Alex Besikian
Editions Matière
Edition of 300
"Alex Besikian was not born at the time of the Osaka World Expo in the 1970s. Despite everything, he summons this memory in fragments, reconstructing it like a puzzle by cutting out period magazines and commemorative works. , by redrawing bits of photos, slogans, emblematic figures of the exhibition. What exhibition is it then? What is Alex Besikian looking for through these heroic ruins blackened with graphite, if not a park of 'attraction broken, an era of progress and spectacle reduced to a few splendid dross?"- Editions Matière
