| Description |
Born in Argentina and based in Berlin, Tomás Saraceno creates projects in dialogue with forms of life and life-forming, rethinking dominant threads of knowledge in the “Capitalocene” era and recognizing diverse modes of being. This book, published to accompany a solo exhibition at the Serpentine Gallery in London, presents his ongoing research on proverbs. The proverbs collected here are an invitation, an exercise in collective memory, for some to change habits and not the climate. Saraceno pursues the question of whether such popular sayings carry the knowledge to forecast other climates. What if we could all re-learn how to read the weather without relying on the digital cloud? |
