Sokrates
This space, inspired by the 16th century Kunst und Wunder kammer or Cabinets of Curiosities, is arranged according to Einstein's equation, which defines the relationship between space - time and the experience one feels entering and looking up at the natural sky and then the artificial created by the curtain of Swarovski crystals, and the works of art that are between the two elements, illustrating the juxtaposition of different cultures and historical periods.
Within this space we seek to explore the affinities of pre-Columbian, African, Nepalese and Himalayan artistic traditions with contemporary art. The ethnographic pieces establish a dialogue with contemporary works, following the line of exhibitions such as Primitivism in the 20th Century Art, at the MoMA museum in New York in 1984 (curated by William Rubin) and Les Magiciens de la Terre (curated by Jean- Hubert Martin at the Pompidou Center and La Villette in Paris, in 1989).
