A project by Darius Koehli

The exhibition, which will be open to the public until 12 June, relates the transformation of the industrial ruins of the neighbourhood before the 22@ days into sparkling, designer buildings and modern technological complexes. Ghostly images of streets inhabited with animals both real and imaginary, from cats and dogs to dragons, phoenixes and dinosaurs, etc.... extinct creatures from a past barely recalled, which wander about landscapes that are disappearing, that are ceasing to be what they are. The approach is nostalgic and critical but with a heavy irony and a strong sense of humour..
