El Anatsui Bleeding Takari II El Anatsui (born 1944) is a Ghanaian sculptor active for much of his career in Nigeria. He has drawn particular international attention for his iconic "bottle-top installations", [1] distinctive large-scale assemblages of thousands of pieces of aluminium sourced from alcohol recycling stations and sewn together with copper wire, transformed into metallic cloth-like wall sculptures in a way that can "draw connections between consumption, waste, and the environment".

Parisian artist, Baptise Debombourg, creates mind bending three-dimensional installations The turbo wave of the 80’s left its mark on the industry and on the whole cultural situation in Western Europe. It became a model of behavior, since having a « turbo » in your own car was giving you this feeling of superiority among other common cars. It was meaning you were more powerful than them. The sound effect gives the sensation of a real physical power. To advance, the people from Eastern Europe put some more «tuning, customizing» everywhere – for example in their folk music. The installation « Turbo » is actually dealing with this testosterone competition, and is putting in jeopardy this representation of the masculine power. Elements: wood installation Dimensions: variable size, H 3, 2 x 7, 3 x 3 m Realisation time: variable time, 145 to 35 hours

Tadashi Kawamata

Tadashi Kawamata is an artist who transforms our environment, he works in the midst of demolition and construction. These projects have taken place all over the world and range from intimate transformations of a single house or apartment to the whole scale reconfiguration of towns. Usually using scrap or reclaimed materials, mostly wood, Kawamata sets about building new and unusual structures; a bridge between an apartment block and a museum, a wooden walkway that leads from a town centre to a lakeside, slum dwellings constructed in a picturesque park. Kawamata's aim is to turn these environments inside out, and present the viewers with a completely fresh view of their surroundings, whether it's from a walkway built three metres above the town square or by a room transformed with a suspended ceiling of reclaimed doors. These projects make us question our environment, the way it is constructed and how we interact with it. Born in Hokkaido, Japan in 1953. Tadashi Kawamata has had many one-man exhibitions and projects throughout Europe, the United States and Japan including the Serpentine Gallery, London, the Kunsthalle, Recklinghausen and the Meguro Museum of Art, Tokyo. Tadashi Kawamata exhibited at the 40 th Venice Biennale

Lukas Vasilikos My guess is that this photo is about the Greek crisis, with their economy in difficulty in relation to the rest of Europe. The country has become fragmented by this and the photographer has used fragments of two different images https: //lukasvasilikos. co m/gallery/fragments/

DÉCOLLAGE Décollage is a French word meaning literally to unstick, generally associated with a process used by artists of the nouveau réalisme (new realism) movement that involved making art from posters ripped from walls The artists involved, such as Raymond Hains, often sought out sites with many layers of posters so that the process of décollage took on an archeological character and was seen as a means of uncovering historical information. They exhibited their ripped poster artworks as aesthetic objects and social documents. From 1949 Hains made work from posters that he tore from the walls of Paris. http: //timothyharney. com/home. html Raymond Hains Jacques Mahe de la Villegle Jazzmen 1961 Tate Mimmo Rotella
