great movements of humanity
“Metamorphoses” (Part I of The Trilogy of the Moderns) was displayed for the first time at France’s leading contemporary art museum in 2008.
Into the heart of the human condition. Inspired by the iconography of the grand masters of the history of painting, the authors explore the issues affecting the entire world at a time when the process of globalisation is accelerating exponentially: ecology; migration; the emancipation of oppressed peoples; fundamental rights and freedoms; “poor food” and hunger; genetics and the fight against ageing; ethnic and economic wars …
The ambition of “Metamorphoses” is not to judge but to suggest areas for reflection, to reopen the debate about the problematic areas inherent in human history, to reflect a journey whose beginnings are lost in the mists of time.
