STRASBOURG.
Considered to be one of the most important artists of the contemporary scene, Daniel Buren (b. 1938) is the author of a considerable output of both artistic and theoretical work. Very briefly summarized, his most emblematic contribution could be seen as his understanding and use of the on-site concept.
The exhibition Like Child’s Play, Works On-site, 2014 presents two new works created by Daniel Buren for the Strasbourg Modern and Contemporary Art Museum (MAMCS). They have been installed on the MAMCS’ 1500 m2 glazed façade and in the 600 m2 temporary exhibition area.
The project is in two parts that fully complement each other and in both cases give the visitors a chance to rediscover in a new light the architecture and temporary exhibition spaces of the museum.
