Is there a book that you would share with the Word?
With this question, Marilá Dardot invites the public to take part of her installation called The Library of Babel. Since two months the artist asks people to lend books that they consider necessary in any library. The idea was to create a provisory collection of books which will be stamped and available during the exhibition time. Other books can also be added to this library during the period of the exhibition, among them, on the first floor of the gallery, the public can also see other works created by Dardot, like “Insone” (2005), and the videos “I would prefer yes” (2005) and “If I had land under my feet” (2004). After the end of The library of Babel, all the books are going to be sent back to the owners.
