Mai-Thu Perret
& Olivier Mosset,
'Balthazar'
—
'Balthazar':
The donkey,
a symbol of
humility.
The idea:
To highlight
the crossroads
between the
divergent
practices of
Mai-Thu Perret
& Olivier Mosset.
Perret:
Swiss /
Vietnamese
installation-
based artist
whose multi-
layered
discourse
combines
feminist
politics with
avant-garde
sensibilities,
exploring how
objects function
within and
influence the
social systems
they inhabit.
Mosset:
Swiss-born
artist committed
to questioning
painting through
his affiliation
with 'The BMPT'
— challenging
the notions of
'savoir faire',
expertise,
originality,
and the
painting’s
alleged
uniqueness.
