- Book Synopsis
- This book is the first compilation of the history of the MAMCO (Musée d'art moderne et contemporain, Geneva).It offers a diachronic path through the institution's first 22 years of existence, from its foundation in 1994 up to 2016, and presents some 100 exhibitions via illustrations, plus a brief introductory text describing the characteristics and formats of the shows, and some of the traces they have left in the collection. From Martin Kippenberger's retrospective in 1997 to John M. Armleder's extravagant Amor vacui, horror vacui show in 2007, by way of exhibitions on Marcia Hafif, Franz Erhard Walther, Tatiana Trouvé and Steven Parrino, the reader will discover hundreds of images published here for the first time. An article by architect Erwin Oberwiler, who supervised the renovation of the disused factory housing the museum, provides details about the building decisions and aesthetic choices that have contributed to the institution's identity.
