Georges Rousse | Space & Time





In Georges Rousse, we see an actor in search for another mode of spatial experience, based on his critical analysis of space. A sensibility of deconstruction emerges in these settings, in the tension between inside and outside, between floors and ceilings, between direct and reflected sights, in this aesthetic of chaos, confusion and imbalance.

Peter Coffin at the Barbican



The latest installation in The Curve is by New York- based artist Peter Coffin. In this, the ninth new commission, Coffin explores various models of perspective and challenges the way in which we perceive space. In his sculptures, installations, photographs and videos, Peter Coffin examines our knowledge and interpretation of the world with curiosity and wit, borrowing from numerous disciplines, such as art history, science and New Age beliefs to test his ideas about the way things work and exist.
