MONUMENTA is an ambitious artistic encounter unmatched anywhere in the world, organized by the French Ministry of Culture and Communication. Each year MONUMENTA invites an internationally renowned contemporary artist to appropriate the 13,500 m² of the Grand Palais Nave with an artwork specially created for the event. Daniel Buren, one of the most highly recognized and honoured artists, by both his peers and the public, will take up the challenge in May and June 2012.
An essential album for the visit of the exhibition. Fully illustrated, this book includes an exclusive interview with Daniel Buren, a group of commented and illustrated artworks, the key concepts of the artist's work, preparatory sketches and photographs of the exhibition. |
