The Recovery of Discovery<\/em>, Cyprien Gaillard, published by Verlag der Buschhandlung Walther K\u00f6nig.<\/p>\n

Die Erhaltung eines Monuments scheint auch immer seine Zerst\u00f6rung zu beinhalten. Um st\u00e4dtische Architekturen, Kulturdenkm\u00e4ler und Reliquien zu bewahren, erfolgt nicht selten ihre \u00dcberf\u00fchrung an andere Orte. Der Transfer \u00e4ndert nicht nur die Geschichte des Ursprungsortes, sondern f\u00fchrt auch zu einer brachialen Umdeutung des vor der Zerst\u00f6rung Bewahrten. F\u00fcr seine Ausstellung in den KW Institute for Contemporary Art schuf Cyprien Gaillard (geboren 1980 in Paris) eine neue, raumgreifende Arbeit, die erst durch die aktive Mi\u00dfachtung ihrer Form die Komplexit\u00e4t ihrer Bez\u00fcge aufzeigt. Gleich einer \u00f6ffentlichen Amnesie, verloren in der ausweglosen Interaktion mit dokumentiert in einer langen Kleinbildserie die v\u00f6llige Zerst\u00f6rung der Pyramide.
\n*****
\nPreserving a monument goes hand in hand with destroying it. In order to preserve architecture, cultural monuments and relics, they are often relocated, allowing urban displacement to arise – leading to the disappearance of the concept of autonomous geography and archeology. The dislocation of a monument does not only alter the history of its original location, but also leads to a radical re-interpretation of the monument itself. For his exhibition at KW Institute for Contemporary Art, Cyprien Gaillard created a new work containing complex implications, which will only be revealed through an act of complete defiance. Similar to public amnesia, lost in the hopeless interaction with the monument, the gradual destruction
\nbecomes a part of the aesthetic of resistance. The catalogue which is published on the occasion of the exhibition “Cyprien Gaillard. The Recovery of Discovery” at KW Institute of Contemporary Art in Berlin, depicts the gradual destruction of the sculpture and includes contributions by Hal Foster, Marion von Osten, and Susanne Pfeffer as well as a conversation with Cyprien Gaillard and Susanne Pfeffer.<\/p>\n
