Camille Henrot,
‘Days are Dogs’
@ Palais de Tokyo
—
‘Years are
measured by
the journey of
the Earth around
the Sun; months
derive from the
position of the
Moon; days
correspond to
a rotation of
the Earth.’
Curator:
Daria de Beauvais.
“Days are Dogs”:
Is French-born,
New York-based
Camille Henrot's
third ‘carte blanche’
solo exhibition with
Palais de Tokyo,
for which the
multidisciplinary
artist questions
the relationships
of authority and
fiction that
determine our
existence
—
The exhibition as
a whole operates
through the
composition and
recomposition of
archipelagoes of
artworks – works
by Camille Henrot
herself, some of
them presented
for the first time,
as well as those
by international
artists with whom
she entertains a
dialogue.
‘Each room
evokes a day of
the week – an
open world where
conventions,
emotions, and
individual freedom
are playfully
confronted with
one another.’
On view at:
Palais de Tokyo
—
13 Avenue du
Président Wilson,
75116 Paris,
France.
Closes:
January 7, 2018.
