A propos de cet article

Z : 15 x 21, Hardcover, cloth binding, 168 pages, 96 color illustrations - In this volume Roman Ondák has brought together some of his works that deal with time, measurement, displacement of people and places, presence and absence, and surveying along with those that make visible what evades the visual, namely boundaries and experience. Alongside a complete documentation of the exhibition Measuring the Universe, where the museum attendants checked the body size of the visitors throughout its duration, one also finds Failed Fall (2008), a greenhouse's floor filled with dried autumn leaves, Across that Place (2008), the story of the no longer existing Canal Zone by the Panama Canal, and Concealed Episode (2007), which recounts the fictional escape to Miami South Beach of a parachutist from Cuba.
