His work has been included in the world's top exhibitions (including Documenta 11, 2003, and the 48th Venice Biennale, 1999), and he was recipient of the prestigious Prix Marce ..."

"The four displays are built according to the logic: War/War, War/Art, Art/War, and Art/Art. Each one has a different dominant term, ... To me, as an artist, the problem is: How can I take a position, and how can I give form to this position beyond political, ethical, and aesthetic particularities? ... These works are inspired by the decorative “nail and wire” craft. ... universality in opposition to (in conflict with) a particular ..."

"Throughout its diverse manifestations, the utopian entails two related but contradictory elements: the aspiration to a better world, and the acknowledgement that its form may only ever live in our imaginations. Furthermore, we are as haunted by the failures of utopian enterprise as we are inspired by the desire to repair the failed and build the new. Contemporary art reflec ..."
