Published on the occasion of the exhibition Unknown Quantity at Fondation Cartier, Parijs 29.11.2002-30.03.2003. Unknown Quantity will attempt to explore one of the most important issues raised in Paul Virilio's most recent writings: the increasing development of accidents as an indirect consequence of man's inventions. Through a selection of documents and the work of contemporary artists, the exhibition aims to open up a discussion on the accident and its impact on our world.
