Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster: chronotopes & dioramas

September 23, 2009 - June 27, 2010 (project commissioned by Dia)


"Commissioned by Dia, Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster’s latest project offers an annex to the world renowned research library at the Hispanic Society of America. Titled chronotopes & dioramas, it expands and updates the historic collection with a range of twentieth century literature by some forty authors, whose texts will be installed in a trio of dioramas by reference to their place of origin in one of three distinct geographical regions: the desert, the tropics and the North Atlantic."
