MIGROS MUSEUM DESIGN OF TRAGEDY

2002

Zurich

Switzerland

The chance to work with the visual artist MTH and display her work was given by the art dealer Marinotti who promoted the exhibition and the idea of designing the “hardware” of the installations beside the exhibition layout and mise en scène over the 1200m2 space at the migros museum. The idea of the space was to share the visit into two different experiences through two ways: one with the installations and one as architectural promenade through abstract volume as a kind of physical installation and meditation moment on the side of the visual art experience. The exhibit starts going through a filter of 3mt high block letters TRAGEDY that introduces the dark space of the video installation ending with the 3/3/3 aluminium cube of the “for a better world” installation. At the end of the video spaces the second space has been left enlighten from the natural light trough the big openings of the industrial space. This space host the last installation of the artist: the sacrifice on an altar of herself.
