Encuadernación de tapa blanda. Condición: Bien. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Bien. In his work, Christian Andersson presents alternative ways of interpreting the truth in order to illustrate that there is no single objectively true story. He poses questions about thinking and seeing to make us aware of the idea systems that penetrate us and that are continually evolving during the course of history. As a point of departure in art and architectural history, popular culture, literature, and the canon of western civilization, Andersson reminds the viewer that there are always alternatives, other ways of looking at the world. He presents forgotten or repressed facts in a new way, challenging patterns of thought that too often have become rigid. Andersson s art offers plenty of space for meandering thoughts, and explores the boundaries between plausible and implausible. Juxtaposing emotion and reason, he establishes enough momentary doubt to test our powers of comprehension. In the exhibition From Lucy with love, references to the history of art and architecture are clear in two large-scale works. His sculpture To R.M for EVER is clearly based on René Magritte s 1950 painting The Art of Conversation, and The Angel of the Hearth is a surrealistic reworking of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe s classic Barcelona chair. Mies van der Rohe s Barcelona Pavilion also plays a prominent role in the exhibition. The work for which the exhibition is named, From Lucy with love, is an incomplete timeline, a contemporary cabinet of curiosities that negotiates the museum s role as both conservation archive and conveyor of truth. With the help of thorough research, a sense of humour, and a bit of chaos, Andersson gives us a new, personal version of history.
