IMAGINED MUSEUM
OF CONTEMPORARY ART


The modern museum is the grave of contemporary art: contemporary art must invade the City, to stimulate the citizen and to become more appreciated.

The modern museum does nothing other than to distance the onlooker from contemporary art because it is forbidden to photograph, to touch the work, to get too close, to breathe, to observe for more than 15 minutes….

The "imagined museum of contemporary art" is the first museum existing to the world, free and always open, where it is possible to touch the works exhibited and even to photograph them!

It is not a museum in the town but it is a museum for the town and for its citizens.

This provocation about contemporary art in reality is also to be an invitation for the citizen to stop believing that “art” is for a select few, and shut away only in galleries or in museums:
art is everywhere.

The catalogue/manifesto is the map of this virtual museum where visitors (as tourists) can walk and look at the city from a different point of view...
