DOMINIQUE GONZALEZ-FOERSTER

“In my view, the room is a natural dimension of art, the first place where one hangspersonal or collective things. It’s a mental space where one composes an ambiance. [...] Myrooms are like images, but which one can enter. One is physically surrounded by the image,rather like in the cinema. Besides, I have this obsession with a narrative, a narration, evenspatial.¹”—Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster.
