Galerie Chantal Crousel is pleased to present Nos années 70 (chambre) (1992) by Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster in its second space at 5 rue de Saintonge.
"In my view, the room is a natural dimension of art, the first place where one hangs personal or collective things. It's a mental space where one composes an ambiance. [...] My rooms 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, even spatial.1"—Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster.
