Momentary Monument
Momentary Monument
Momentary Monument is Turin-based artist Lara Favaretto’s first artist’s book, an extension of her project of the same title, which was shown as part
of the exhibition “Making Worlds / Fare Mondi” in the 53rd Venice Biennial, curated by Daniel Birnbaum. Including texts by
Daniel Birnbaum and Chris Sharp, this publication expands the project shown at
the Venice Biennial. It is divided into three parts: the first is a prologue,
explaining how a swamp is created; the central part tells the stories of twenty
disappeared individuals, characters such as Dutch artist Bas Jan Ader, who was
lost in sea in 1975; and an epilogue describing the change in the surrounding
landscape of the swamp, which doesn’t quite look the same.
