ANTONIO MENCHEN
RUN/RIBBON/RAIL
Site-specific installation
Curated by Erich Weiss
Under the title ‘Run/Ribbon/Rail’ ANTONIO MENCHEN presents on the top floor of Saint-Martin Bookshop a site specific mise-en-scene, strategically conceived to seduce us to discover some images selected from the artist’s personal archive.
Conscious of the specific aura of the space and its legendary status as a fashion designer’s workshop, the images forming part of the photographic installation refer in a certain way to the artificial, theatralized world of the fashion industry.
The objects represented on the selected pictures are often objects we identify as belonging to universes that fascinate the artist: cinema, light and sound equipments, machines or vintage luxury design.
