Modern©ité: lecture by Jordi Colomer
A lecture by the artist Jordi Colomer (1962) in concurrence with the exhibition ‘Modern©ité'
in which he is one of the five participants. In many of his sculptures
and videos Colomer investigates the relationship between architecture
and decor. In ‘Anarchitekton' (a reference to the work 'Architekton' by
Malevich) he shows a character carrying cardboard scale models of
modern architecture in Barcelona, Bucharest, Brasilia or Osaka. This
way he simultaneously denounces the reality of these constructions and
celebrates the utopia that they once upheld.
