Olivier Mosset, Jacob Kassay
Untitled
2013, site-specific installation
Mirrors and ballet barre, 280 x 1500 cm
Struck by the radical, highly efficient flexibility of ballet rehearsal studios, with their mirrors and dance barres, Olivier Mosset (CH, 1944, based in Tucson) decided to create a new installation reproducing this setup. Through discussions with Jacob Kassay (US, 1983, based in Los Angeles), who has his own interest in mirrors, the pair ended up co-authoring the work. The installation will be produced materially in dimensions adapted to the space at Le Commun (280 x 1500cm) and will modify how the space is perceived from the first floor.
